Heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning systems exchange information about demand, occupancy patterns, equipment performance, indoor condition...

When a transit agency removes the last feeder bus serving a public-housing complex, the immediate justification is usually numerical: low boardings, high operating cost, weak recovery of fares. Yet those numbers are rarely neutral descriptions of demand. They are often outputs from models trained on service conditions ...

Elevator control has become a central instrument of vertical evacuation policy in public housing, particularly where older residents depend on lifts for ordinary mobility and may be unable to use stairs during a fire, flood, power interruption, or other emergency. Reinforcement-learning systems are now being evaluated ...

Roman building law offers an early example of a recurring urban problem: public authorities seek the gains of compact settlement while limiting the risks created by excessive concentration. Height restrictions associated with imperial Rome were not merely aesthetic controls. They addressed fire, structural failure, acc...

The decisive question for future megastructures will not be how many functions can be stacked within a single complex, but how intelligently those functions can be reassigned as collective needs change. In ultra-high-density districts, housing, education, healthcare, production, retail, culture, mobility, and public ad...

Reinforcement-learning systems used to manage pedestrian circulation in major transit hubs are optimizing for a definition of mobility that excludes many of the people the transportation system is required to serve. Trained on aggregate movement rates, queue dissipation, transfer completion, and platform-access times, ...

Romance narratives written for algorithmically coordinated cities begin with a problem of attention. A chance meeting is no longer simply an accident between two strangers; it is shaped by route recommendations, venue allocations, consent settings, event calendars, and the commercial rhythms of districts designed to br...

Micro-thermal trapping in high-density public housing is a systems failure in which compact urban form, building operation, and household vulnerability interact faster than conventional ventilation controls can respond. During calm, hot conditions, heat can accumulate in courtyards, recessed façades, upper-level corrid...

Micro-fabrication facilities optimized by machine learning are likely to share sites with high-density housing across major metropolitan regions within the next decade. Their co-location could shorten supply chains, reduce industrial land consumption, and connect advanced manufacturing to concentrated labor markets. It...
