Abstract

In this paper, we present the conception of an intelligent CAD application for architectural design and describe its realization using the knowledge base management system KRISYS. Our application integrates all relevant information regarding the design of one-story houses into a product model. It divides the design process in three main phases, in which the product model is used as basis for the execution of the functional, topological, and geometrical design. In the paper, we give an overview of this product model and describe the system activities that are carried out in each of the design phases.
