6TH internacional symposium formal methods in architecture (FMA)

Pre-registration

Inscription period closed.

Event description

The Formal Methods in Architecture (FMA) series began in 2011 and it is a biennial international symposium. The 6FMA will be held at ETSAC-Escola Técnica Superior de Arquitectura da Coruña, Universidade da Coruña (UDC), in Galicia (Spain). The 6FMA will focus on scientific fields whose areas of application use methodologies that stem from the Mathematical and Computer Sciences, especially those that have witnessed recently developments.

 

The main purpose of this symposium is a contribution to the debate in the fields of Architecture and Urbanism on the application of new formal methods to emerging societal and technical problems. Formal methods will be focused on methodological advances based on new developments coming from collaborative work with Mathematics and Computer Sciences which enables several different grades of abstraction and formalization. From the millennial geometry to current shape grammars, several formal approaches to Architecture and Urbanism are welcome to be presented. The aim of the symposium is to discuss, disseminate and promote the use of formal methods in the creation of new explicit languages for problem-solving in Architecture and Urbanism. We will discuss current problems in the field and the potentials and drawbacks of the use of formal methods to address them. These problems range from production, sustainability, representation, communication, heritage among others, never ceasing to see Architecture and Urbanism as technological activities and well as artistic ones.
