What is it about?

In this article, exploring architecture as a product, we present a Computer Architectural Integrated Implementation (CAII) that is based on CIM theories. The outcome of the project presents the practical value of a CAII process. Exploring architecture as a product, we set up the framework of Computer Architectural Integrated Implementation (CAII) that is based on CIM theories. First, the definition and concepts of CAII are presented; then a flexible design system that is based on CIM is described. Next, CAII is applied to a practical project. We built up a virtual platform for handling various information and data streams.

Why is it important?

Cantered around an integrated system CAII attempts to reduce error, to respond more efficiently, and to be inclusive to various design processes and digital fabrication techniques. We expect this interdisciplinary approach to yield substantial results in the whole process from initial design to fabrication and beyond to include maintenance and life cycles.

Perspectives

CAIIis the integration of design and fabrication process through the application of integrated systems and information communications. It offers the most to In-formation Integration, especially for an architectural in-it a design stage. Information can be used to manage operations staff, make capital spending decisions, direct maintenance efforts, improve scheduling, evaluate vendor performance and support continuous improvement. Base on this, design system flexibility, order completions can be improved.
