society is facing require the abilityto comprehend complex problems and analyze them bearing in mind diverse perspectives. Forthis reason, the faculty defined a series of projects to study how the built environment can beenvisioned. Diverse examples of project collaborations between engineering and architectureprograms are to contribute to the education of future professionals to be able to operate in acollaborative environment, though leadership and innovation coordinated activities [1][2].MethodologyTerms such as ubiquitous computing and cloud computing have been embedded in a diversity ofdisciplines, due to its broad applications. Novel schemes in ubiquitous computing enable theopportunity to embed technology into the activities of everyday
