Designing embodied playfulness has been explored as a method for problem-solving. However, when thinking about deploying such an approach in public space activities, we often face many limitations regarding safety and ambiance, especially for bodily movements and behavior. To explore and address the challenges of deploying playfulness with restrained bodily movements in public spaces, we present a case study of an escalator augmented with auditory and visual feedback. An escalator in a public shopping mall has many limitations that require careful consideration in the design to maintain safety and avoid mistakes. We describe the challenges of our design strategy in order to complete the installation of a public escalator over five days. The results show that our approach significantly encouraged people to use the escalator, and also improved their manner of using it. Our work presents a successful method of treating the balance of social limitations and enjoyment that can affect human behavior in positive ways.

New Facility

In view of the problem of competitive facility location in urban planning, the response of competitors to the new facility is considered. We use Huff’s probability model to describe the market share of all facilities which depends on its service quality and its distance from customers. To maximize the market share of facilities, a two-stage method (quality decision stage and location decision stage) is adopted, which takes into account the responses of competitors. In the stage of quality decision, the competitive decision-making process is simulated as a game process and solved by Nash equilibrium. The solution of the quality decision process can be expressed as a function of the new facility’s location which can be obtained by polynomial approximation. In the location decision stage, we apply the interval analysis based on branch and bound algorithm to determine the optimal location of new facility. Then, we use the randomly generated numerical experiment to verify the effectiveness of the model and algorithm. Finally, we apply this model and algorithm to the location of a new shopping mall in Putuo district, Shanghai.

The City

<p>This paper aims at investigating entrepreneurial ecosystems through analysis of interactions among their main agents, in different spatialities of a medium-size city: the city center (downtown), a suburban street, and its main shopping mall. As a theoretical framework the Jacobs approach (2011), the theory of practical action (Bourdieu, 2010), and the theory of interspecific ecological interactions (Lopes & Russo, 2010) were used. In methodological terms, a case study approach was carried out. The findings indicate different types of ecosystem interactions, considering the influence of the context, technology, and innovation as well as the historical trajectories and <i>Habitus</i> that characterize them. </p>
