ABSTRACT Today our economic competition faced great challenges because of international economic reform; meanwhile .Knowledge-based Economy. has already become a major trend in this age. Thus why our economies scrambling to catch on to the strategy of value added growth by combining high tech service and cultural creative contents. The way to get the master key to this is to get the right creative people to work on innovative projects and produce highly value added products. According to Florida.s theory¡]2003¡^¡uThe demographics show it is critically linked with the location where can attract and keep the talents. Provide for the needs of new Creativity that requires 3T: Talents in living in Tolerant and Technically supportive Clusters¡v. Set up a Cultural and Creative Center is one of the major goal of . Challenge 2008¡GThe National Development Plan in Taiwan. ; and currently the most important issue is the adaptive reuse of five deserted industrial wineries in five cities . This thesis emphasized mainly on the operation strategies of one case study¡GGranville Island District in Vancouver, Canada. The reason is: Granville Island District is one of the most successful projects in North America. The planning and designing objectives were to reuse the industrial and warehouse buildings by changing them into multi-use structures. The plan also focused on maintaining the industrial feel of the island while introducing a range of cultural, educational, commercial and some industrial uses. The research discovered from Granville Island District.s lessons that Granville Island has succeeded, not only by focusing on a coherent master plan or a theme park like design integrity, but through maintaining its flexibility as it has grown institutions, business and places from within ¡Ðserving a broader and broader set of users. The Granville Island District.s success story can be used as a best example of Hua Shan Cultural and Creative Industry Center.s future development plan.

From the standpoint of basic human rights, government and society should share the responsibility of providing various welfare services to the disabled and ensure their opportunities for education, jobs and even basic survival. However, in the time of financial hardship for the government, to rebuild or purchase new buildings to facilitate the welfare institutions for the disabled will surely have impacts on other existing welfare spending. On the other hand, there are many public properties and buildings not utilized, wasting the government resources. How the government agencies can effectively push the reuse of the public deserted spaces for the welfare institutions, the current issues and the strategies for the future are the topics which are worth exploring and may well be the references for the government agencies. This study is based on the research methods such as data collection, case study and in-depth interviews and finds that the welfare institutions to be housed in the public deserted spaces should be community-based. To sustain itself financially and to avoid the management liability and pressure, the scale should not be too small. The role of the welfare institutions for the disabled is to assist the government, support the families, subside, create, profit and provide social education. The government should be responsible for the policies or the affairs beneficial to the people with much less resources, and create incentives for the private sectors to participate in the welfare business. Reuse the public deserted spaces can efficiently utilize and manage the public properties. However, the issues encountered during the remodeling process such as the structures of the site, wheelchair accessibility, building permits for the building expansion and permits for changes of building purposes are beyond these welfare institutions. To resolve these issues requires the coordination of the involving government agencies and the welfare institutions to be housed at the public deserted spaces. If the institutions to be housed at the public deserted spaces are service-oriented, they should be able to use the spaces without paying rents. If the institutions are for profits, the government agency managing the properties should collect rents to enforce a fair, efficient utilization and long-termed planning. Also, the institutions should think about the sufficiency of their staff trainings and marketing strategies for the whole year to maintain smooth and stable business running. This study proposed the following four proposals: 1.Establish a complete and open information network and set up a reasonable rental procedure so that the private sectors can locate the deserted spaces and reuse the spaces for the welfare of the disabled by renting. 2.Help the private sectors to push for the social services for the disabled. 3.While not compromising the public welfare and safety, modify the codes and laws involved to streamline the space reuse process. 4.Regarding the business model of the welfare institutions to be housed at the public deserted spaces, assess and evaluate not only the rental periods and the sizes but also the budget expenses and business strategies, hoping the institutions can be run stably and smoothly and maximize the benefits of space reuse.

The aim of the thesis is to summarize historical development of glassmaking in Bohemia and Moravia since the end of the eighteenth century until the beginning of the First World War and it contains detailed interpretation of microrelief of the deserted post medieval glassworks in Milovy (District of Žďár nad Sázavou). The thesis is focused on changes of technology of production and refining of glass, effects of glassmaking on land ecology and social development in pursued period. Geodetic-topographical plan of the deserted site, which served as main source material for functional interpretation of microrelief of the deserted glassworks in Milovy, is the inseparable part of the thesis.

This essay discusses the width of the late medieval desertion of farms in Sweden from an archaeological perspective. The object of the essay is to investigate if archaeological investigations and research during the last 10-15 years have changed the view of the late medieval desertion in relation to the Scandinavian research project on deserted farms and villages. The essay also deals with questions on causes to the desertion and when desertion occurred. An ambition of the essay is also to give a general picture of archaeological investigations during the last 10-15 years considering the late medieval desertion. The analyses-material consists mainly of reports from archaeological investigations. Most of the investigations analysed in this essay are investigations of single farms. Because of this it is natural these investigations do not say much about the width of the desertion. As long as an archaeological investigation is not a part of a large project, where the purpose is to show the width of the desertion, one cannot expect that one single investigation will give much information or knowledge about the width. However, if the ambition is to obtain a complete picture of a medieval deserted farm or village, this essay confirms that an archaeological investigation is necessary, willingly in an interdisciplinary cooperation.

Master's thesis deals with the micro-region Klánovice's forest and its surroundings on the eastern edge of the City Prague. This area has not been given comprehensive attention yet. The findings are based on a critical review of the humble written and archaeological sources relating to the concerned area. In addition, was made, analysis of archaeological excavation, which was carried out on the deserted village Hol and also geophysical survey from the same site. Based on the lessons learned to better classify and discuss the role of this area in the hinterland of high medieval Prague. Keywords: deserted village, Klánovice forest, Hol, geophysical survey, ceramics, agricultural margins land, high middle ages

In Sweden there are large differences between living in the city and the countryside. To make the countryside more attractive as a place of living, improvement is necessary in some regions. One such region is Skruv, a village that consists of a lot of deserted houses.  The purpose of the study is to improve the living conditions in this region. As a result, a design proposal has been created. In the creation of this study, both information gathered from field studies and interviews with subject relevant professionals has acted as a basis. This all surmised into a proposal with the old stationhouse as a central role. The proposal has a futuristic angle, as it expects there to be a functioning train stop, something which also increase the attractiveness of the region. In the proposal the chosen deserted houses consist of functions that are deemed desired by the inhabitants in Skruv.  Overall functions in a society are the same regardless of the geographical location. It’s important to look at a place specific conditions and resources to enable a favorable development.

This study examines landscape change in the Province of Jämtland during c. 1000–1750 AD. Settlement and arable cultivation are two of the most important sources in this study. They are therefore treated in depth, particularly farmsteads that were deserted during the late medieval agrarian crisis, so-called ödesbölen, and their fossil field-traces. The dissertation contains four major investigations. In the first investigation 610 possible ödesbölen were identified. The desertion was estimated at 50 per cent. The second investigation had its focus on the geographic location, and the conclusion was that the ödesbölen may have been deserted when the climate turned colder in the 14th century. The third investigation concerned medieval agriculture. Using historical maps and detailed mapping of fossil field traces it was established that the annually cultivated acreage decreased from the High Middle Ages until early modern times. This probably means that the agrarian crisis caused a change in the agrarian regime, from predominant arable farming to predominant stock-raising. The fourth investigation was whether the ownership or the use of the ödesbölen created obstacles to recolonization when the crisis subsided. This turned out not to be so in the case of ownership, but may have been so with regard to communal forest grazing. According to historical maps the ödesbölen in Jämtland were finally recolonized about 200 years later than for example in southern Sweden. The reasons probably were wars and a worse climate. The dissertation is capped off with both a model and a description of landscape change in Jämtland. Characteristic for the development of the landscape has been fluctuations in settlement. The ödesbölen are part of a pattern in which they are colonized, deserted, recolonized and again deserted in a cyclical course of events. The openness of the landscape is not part of this course of events.

Plusieurs grandes villes d'Iran sont riches de plusieurs millénaires de constructions desites historiques et de bâtiments anciens. Certaines de ces constructions, sont d'une partformées de matières vulnérables comme la brique cuite ou crue et le plâtre et d'autre partimpactées par la méthode de la distribution des usages urbains. Il en résulte d'importantschangements et des destructions. Le bazar comptait autrefois l’axe le plus important desespaces urbaines dans les villes iraniennes.D’après les documents existants dans les archives, on peut relever que l’anciennetéhistorique des bazars remonte au minimum à des milliers d’années avant J.-C.Jusqu’au début de 20e siècle, le bazar de chaque ville nourrissait un rapport organique etcohérent avec les autres espaces urbains, mais depuis le début de ce siècle et à la suite dudéveloppement des villes, de la construction des rues donnant accès aux voitures et de ladésignation des modèles d’habitation et d’urbanisme, le rapport entre le bazar et les autresétendues urbaines s'est amenuisé.De nos jours, le Bazar d’Hamadan est encore actif et utilisable mais il est actuellementvulnérable à cause de dégâts structuraux et de certains facteurs socio-économiques. C'est laraison pour laquelle, certaines parties du Bazar d’Hamadan seront graduellementabandonnées.L'objectif de ce travail de recherche est de connaître le bazar d’Hamadan du point devue des fonctions structurales ainsi que ses caractéristiques économiques et sociales, et deprésenter des solutions pour sa restauration, en visant les résultats suivants :- La prévision des possibilités spatiales afin de continuer de nouvelles activités,- la présentation de règlements et de prescriptions pour l’amélioration de laconstruction et l’épuration des activités incohérentes / Many big cities in Iran, have thousands years background and yet some parts of ancientsites and monuments that several centuries old are existing. Many of this textures andmonuments because of using vulnerable materials like brick and mud brick and also land usechanges in urban area are being changed and destroyed. Bazaar has been the most importantconnection way and Iranian urban spaces. According to the existing document, you can guessthat historical background of Bazars is related to thousand years B.C. until the first period ofcurrent century, Bazaars in each city had an organic and strong relation with other urbanspaces. But from the beginning of current age, after urban development and constructing ofroads and streets and establishing new methods of residency and urbanism, their relation withanother urban spaces has disjoined. Nowadays Hamadan bazaar is active, but due to the somesocioeconomic problems, some part of it is going to be deserted. The objective of study ofHamadan bazaar is determining the body and operation and some socioeconomiccharacteristics and finding solution for improvement as follow result. A) Predicting offacilities for further new activities. B) presenting standard and regulation for improvement ofconstruction and C) omitting misfit operation and activities.

Im Frühjahr 1999 wurden bei der Verlegung der Erdgastrasse JAGAL zwischen Großzöberitz und Zörbig (Lkr. Bitterfeld; deshalb zuständig: LfA Halle/Saale) Reste einer mittelalterlichen ländlichen Siedlung, einer Wüstung entdeckt. Das Grabungsteam unter der Leitung von Frau Dr. K. Bemmann legte auf vier Teilflächen 88 Befunde frei. Besonders interessant waren ein Gebäude mit Sodenwänden und ein Haus mit Steinfundamenten. Durch die Auswertung der Funde und Befunde wurden Siedlungsphasen chronologisch eingegrenzt, Strukturen der Siedlung näher untersucht und wirtschaftliche sowie soziale Fragen diskutiert. Ferner ging es darum, den Namen der „Fundstelle 1“ (unbekannt oder bekannt?) und die Ursachen des Wüstungsprozesses zu ermitteln. / Remains of a medieval rural village have been found between Großzöberitz and Zörbig (County Bitterfeld) in the spring 1999 during the building of the gas pipeline JAGAL. The excavation team run by Dr. K. Bemmann had excavated 88 features on four areas. Two buildings, one with grass packing walls and one with stone basements, were especially interesting. Through the analysis of finds and features were settlement phases chronologically fixed, structures of the settlement looked at in more detail, and social questions discussed. Furthermore, the name of ‘site 1’ (known or unknown?) and the reasons for deserting were a matter of concern.
