摘要: From the Publisher: In early 1960s systematic techniques were introduced to guide engineers in producing high-quality designs. By mid-1980s, these methods evolved from their informal guideline-like origins more formal computable methods. Recently, highly automated design synthesis have emerged. This timely work reviews state of art It also provides an in-depth exploration several representative projects and examines future directions computational research. The chapters are written by internationally renowned experts engineering architectural design.
