人类正面临着重大的社会挑战，这些挑战在其驱动因素、相互作用和影响的性质上是复杂和系统的。由于建筑物和城市在这些社会挑战中发挥着重要作用，我们需要可靠的方法来评估其弹性和可持续性。考虑到建筑和城市系统通常是紧密耦合的，我们严格审查了9个建筑规模的评估框架和7个城市规模的评估框架，从高到低的组成系统之间的因果关系进行排名。我们确定了在不同程度上跨越整个评估框架的四个主要知识差距：（1）组成系统及其子系统之间的因果关系有限;（2）可持续性和复原力的定义过于狭窄;（3）社会系统未得到充分解决;（4）建筑和城市规模的评估联系不佳。为了解决这些局限性，我们简要介绍了几个密切相关的研究领域，包括综合评估和建模，社会生态系统研究，土地系统科学，社会环境系统建模，人类行为建模，多尺度建模和多保真度建模。在这些迅速兴起的研究领域的基础上，我们提出了一个更全面，多尺度，系统的系统方法，使用几个共同的系统连接建筑和城市规模。
Humanity is facing major societal challenges that are complex and systemic in the nature of their drivers, interactions, and impacts. Because buildings and cities play a substantial role in these societal challenges, we need reliable approaches that can be used to assess their resilience and sustainability. Given that building and urban systems are usually tightly coupled, we critically review nine building-scale assessment frameworks and seven urban-scale assessment frameworks, ranking them from high to low in terms of the causality among component systems. We identify four major knowledge gaps that, to varying degrees, span the entire range of assessment frameworks: (1) causality among component systems and their subsystems is limited; (2) sustainability and resilience are too narrowly defined; (3) social systems are inadequately addressed; and (4) building- and urban-scale assessments are poorly connected. To address these limitations, we briefly introduce several closely-related fields of research including integrated assessment and modeling, social-ecological systems research, land systems science, socio-environmental systems modeling, modeling of human behavior, multi-scale modeling, and multi-fidelity modeling. Building on these rapidly emerging research domains, we conclude by proposing a more holistic, multi-scale, system-of-systems approach that connects across building and urban scales using several common systems.
