authors	Oxman, R., Oxman, R.E. and Radford, A.D.
year	1988
title	The Pedagogical Role of the Computer in Design Studies
source	Computer Bulletin. September, 1988. pp. 11-17 : ill. includes a short bibliography
summary	The teaching of architectural design involves the transfer of a broad spectrum of knowledge. This ranges in diversity from the acquisition of skills to those types of domain- distinctive knowledge which are actually employed in the generation of designs. The authors make a broad distinction between instrumental knowledge employed in various stages of design but peripheral to the actual process of generating designs, and conceptual-configurative knowledge which, in fact, makes the generation of designs possible. In the model of the design process in which there is a sequential relationship between the conceptual-formal and physical- material stages of design, this distinction between the instrumental and the conceptual is most marked during the early, or conceptual, stages of design. However it may be seen to follow through all stages of the design process

title	Design Teaching: The Language of Architectural Plans
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.1988.099
source	Computing in Design Education [ACADIA Conference Proceedings] Ann Arbor (Michigan / USA) 28-30 October 1988, pp. 99-110
summary	The aims, operation and student reaction to a design studio course for beginning architecture students on the syntax of architectural plans are described. The course is highly structured and draws from computer graphics templates and a teaching manual which set up a series of exercises. The process of learning comes from execution of the exercises and from associated reading, discussion and debate on architectural planning issues.

title	Educating for the Unknown: Present Computer Education for Future Design Practice
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.acadia.1988.047
source	Computing in Design Education [ACADIA Conference Proceedings] Ann Arbor (Michigan / USA) 28-30 October 1988, pp. 47-57
summary	The penetration of computing and computer-aided design into current and future architectural practise is examined and the implications for education discussed. It is argued that computing is part of the working environment in which both education and practise exist and that the content of education needs to be reinterpreted in the context of this new environment.

title	Design Optimization in Computer-Aided Architectural Design
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.2005.149
source	CAADRIA 2005 [Proceedings of the 10th International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / ISBN 89-7141-648-3] New Delhi (India) 28-30 April 2005, vol. 2, pp. 149-159
summary	The proposition of using design optimization to formalize and add rigor to the decision-making process in building and construction was earlier compiled by Radford et al. in 1988, providing an in-depth demonstration of techniques available at the time. Much has changed since, both in the available solution methods and the nature of the problems themselves. This paper provides an updated insight into past and current trends of using this engineering design paradigm to solve architectural design problems, with an emphasis on continuous nonlinear formulations of simulation-based problems. The paper demonstrates different problem formulations and current techniques for solving them. Examples from recent research are used to demonstrate significant achievements and existing challenges associated with formalizing and solving decision-making tasks in architecture.
