摘      要：This paper shows that optimization concepts are particularly useful in design because of their direct assistance in decision making. In this they subsume evaluation or appraisal techniques. One approach based on dynamic programming is presented as being directly applicable in computer-aided architectural design. Multi-attribute objectives in design can be handled using optimization concepts. Finally, multi-objective design, including multi-attribute multi-objective design, can be handled via the use of Pareto optimality approaches. The result of such processes is a solution database which the designer searches. The solution database contains information about the design decisions themselves as well as the performance of each solution in its various objectives. The designer still assumes responsibility for selecting particular solutions since there is no unique solution produced. It is suggested that any problem which can be manipulated quantitatively can be solved using these concepts. © 1980.
