"Urban planning refers to the process of development of the land and infrastructure of a place. It also includes development of transportation, distribution networks, communications, public welfare, and urban design, etc. It integrates the elements of civil engineering and urban architecture to help in the growth and development of the cities. This book includes some of the vital pieces of work being conducted across the world, on various topics related to urban planning. The aim of the book is to present researches that have transformed this discipline and aided its advancement. It is a vital tool for all researching and studying this field. -- from publisher's website."

"Communicates sound, up-to-date ecological principles to the urban design community to help improve the ecological function of designed and built landscapes Identifies novel environmental research directions needed to support basic urban ecology as well as sustainable and resilient urban design Articulates new criteria for assessing good ecological urban design while engaging the design imagination Contributions by leading voices in the design and ecological communities The contributors to this volume propose strategies of urgent and vital importance that aim to make today's urban environments more resilient. Resilience, the ability of complex systems to adapt to changing conditions, is a key frontier in ecological research and is especially relevant in creative urban design, as urban areas exemplify complex systems. With something approaching half of the world's population now residing in coastal urban zones, many of which are vulnerable both to floods originating inland and rising sea levels, making urban areas more robust in the face of environmental threats must be a policy ambition of the highest priority. The complexity of urban areas results from their spatial heterogeneity, their intertwined material and energy fluxes, and the integration of social and natural processes. All of these features can be altered by intentional planning and design. The complex, integrated suite of urban structures and processes together affect the adaptive resilience of urban systems, but also presupposes that planners can intervene in positive ways. As examples accumulate of linkage between sustainability and building/​landscape design, such as the Shanghai Chemical Industrial Park and Toronto's Lower Don River area, this book unites the ideas, data, and insights of ecologists and related scientists with those of urban designers. It aims to integrate a formerly atomized dialog to help both disciplines promote urban resilience."

"ABSTRACTThe number of complaints, the slow performance, and the lack of productivity demands the need for a reformed public sector. Reform can be done with social innovation by involving and making citizens as participants and end users. Not only that, fundamentally, changing the role of various stakeholders in the provision of services. Where citizens act to decide themselves and play an active role in making decisions. Ruslani Innovation is one of the forms of social innovations based on the problem of limited access to the fulfillment of healthy habitable home ownership for the poor. How the implementation of Ruslani innovation based on the community empowerment done in Samarinda Seberang Sub District is analyzed in this research. By using a descriptive qualitative method, data collection is conducted through in depth interviews of key informants selected purposively and by analyzing secondary data documents. The results show that the implementation of Ruslani program has been aligned based on the principle of Law Number 23 of 2014 on Regional Government, according to principles; increased efficiency; improvement of effectiveness; improvement of service quality; no conflict of interest; oriented to the public interest; done openly; fulfill propriety values; can be accounted for the results that are not for self-interest. On the other hand, the Ruslani program has also followed the criteria relative advantage, compatibility, complexity, trialability, observability, and criteria of service innovation based on the Regulation of Menpan RB Number 19 of 2016, which in its implementation has introduced a new, productive, impactful and beneficial approach, and the most important thing is this program has running sustainably. Factors supporting and inhibiting innovation based on environmental categories, organizations, and individuals generally do not hinder the implementation of the program."
