A graph-based computerized optimal conceptual design synthesis within the distributed multi-disciplinary resource environment

الملخص EN

The trend of inter-disciplinary conceptual design synthesis requires designers to involve more and more distributed multi-disciplinary design resources.

therefore, this paper proposes a graph-based computerized optimal conceptual design synthesis to help designers explore novel design schemes within the distributed multi-disciplinary resource environment.

the design resources tightly related to the design goal can be extracted from the huge resource environment by a proposed searching engine.

the optimal design scheme can be generated from these related design resources by a proposed graph-based algorithm.

a set of computer applications called automatic conceptual design system (ACDS) is established to verify the feasibility of this proposed conceptual design synthesis, and a garbage power system’s conceptual design is completed by this software prototype.
