The machine refinement of raw graphic data for translation into a low level data base for computer aided architectural design (CAAD).
… acts as a disincentive against the adoption of CAAD systems by small private architectural practices, is the awkwardness of communicating with computers when compared with traditional drawing board techniques. This consideration, although not perhaps the dominant feature, may be mitigated by the …

Context modeling : extending the parametric object model with design context
… response, perspective or judgment of a thing. Design always takes place in a context. However, current Computer Aided Architectural Design (CAAD) systems don't have a way to represent design knowledge associated with context. This thesis presents a computational model, called Context Modeling …

Conceptual Requirement Validation for Architecture Design Systems
<p>Computer-aided architectural design (CAAD) programs represent architectural design at a low level of spatial abstraction. While this representation model allows CAAD programs to capture the precise spatial characteristics of a design, it means that CAAD programs lack the underlying computational …

The impact of CAAD on design methodology and visual thinking in architectural education.
… thesis aims to explore the potential impact of Computer Aided Architectural Design (CAAD) as a conceptual design tool on the design methodology of final year students. Many design studies have focused on sketching and its relationship with creative thinking to validate CAAD programs as a design …

A computer-aided architectural design system for the analysis, synthesis and appraisal of domestic activity spaces and house plans.
… of domestic activity spaces and of other related design theories have led to the formulation of novel design models for the analysis, synthesis and evaluation processes of house design. A theoretical model of the 2—D plan layout of activity spaces was first developed so as to allow appraisal of …
