University of Technology-Iraq Engineering and Technology Journal 1681-6900 28 19 2010 09 28 Theempact of information on the architect design المعلوماتیة وأثرھا في التصمیم المعماري 999 1016 40764 EN Journal Article 2010 09 01 The accelerated evolution of informatics is considered the core aspect of information age. , which had focused on the production of materials, the age of informatics revolution came, which concentrated on production of ideas rather than materials, and those countries that have more information are the most control over the events in the world. The last twenty years witnessed phenomenal development in the information and communication sector which we never had before and this development has changed the features of the new world, therefore functions replaced others and new techniques came up which have changed the activities of society and affected concepts and postulates, As other activities of life, architecture was largely influenced by the informatics evolution causing a change in the concept of architecture and architectural design in terms of thinking,analysis and performance and production methods. The research also explains the concept of informatics, technology and globalization , brings up a definition for the architectural design, shows the importance of informatics on thedesigning process and then impact of informatics in the architectural formation, reaching to a new formulation for the designing process in the information age and extract indexes for informatics like the artificial intelligence, communication development, information building and globalization. And then to examine these indexes' impact on the designing process via creating a questionnaire, reaching to a conclude that the elements and informatics technologies raise the designing process's proficiency, Finally, the research recommends it is necessary that students, academicians, vocational people and those who work in the architectural engineering domain to recognize the elements and informatics technologies in the designing process in order to go along with the age development
