“…In some studies, the concept of interface is used to highlight the role that urban design can play in mediating the bringing together of urban activities that have been isolated from one another [14]. In this way, UI is defined as the transition area between urban life and wild-land environment in a macro-scale [10] [11] [15]- [19]. Moore also refers to this group while explaining UI as a matrix of patches [20].…”

This paper discusses the validity of the urban interface dichotomy in the urban planning and scientific literature by means of a new approach and proposes a new model. Although the concept of "Urban Interface" (UI) is discussed widely in the context of urban-rural and/or natural-artificial environment, UI has been used in the computer and communication disciplines, as well as in economy, geography, regional planning, city planning and architecture. UI has also been used in relation to electronic traffic control systems in urban transportation. UI between buildings and city is a relatively new issue in the literature. UI is defined with variant paradigms since the phenomenon is uncertain. This article reports on the use of fuzzy logic to create a kind of expert system for evaluating architectural elements in the context of UI. Fuzzy is the mathematical models of verbal expression on the area of specialization. This study is useful because this study shows a way to transform non-intuitive and precise concepts to the measurable and accurate results into a model. In order to create a model, the definition of UI in literature is evaluated and according to this evaluation a definition in terms of architecture is determined. The model of this new definition is created with using fuzzy logic using the Fuzzy Tec software. The predictions and experiences of a designer are represented in the model, which has been designed to behave like an expert person. Therefore, it has been shown that the definition of "expert system" can be added to architectural software. Lastly, a model that can give a fuzzy logic system for determining the quality of Urban Interface with sixteen parameters has been presented to the scientific field.

“…It is based on a multistage random sampling design that relies on data from the 2002 Chilean Population Census and is stratified by region and rural/urban residence. In a study that unfortunately conflates rural and agriculture, Madaleno and Gurovich (2004) highlight the significant agricultural activity occurring in peri-urban Santiago -thus blurring the rural-urban distinction, in their view. The CASEN is representative of the entire population in urban as well as rural areas (Pizzolitto, 2005;MIDEPLAN, 2006).…”

The International Handbooks of Population offer up-to-date scholarly summaries and sources of information on the major subject areas and issues of demography and population. Each handbook examines its particular subject area in depth, providing timely, accessible coverage of its full scale and scope, discusses substantive contributions for deeper understanding, and provides reliable guidance on the direction of future developments.Volumes will explore topics of vital interest: Population Aging, Poverty, Mortality, Family Demography, Migration, Race and Ethnic Demography and more. Each volume will provide a state-of-the-art treatment of its respective area. The series will quickly prove useful to a broad audience including demographers, practitioners and scholars across a range of disciplines.

“…But economics is seen as the profits that cities can generate because of the companies implementation and development associated. Madaleno and Gurovich (2004) pointed out the need of a balance between market driven growth and cities spatially driven planning. Two of the search words were used by Özcürea et al (2011).…”

“…These include shortages of skilled personnel, as well as work and process safety, and the need to provide energy markets with secure energy supplies whilst simultaneously reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Madaleno and Gurovich (2004) Case study performed in Santiago city to discuss the validity of the "urban versus rural" dichotomy in scientific literature, statistics and urban planning practice, especially in empirical studies developed around the issue of vegetable and animal farming inside and around cities.…”

Nowadays discussion on global cities concept is being addressed on European level. The concept is a consequence of multiplicities of globalization processes adding different layers according to social, economic and environmental requirements. Cities must also be seen as working systems, with the same needs and requirements in terms of safety and well-being that are considered for other systems. In this paper Authors address the evidences that support the importance of this additional layer. Different sources were used in order to obtain the data related to working systems and their relation to the global cities concept. The conducted systematic review indicate that the search words: sustainability, occupational and global city were not crossed for research. Furthermore, challenges that cities are facing must be understood as additional source of motivation and innovation towards a global city. Cities must also be seen as working systems, with the same needs and requirements in terms of safety and well-being that are considered for other systems.
