... concept of the landscape design is to extend the principles of the building into the site layout, enhancing the setting of the building. The intention is to have a "natural" landscape rather than an imposed "corporate" landscape; thus, there will be a continuation of the centuries-old tradition of a managed meadow, augmented by indigenous species tree planting and complemented by artwork, see Figure 1. Considerable attention has been given to conserving the habitats of the indigenous rare newt population. ...

When we plan a building, we need to predict the states of human and spatial usage of it. In such cases, discrete definition of space has advantage in modeling and calculation, but it has limitation in spatial reproduction of human behaviors. Therefore we need to define some physical values like distance or velocity continuously for reflecting detai...

... Taylor, Matzdorf, Smith and Agahi (2020) stated that university infrastructure had become a source of concern in the United Kingdom (UK) because construction and maintenance of university buildings take the second-largest cut of the education budget after staffing. For example, according to Taylor et al. (2020), the National Audit Office reported that between 1993 and 1996, the UK spent close to £1.6 billion on 239 building projects. ...
... Good infrastructure can support student performance (Fagbohunka, 2017). Furthermore, infrastructure will have a very important role, because students will choose based on the existing infrastructure (Taylor et al. 2002). The reputation of the university is seen from the facilities with the best standards which will have an impact on the student's decision to choose the university (Price et al. 2003) because facilities owned by educational institutions will build a reputation among students (Martín-Miguel et al. 2020). ...
This study aims to test whether the expertise of human resources and the availability of infrastructure, can improve the reputation of universities. The variables were developed from the theory of Resources Based View (RBV). Furthermore, the development of these variables is described with Infrastructure, human resource skills, and reputation in increasing the competitiveness of universities. The data collection method used was questionnaires and interviews. The questionnaire was prepared using the three variables in the study, namely human resources skills, infrastructure, and university reputation. The respondents of this study were 230 people. The respondent's profession as a whole is a lecturer. The questionnaire in this study used a measurement scale called the Likert scale. Subsequently, the data from the questionnaire was processed using Partial Least Square (PLS). Based on data collection, the results found human resources skills related to the reputation of the university. Infrastructure affects the strength of reputation and human resources skills. The results of this study show human resources skills and infrastructure greatly affect the reputation of universities. This is due to the ability of human resources supported by infrastructure will increase the competitiveness of the university.
