Abstract
The application of modern feature based CAD systems has in many
companies lead to significant rationalisation of design,
particulary the "down stream" acticities such as NC code
generation, FEM analysis, mould flow simulation and documentation.
The subject of this paper is the "up stream" activities, i.e.the
synthesis of designs. One can now ask: what preconditions have to
be fulfilled in order to be able to synthesize designs in an
interplay with a computer system, a Designer's Workbench (DWB).
One precondition seems to be the existence of one or more design
languaes or design grammars, thus the designer can "spell" a
desig. This paper will propose contents of a design
language/design grammar.
