In familiar design domains, expert designers are able to quickly focus on “good designs”, based on constraints they have learned while exploring the design space. This ability ...
To support 3D architectural modeling, geometric constraints are introduced. Explicit and implicit geometric relations between building elements can be expressed by the designer an...

It is well known that local patterns are at the core of a lot of knowledge which may be discovered from data. Nevertheless, use of local patterns is limited by their huge number an...
Solid modeling based on partial differential equations (PDEs) can potentially unify both geometric constraints and functional requirements within a single design framework to mode...
Object-oriented applications are difficult to extend and maintain, due to the presence of implicit dependencies in the inheritance hierarchy. Although these dependencies often co...
