PDF Ebook A Study of Landscape Architecture Design Methods

Submitted by antoq on Sat, 02/13/2010 - 02:34

How do different methods employed by landscape architects impact the design outcome? This paper identifies and defines design methods in landscape architecture that may be classified as part of four internal and external connections and structures categories. Methods are further examined through two design exercises. In the first design exercise, the identified methods are individually applied to the same simple design which is used as a control. The only variable changed is the method used to design. The resulting designs are shown and analyzed. In the second design exercise, three different methods are applied to a complex design. Similar to the first design exercise, all variables are held constant except for the design methods. The resulting design outcomes are shown and analyzed. One conclusion from this work recommends landscape architecture designers use at least one method in each of four categories: 1) Modeling Systems, 2) Interrelationship and Dependencies, 3) Incorporation and Adadaption, and 4) Structure Problems in order to explore complex design issues more thoroughly.

This thesis centers on the key question: What effect do different design methods employed by landscape architects have on the design outcome?
One component of the design process in landscape architecture is methodology, which should be a conscious choice of methods to achieve a desired result. However, many times the choice of methodology is not given much thought. The designer chooses a methodology that she or he is comfortable with or has used in the past with no little or no thought on how this choice meshes with the objective of the design. (Lynch, 270)

Ebook Financial Liberalization and the Changing Characteristics of Nordic Stock Returns

Submitted by puput on Fri, 09/24/2010 - 07:32

The process towards more integrated financial markets during the last decades suggests that the investment opportunities as well as the environment for politically induced policy decisions have changed. Financial deregulation of the stock markets could itself be seen as a sequence of policy decisions aiming at removing different barriers preventing cross-border trade of financial assets. Examples of such barriers relevant for the Nordic markets are legal restrictions on ownership of foreign stocks or on foreign ownership of domestic stocks and currency controls preventing free cross-border capital flows. Not only the removal of legal barriers has created more integrated stock markets, also the rapid development and more widespread use of information technology have probably contributed significantly to the integration process. The main purpose of this paper is to document to what extent this liberalization process could be associated with changes in return behavior on the four largest Nordic stock markets, Sweden, Finland, Denmark and Norway.
