The Impact of User Interfaces on CAD Systems

by Paul Teicholz, Stanford Univ, Stanford, United States,
Paul Chinowsky, Stanford Univ, Stanford, United States,



Document Type: Proceeding Paper

Part of: Preparing for Construction in the 21st Century

Abstract:

The generation of architectural layouts through knowledge-based techniques forms a notable focus in design research efforts. A significant aspect of this research centers upon the development of user interfaces which permit designers to take a participatory role in the development of layout solutions. This paper focuses on issues associated with the development of these user interfaces, and introduces one implementation under development in the Computer-Aided Architectural Design Expert project at Stanford University.
