“…Adapting design cases is more than the surface considerations of making changes to the previous design, it is a design process itself." [12] Automatie adaptation of design cases has been studied by [4] and [17] in building design. These works show that the potential for adaptation of a case very much depends on its representation.…”

Summary. In this chapter we describe an extension of genetic algorithms which utilizes a set of ideas borrowed from the practice of genetic engineering of natural organisms. We show how it can be constructed and implemented computationally and how it enhances the efliciency ofthe genetic algorithm's computational process . We apply it to the solution of a spatial layout planning problem as an exarnple of an NP-complete problem and to case-based layout design as an example of a dass of problem which cannot be solved directly using traditional genetic algorithms.

“…Domeshek and Kolodner, 1992). One case-based reasoning system represents physical form and dynamically calculates values of design characteristics, hinting at the possibility of evaluating experiential characteristics of a design (Dave, et al, 1994). A topological evaluation technique that relates spatial organization to social behavior has been successfully paired with a geometric analysis of visibility (Hanson, 1994).…”

Abstract. This paper describes a prototype system that evaluates an architectural design using the designers theories about how to manifest experiential qualities in physical form. The system uses AT methods in conjunction with geometric and non-geometric knowledge to represent experiential qualities, e.g. privacy, in terms of concrete details of a design, e.g. wall dimensions and locations. This paper describes the organization and implementation of the system, and reports the results of an experiment in which the system was used to evaluate Frank Lloyd Wright Prairie houses.

Abstract:In this paper an object-based CAD programming is used to take advantage of standardization to handle the schematic design, sizing, layout for services in a building ceiling void. From the specification of the building 3D model, our software proceeds through different steps; from the determination of the standard number and size of fan coils to the generation of 3D solutions. In order to deal with more complex geometry and larger problems, we have used a hybrid approach: Case Based Reasoning (CBR) within Constraint Satisfaction Problem (CSP) approaches. In practice, engineers in building services use previous solutions and adapt them to new problems. CBR mirrors this practical approach and does help us to deal with increasingly complex geometry effectively, and meanwhile CSP has been used for layout adaptation. The results have shown that it is possible to define and implement standard solutions to produce designs comparable with current practice. The benchmarking exercise has underlined many advantages and made some suggestions for further development. This project is funded by The Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) in UK.
