  2. Sunset (computing) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunset_(computing)

    After sunsetting is announced, usually very few changes are made to the hardware or software in question, as such work would be counterproductive, when its termination is soon to follow. In some cases, however, individual features of an application, server, or service may be phased out at different times, leading up to the eventual full shutdown.

  3. Daylighting (architecture) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daylighting_(architecture)

    Tubular daylighting devices harvest sunlight and transmit it through a highly reflective tube into an interior space at the ceiling level Diagram of a light tube. Another type of device used is the light tube, also called a tubular daylighting device (TDD), which is placed into a roof and admits light to a focused area of the interior.

  4. Arcadia (engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arcadia_(engineering)

    Architecture verification rules are established and the model is challenged against them, so as to check that architecture definition meets expectations, as early as possible in the process; Co-engineering between the different levels of engineering is supported by the joint development of models.

  5. Schematic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schematic

    A schematic, or schematic diagram, is a designed representation of the elements of a system using abstract, graphic symbols rather than realistic pictures. A schematic usually omits all details that are not relevant to the key information the schematic is intended to convey, and may include oversimplified elements in order to make this essential meaning easier to grasp, as well as additional ...

  6. C4 model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C4_model

    Code diagrams (level 4): provide additional details about the design of the architectural elements that can be mapped to code. The C4 model relies at this level on existing notations such as Unified Modelling Language (UML) , Entity Relation Diagrams (ERD) or diagrams generated by Integrated Development Environments (IDE) .

  7. Morphology (architecture and engineering) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morphology_(architecture...

    Morphology in architecture is the study of the evolution of form within the built environment. Often used in reference to a particular vernacular language of building, this concept describes changes in the formal syntax of buildings and cities as their relationship to people evolves and changes.

  8. Architectural lighting design - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architectural_lighting_design

    The history of electric light is well documented, [11] and with the developments in lighting technology the profession of lighting developed alongside it. The development of high-efficiency, low-cost fluorescent lamps led to a reliance on electric light and a uniform blanket approach to lighting, but the energy crisis of the 1970s required more design consideration and reinvigorated the use of ...

  9. Heliodon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heliodon

    Heliodons are used primarily by architects and students of architecture. By placing a model building on the heliodon’s flat surface and making adjustments to the light/surface angle, the investigator can see how the building would look in the three-dimensional solar beam at various dates and times of day.
