title	Creativity, emergence and evolution in design: concepts and framework
source	Knowledge-Based Systems 9(7): 435-448
summary	This paper commences by outlining notions of creativity before examining the role of emergence in creative design. Various process models of emergence are presented; these are based on notions of additive and substitutive variables resulting in additive and substitutive schemas. Frameworks for both representation and process for a computational model of creative design are presented. The representational framework is based on design prototypes whilst the process framework is based on an evolutionary model. The computational model brings both representation and process together.

title	Conceptual designing as a sequence of situated acts
source	I. Smith (Ed.), Artificial Intelligence in Structural Engineering, Springer, Berlin, pp. 165-177
summary	This paper introduces conceptual designing within an F-B-S framework. It then goes on to describe a number of models of designing before introducing the notions of situatedness and situated acts. The remainder of the paper describes the role of situatedness and situated acts in conceptual designing. It attempts to show that a number of otherwise difficult design phenomena are modelable using situatedness and situated acts. A demonstration example concludes the paper along with some of the research issues this view of designing brings with it.

title	Representation and reasoning about shapes: Cognitive and computational studies in visual reasoning in design
source	C. Freksa and D. Marks (eds), Spatial Information Theory, Springer, Berlin, pp. 315-330
summary	This paper describes some recent cognitively-based and computationally-based research on representing and reasoning about shapes. The cognitive studies are based on protocol analyses of designers and indicatethat visual reasoning in design involves drawings of shapes and their relationsin the generation of unexpected results. The computational studies are concerned with the development of qualitative representations of shapesthat can be used to reason about shapes. Two representations are described: half-planes and landmark-based qualitative codes. Reasoning using these representations is presented.

title	Expert Systems in Computer-Aided Design
source	IFIP WG 5.2 Working Conference on Expert Systems in Computer-Aided Design. proceedings. 1987. 533 p. : ill. Amsterdam: North-Holland, 1987. Also published as a book by North Holland (Amsterdam, 1987)
summary	The aim of the Expert Systems in Computer-Aided Design conference was to provide a forum for the exchange of ideas and experiences related to expert systems in computer-aided design, to present and explore the state-of-the-art of expert systems in computer-aided design, to delineate future directions in both research and practice and to promote further development. Seventeen of the nineteen papers accepted were presented with each presentation followed by a round table discussion. The discussion was taped, transcribed and edited and forms part of this volume. The authors came from seven countries, whilst the attendees represented some thirteen nationalities. There is an implicit structure in the ordering of the papers, commencing with system architectures, representation tools through applications to specific design concerns. These papers demonstrate the wide variety of knowledge engineering tools needed in computer-aided design. It is interesting to observe the progression over these three conferences in the ratio of computer scientists to design researchers amongst the authors. The balance over the period has swung from a predominance of computer scientists to a predominance of design researchers. We are beginning to see knowledge engineering development driven by designers' needs

title	Artificial Intelligence in Engineering : Diagnosis and Learning
source	421 p. Amsterdam: Elsevier/CMP, 1988. CADLINE has abstract only
summary	This volume contains the papers in the diagnosis and learning areas from the Third International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Engineering. Diagnosis and learning are two of the important areas of artificial intelligence of interest to engineering. Diagnosis derives its name from the early systems work related to diagnosing medical disorders. In engineering it has come to mean both diagnosis (in the medical sense) and evaluation or analysis (in the engineering sense). The use of symbolic reasoning has substantially expanded the functions and roles of diagnosis in engineering. Learning is a novel area of computer application in engineering and has no counterpart in traditional engineering but is becoming an important area. The papers in this volume are under the following headings: Diagnosis from Structure and Behavior; Integrated Diagnostic Reasoning; Diagnosis as Control; Diagnosis Processes and Environments; Learning and Tutoring

summary	This volume contains the papers in the robotics and processes areas from the Third International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Engineering. Robotics has the potential to change the physical face of engineering and has no counterpart in traditional engineering. It requires the integration of numerous disparate aspects of engineering. There is a fundamental requirement for geometric and spatial reasoning of a qualitative kind. A variety of other processes in engineering are being examined through the artificial intelligence lens. The material collected under the process rubric demonstrates both the benefits and potential of utilizing this approach. The papers are presented under the following headings: Robotics; Geometric and Spatial Reasoning; Interpretation Processes; Reasoning Processes; Planning and Scheduling Processes; Interfaces

title	Artificial Intelligence in Engineering : Design
source	465 p. Amsterdam: Elsevier/CMP, 1988. CADLINE has abstract only
summary	This volume contains the papers in the design area from the Third International Conference on Artificial Intelligence in Engineering. Design is that most fundamental but least understood of engineering activities. Most current computer- aided design systems are primarily concerned with graphical representations of objects as they are being designed. The introduction of artificial intelligence into engineering has fostered the burgeoning interest in formal methods of engineering design. These methods treat design as being modelable using reasoning processes. The papers related to design can be grouped into two categories: those primarily concerned with design knowledge in its various forms and those primarily concerned with applications in specific domains. The papers in this volume are presented under the following headings: Design Knowledge and Representation; Integrated Circuit Design; Mechanical Engineering Design; Structural Engineering Design; Simultaneous Engineering Design; Architectural Design

title	Design Tools as Situated Agents That Adapt To Their Use
source	Digital Design [21th eCAADe Conference Proceedings / ISBN 0-9541183-1-6] Graz (Austria) 17-20 September 2003, pp. 177-180
doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.ecaade.2003.177
summary	Design tools have been built based on a paradigm that is founded on the notion that the tool is unchanged by its use. Humans build up experience in using tools and adapt their use of a tool based on that experience. The claim is that the tool should also adapt based on its experience of its use. This paper founds the notions of tool adaptation on concepts drawn situated cognition.

doi	https://doi.org/10.52842/conf.caadria.1997.377
summary	This paper develops a schema theory based approach to the representation of patterns in architectural shapes. This representation is capable of computer implementation. The adequacy of any representation is critical for information processing in computer-aided design. Shape representation using shape elements and spatial relationships are elaborated and the construction of shape schemas and characteristics of shape schema are investigated. A representation for patterns in architectural shapes is demonstrated.

title	Feature-Based Qualitative Modeling of Objects
source	Proceedings of the Eighth International Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Futures [ISBN 0-7923-8536-5] Atlanta, 7-8 June 1999, pp. 309-320
summary	Objects represent fundamentally important ways with which to perceive and reason about the world. There are very few adequate representations for use at the early stages of designing. Feature- based approaches founded on qualitative representations have been used. This paper extends the qualitative representation developed for two-dimensional shapes to three-dimensional objects. It uses the qualitative representation to detect features. An example of the application of this representation is presented.

title	Exploring Style Emergence in Architectural Designs
source	CAADRIA ‘97 [Proceedings of the Second Conference on Computer Aided Architectural Design Research in Asia / ISBN 957-575-057-8] Taiwan 17-19 April 1997, pp. 287-296
summary	This paper presents an evolutionary approach to style emergence in architectural designs. Emergence is the process of making features explicit which were previously only implicit. Style is considered as a set of common characteristics of a group of designs. It is interpreted using a language model as an analogy and is represented at the genetic level. An evolutionary system based on genetic engineering is developed. It emerges style by locating the genetic structures which produce that style. Preliminary results are presented.
