This book constitutes the strictly refereed post-workshop proceedings of the Second International Workshop on Automated Deduction in Geometry, ADG'98, held in Beijing, China in August 1998. The 14 revised papers presented were selected from the papers accepted for the workshop after careful reviewing. The papers address all current issues in the area, in particular automated geometry theorem proving, automated geometry problem solving, plane Euclidean reasoning, Clifford algebraic methods for geometric reasoning, decomposing algebraic varieties, applciations in computer vision, mechanical CAGD, etc.

This book attempts to provide insights into the achievement of a sustainable urban form, through spatial planning and implementation; here, we focus on planning experiences at the levels of local cities and some metropolitan areas in Asian countries. This book investigates the impact of planning policy on spatial planning implementation, from multidisciplinary viewpoints encompassing land-use patterns, housing development, transportation, green design, and agricultural and ecological systems in the urbanization process. We seek to learn from researchers in an integrated multidisciplinary platform that reflects a variety of perspectives, such as economic development, social equality, and ecological protection, with a view to achieving a sustainable urban form.​
