Description<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
\n

Space syntax is an expression coined in the 1970s by Billy Hillier and his colleagues at Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London. It refers to a set of techniques and theories that investigates topological properties of spatial systems and their effects in terms of urban practices. The underlying idea is that the relationship between the physical and social dimensions of city lies in the configuration of spatial structures, hence in the interdependencies among the components of the urban layout.<\/p>\n

In the context of climate change, space syntax, encompasses a method for analysing how spatial properties limit or facilitate urban transformations and transitions in social practices based on criteria of sustainability, inclusion and equality.<\/p>\n

The discourse on the sustainable city intersects both present and future needs and both descriptive and normative dimensions. Consequently, a descriptive approach, structured by space syntax theories and methods is central to understand the relationship between space and society with the perspective of predicting future needs arising from the demand for sustainability, inclusion and equality.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Syntax City_2021 workshop welcomes contributions aimed at proposing novel methods and visions, theoretical approaches and case studies connecting space syntax with the sustainable city debate.<\/p>\n

Focus of contributions may include (but is not limited):<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Spatial and social justice;<\/p>\n

Space, sustainable mobility means and energy use;<\/p>\n

Data-informed design and planning;<\/p>\n

Transport planning and land use studies;<\/p>\n

Online and informal economies;<\/p>\n

Urban morphogenesis;<\/p>\n

Theoretical and methodological development;<\/p>\n

Urban policy making.<\/p>\n

Space, crime and urban safety;<\/p>\n

Space and urban centralities.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Given the focus of the Conference on Computational Science issues, the Syntax City workshop welcomes contributions on urban studies, spatial planning, and computational aspects, proposals and applications from a wide variety of scholars on the issues proposed. Engineers, Urban and Regional Planners, Architects,\u00a0Geographers and Environmental Engineers, among others are welcome to contribute.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Keywords<\/strong>: Spatial Plannning, spatial planning, ICT, urban morphology, Transport planning and land use studies, smart cities, urban and regional planning, Open Data, Big Data.<\/p>\n

Each paper will be independently reviewed by 3 programme committee members. Their individual scores will be evaluated by a small sub-committee and result in one of the following final decisions: accepted, or accepted on the condition that suggestions for improvement will be incorporated, or rejected. Notification of this decision will take place on April 2021.
\nIndividuals and groups should submit complete papers (10 to 16 pages).
\nAccepted contributions will be published in the Springer-Verlag Lecture Notes in Computer Science (LNCS) volumes<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
