In some instances starting VICO Office on 64 bit system could be a bit problematic during an active VPN session or immediately followed closing of such. In order to jump start VICO Office, VERSANT database service needs to be restarted. Simply open your Computer management panel and under listed services look for "VERSANTD", select it and restart it.
This will take care of your post VPN blank VICO Office dashboard .

Revit Categories....
While mapping our assembly classification from Uniformat II to OmniClass Table 21 I needed the list of Revit object categories. This is only a part of that 200+ entry list that can be accessed upon exporting Revit model to ODBC.

Design Computation Symposium
AU had a great start with the symposium that addressed several direction in development of computational design. Informative sessions by the leaders in the advanced use of computation tools shed some light on the future of digital media its role within anthropocentric reality.
Notable lecture were given by prof. Dr. Kristina Shea on integration of knowledge management and generative design and fabrication, Jos Stam on Unified Dynamic Solver used in CG apps to simulate physical effects in a dynamic systems and Prof. Joe Clark of University of Strathclyde on Building Performance Simulation and the need for a unified model approach required for the whole building energy analysis.

AU Building Performance Analysis
This year's AU attention to sustainable design with the aid of Autodesk's BIM enabled applications is just another confirmation that ADSK means green business. I am particularly interested to see how far down the road we can push the information gathered through sustainability analysis during the design process into the construction activities. Some courses look very promising in that regard.
Along the same lines they just ‘up the ante’ by conducting the survey of their existing facilities from the energy footprint point of view. These results are published and posted on Autodesk’s website (Link).
