“…The physically distributed and socially segmented structure of architectural and building processes can profit from easily transportable, widespread and relatively low-cost means for communication and information processing. Research products include experimental and prototypical applications to building logistics, inspection and other aspects of construction management (Wang & Shih, 2002;Yabuki et al, 2002;Ibrahim et al, 2004;Lertlakkhanakul et al, 2005), site measurement (Tedrumpun & Nakapan, 2004), city models (Berridge et al, 2002), registering use patterns (Nomura & Kishimoto, 2005), communicating user preferences (Shen & Teng, 2005), participation in design and planning activities (Kaga et al, 2006), collaborative design (Bunyavipakul & Charoenslip, 2003) and teaching (Cheng & Lane-Cumming, 2003).…”

http://caad. bk.tudelft.nl; http://www.re-h.nl Applications of mobile information technologies in architecture and building require a high degree of contextual awareness not only for localization but also for distinguishing between different types of information (relevant, redundant, stable etc.). This awareness refers to the physical context of a device, as well as to the social dynamics of the situation (including interaction with shared information). Architectural knowledge and in particular design representations support the development of contextual awareness but there are significant differences between these representations and the use of information they convey in mobile applications.

Abstract.A mobile architectural guide assists architectural tourists in selecting, navigating to and recognizing architectural sights. The guide supports such tasks by means of domain knowledge, design documentation and contextual information organized into navigation modules, architectural information systems and learning modules. Visiting ArchitectureModern information and communication technologies support access to all kinds of information from virtually any place in several continents. Access to online information is no longer restricted to conventional computing devices: mobile telephones and other lightweight wireless devices are becoming increasingly popular for information processing on the road or in the field. Despite the obvious limitations of screen size, processing and storage capacity, such devices are generally capable of supporting interaction with the majority of documents used in professional settings. The current focus in mobile information processing seems firmly fixed on 'social' applications but there is a discernible increase in more conventional professional applications (Kaga et al. 2006;Matsumoto et al. 2001;Tedrumpun and Nakapan 2004;Wang and Shih 2002) -even if it may have come rather late, as we can judge from the recent stagnation in the development of palmtop hardware and software. Somewhere in between social and professional applications we encounter informative and educational applications which make use of professional information for non-professional purposes and use technologies marketed for personal entertainment and communication.Digital architectural guides are an example of such applications. Even though copyright issues form obstacles of increasing magnitude and complexity, there has been substantial even though unsystematic digitization of information on architecturally important buildings. Online resources concentrate mostly on visual documentation (scanned drawings, photographs, three-dimensional models), while only a few have been

It can be said that improving tourism facilities will be indispensable for the economy of our country in the future. To improve tourism facilities, tourism information evaluated by tourists should be collected and transformed into useful knowledge, and then this knowledge should be used for the planning and the improvement of tour routes and the infrastructure of sightseeing areas. Therefore, this research describes a tourism management supporting system. Management system was composed of collection system and sharing system. The collection system was used to identify tourists' needs accurately, effectively and widely by using a CPCG (Cell-Phone with Camera and GPS) and by developing an Information Management Server. Sharing system was to transform the collected information to 4 kind of useful knowledge; confirmation, discovery, disappointment and hate, and to display them. To verify the proposed methods, the author carried out a social experiment. The experiment showed that the proposed system was effective.
