Abstract: | In this paper, we present a framework for organizing, evaluating, and developing knowledge-based models of the design process. We argue that evaluation of a design process model can be carried out from three usefully distinguished perspectives: the knowledge it embodies; the functionality of the design process, from a problem-solving viewpoint; and the implementation of the design process as an actual program. This paper focuses on the first two perspective. We systematically introduce a set of basic functional components, and show how existing approaches or systems can be viewed as configurations of these components, in which domain knowledge has been incorporated. As we lay out this framework, we illustrate it in a simple way by using it to describe knowledge-based house floorplanners. We then complete our presentation by analysing a more complex knowledge-based system (DONTE) that designs circuits. |
