ABSTRACT: Urban development programming counted one of the major important stages
of planning and design. Urban projects process still has not enough consideration
to urban development programming stage. This step sometimes missed
in urban development projects or confused with tasks of urban development
planning. It has been slow to achieve full existence. Methodology and strategies
of urban development do not set clear the limits to the mission of urban
development programming. The knowledge about the urban programming
process and skilled programmers, architects or planners is one of the major
issues of these days. This research investigates the concept of urban development
programming in urban projects, to indicate the separation of architectural
programming and urban programming tasks, and additionally, obtaining
to innovate a new methodology and analyze the challenges and implementation.
This methodology is determining the urban development programming
task as well as strategies for implementation. The process of urban development
programming and methods could give opportunities to programmers,
planners, users, developers and urban authorities to implement this major
important phase in urban projects. The research explicitly explains that urban
development programming is a part of urban development planning and
simplifying the process of planning.
