Here is one example: 140kit (&#8220;a platform that makes collecting and analyzing Twitter easy&#8221;). Is this enough or do we non computer types [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Will Doig in Salon writes a good piece on smart cities. His question is, once we give over our cities to increasing computerization and sensor integration, will we be unintentionally turning over our cities to big companies like IBM and Google? This isn&#8217;t an argument about the use of technology in cities&#8211;that&#8217;s an acceptable efficiency [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[When reading the other posts, it seemed that Aitken and Michel’s (1995) article did not receive many positive remarks, mainly for its lack of clarity and vagueness. Perhaps I spent too much time reading marginal continental philosophy this semester that made me more sympathetic to this piece. Although the article is more theory based, it [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Clouclelis (2005) outlines the rethinking of integrated land-use models by orienting the article around three main roles that are interconnected: scenario writing, visioning, and storytelling. The details of the article more than suffice the upsides and downsides of urban planning history with regard to the computational and spatial planning world. The one role that intrigued [...]]]></description>

In order to clarify this problem we come to a series of context and communication problems due to the large argument in this field. Critical theory has been applied in the paper published [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In the paper published by Couclelis in 2005, the author presents a problem that attracts lots of research interests in GIS, the rethink about the relationship between the landscape modeling and the planning. Planning is a kind of strategy making processing, whereas modeling is mathematical and scientific process. GIS modeling process takes the previous data [...]]]></description>

A frequent occurrence in urban planning is when community groups are given a few options or strategies to select from, the pros and cons of which have already been analyzed. [...]]]></description>
