Two of the anticipated four laboratories tasks; i.e., roles C,c and C,e are occupied already in relationship with institutions of a known performance record, and individuals[ at CEPT University. with proved research and academic abilities. Two near-identical projects concerning with Knowledge Structures in Architectural Studies and Production, are proposed at (C,e) level, this is done so as to maximize technology re-use, and so as to reduce the semantic distance between C,c and C,e Laboratories. Either of the proposed organisation can substitute the other.

The project defined above revolves around a doubling, or a strategic redundancy, where the processes C,e and C,c; while mutually exclusive and unique, can in practice substitute for one-another. The two processes, also, work towards the same objective: the characterization of knowledge as it is formed in a multitude of architectural practices. A corresponding outwards (publishing / dissemination) aspect of the processes is visualized through Architexturez Network, which is an inter-network existent amongst the various Indian institutions working with architecture and physical space. |
The matrix of projects thus constructed is expressed in the following diagramme, which has three types of roles, i.e., Abstract roles, Concrete roles and Masters courses…
