The forest pathways are a means of transitioning from a forest and park environment to a built environment. Connecting the two environments operationalizes the main concept, which is to bring life and nature into the built environment and thereby fostering an interaction within a historical building. The forest pathways, as conceptualized inside the building, will be drawn as curved lines that guide the pedestrian through a succession of spaces that create the impression of houses built along a forest path. The pathway will move around columns as a pedestrian moves around trees in a forest.

Electricity still remains the most important energy source in the present world driven by information and communications. There are quite a number of energy sources but under two broad categories - renewable and non-renewable energy source. The non-renewable energy sources include coal, gas, crude oil etc. The renewable energy sources include solar energy, wind energy etc. Non-renewable energy sources are burnt and cannot be replenished but renewable sources are not diminished when they are used. One down side of non-renewable energy sources which have been widely used in the past centuries up till now is the air pollution they ...

Abstract

The smart grid system makes use of digital information technology to transmit and distribute power. Hence, the operations of this system rely on the complex computer networks coupled with communication technologies that are available in the global information technology network domain. This is the leading cause of the vulnerabilities of the smart grid system. This paper will focus on the vulnerabilities of the system that are evident in SCADA, substation security, communication networks and wireless networks security. While proponents of the system tout its ability to increase efficiency, it cannot be denied that the smart grid system is ...
