Hi, My research and teaching interests involve using the computer and computing as medium for architectural design. I hold a Ph.D. from Carnegie-Mellon University, Pittsburgh, in CAD applied to Building Performance Diagnostic and Evaluation. I am professor at l'École d'architecture, Faculté d'aménagement, d'architecture et des arts visuels, Université Laval, Québec. Since 1991, I am teaching CAAD theoretical courses tightly related to my paperless studios that currently integrate design through synchronized remote collaboration while promoting the use of virtual architecture (AV) as the medium for design collaboration. I am cofounder and codirector du Laboratoire de recherche sur l'identité par modélisation architecturale (LIMA) where I am pursuing funded researches tightly linked to my teaching, and supervision of Master and PhD's theses as well. I am also researcher at the Laboratoire d'informatique appliquée à l'architecture (Li2a), École Nationale Supérieure d'architecture de Toulouse.

P.S. I'm just trill to be part of this WUE project... So, a warm wellcome to all WUE students and (really) do hesitate to chat me... Pecot
