Do architects need to build physical models or is it all done on the computer?
The advent of easy to use 3d software has made it easier and cheaper to create digital models, not just for architects but for all professions dealing in construction.
The physical model remains however one of the most important and powerful modes of design available to an architect, linking ideas in the mind to tangible and physical representations in space.
To summarize, it's a balance between CAD and real models, sketches on napkins and construction drawings.

First of all, use a network scanner and scan your network and it'll give you a list of every active IP on the network and the hostname of the device ( name ). I recommend an app on the appstore called "iNet" free and fast. It scans whatever subnet your on 192.x or 10.x 184.x etc. It is very useful for big networks for finding computers. Another way is to open your router webpage and it should have a list of every connected client on the network and their IP along with hostnames and mac address.Takes more time using these steps provided but didn't delete it.
1st option is to run ipconfig on each computer and it will tell you the ip address of the computer you are on. To get the name of the computer you can go to the network configuration settings which I will explain in a bit how to get to.
2nd option type in the IP address of the router in the web browser of the one of the computers connected to it, log in to the router with the username and password you used to set it up with, and depending on the router you have you're going to want to look at the log or look around in the different settings to see if you can't find a list of currently connected devices almost eveyr router I've seen to date has had a list somewhere of the devices connected to it
anyways back to option 1....in order to run ipconfig on your computer go to Start menu -> Run (or hold the windows key and press r) type in ipconfig in the box that pops up....if that doesn't work then try typing cmd in the box....you should get an msdos looking window that pops up....from there type in ipconfig....after that look for the IP Address it will be clearly listed there
now as for getting to the name of the computers....I'm not sure about other operating systems but I'm pretty sure it's quite similar across all windows operating systems but I will give you the exact instructions from Windows 2000 Professional which is what OS I happen to run:
1. right click on the My Computer icon which is located on the desktop
2. left click on properties
3. Go to the Network Identification tab
4. Click the properties button
5. Look at the value in the Computer Name box
6. Now you know what the computer's name is
Well, I hope this helped
How do you get in night mare riff in UB Funkeys?

What are advantages and disadvantages of unified process model?
Not sure if here you are meaning a data treatment of let's say, many variable not sorted one by one, but as mass, more or less parametrized.
So i need you to clarify, are you taking about flock instancing :)?
I think you already know, so this is meant more for external readers, pretend you have do manage a crowd, well a crowd is made of many entities, called instances, if any of them has individual AI, the program must sort them one by one before even builind the next frame, so there are multiple process, as any of these individual entity is a process the program needs to manages, and this eats cpu cycles in a geometrical progression.
This is cathegorized as non gaming, so I may assume you might be even talking about client instance managing on databases, and the example can be, having to update millions of fields by logical attribution, without needing to sort them one by one.
Ok, forgive me if i will go on with gaming examples, and talk about flocking, with flocking you can manage a huge group of entities in a single (or few) process, now our crowd is dinamically generated via parameters, the program will create only the people withing your sight, using just a big crowd AI (sadly not so unrealistic, as we are very keen to "flock" our brain into the mass when in crowd), that will react to the environments. The position of any member of the crowd will no more be explicit but implicit, if the crowd will move in a direction, the crowd entity will move accordingly, the crowd density will determine where each individual will be generated, more or less close each other, there also is the crowd extension. And only the people within your view will be individually drawn in a specific location.
I'll cut it short my elementary explanations to the point of interest, the disavantages:
The main are, the major risks of incoherence, indetermination and inaccuracy, roughly. In a word, genericness. About the crowd, there can easily be an inconsistency with the people generated in your view and those outside your view, this especially happens in games where it's often more the graphical result and the impressiveness of a big crowd managed without frame lagging, than the substance.
Flocking is also used in CGI scene for famous wide open field battles, optimized to be fought in a pretty much flat and devoid of obstacles environment :D.
Cause interation of the crowd entity with obstacles can be managed, but it's problem you have to confront with.
Now about client account updates, well let's say, the "age" can be flocked to progress every day, without a need for the servers to individually update them, using just the subtraction function, everytime the instance is requested.
The same can be done for cathegory updating, maybe by updating grops of fields with clauses and condition given determined criterias.

How do you say stay at home in spanish?
Depends really on on the subjective meaning of "I am staying at home" as there is no literal translation.
If you mean I am not going out and staying at home tonight then "Me quedo en mi casa [esta noche]" or maybe I live at home then "Yo vivo en mi casa" or maybe I live in my family home then "Yo vivo en me casa de familia"
PS My Spanish is very poor but hope it helps :)
A spall patch was developed that reset the date fields in all applications - it basically looked for the date protocol and set it to **** instead of **
Although it was a small patch it cost BILLIONS to install and and as much to ensure it actually worked.
