Abstract :
This paper talks about the issue of "architecture". The hypothesis of green architecture makes a touchstone for modern architecture, since the slow development of the former reflects the confusion in the latter, which requires a review of the traditional architectural behaviors and the construction processes. In fact, green architecture involves the engineering system of architecture, while modern architecture has already evolved into an open and complex artificial system. Hence the ideas of and the approaches to the Sciences of Artificial can be referred to by modern architecture.
