ARCH 362: PARAMETRIC MODELING: Undergraduate Elective Course at İstanbul Bilgi University Faculty of Architecture student exercise: Deniz Yazıcı (YTU/CADU 2008) COURSE BRIEF (2011) Digital paradigm transferred parametric modeling as an alternative conception in architecture, emphasizing a focal shift from the singularity of design artifacts to the explicit and generative process of designing. While architects start to experience the construction of algorithms, computers played an increasingly important role in the adaptation of this new conception utilizing design geometry. Architectural education also started…

Design scripting is initially based on secondary syntactic mechanisms that control sequential executions of code. We call this model of computation control flow programming. On the other hand, dataflow represents a widespread alternative to control flow by utilizing concurrent streams of data. Dataflow programming languages are also considered as pedagogical tools in fields where the coders are not expert computer programmers. In the last decade, new parametric modeling tools introduced this conception to design scripting, shifting its practical and educational…
