Abstract This paper is about tool support for knowledgeintensive engineering tasks. In particular, it introduces software technology to assist the design of complex technical syste...
Abstract--In this two-part paper, we study the design and optimization of limited feedback single-user and multiuser systems with a multiple-antenna base station and single-antenna...
Most real world engineering design optimisation approaches reported in the literature aim to find the best set of solutions using computationally expensive quantitative (QT ) mode...
The facility design problem is a common one in manufacturing and service industries and has been studied extensively in the literature. However, restrictions on the scope of the de...

This paper describes the vital role of freehand sketching in the design process. When designers first tackle a design problem they usually do so by sketching. We will explore the ...
In this paper, we revisit a general class of multi-criteria multi-constrained network design problems and attempt to solve, in a novel way, with Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs). A ma...
— The Internet still lacks adequate support for QoS applications with real-time requirements. In great part, this is due to the fact that provisioning of end-to-end QoS to traf...
Abstract. This paper is on the automation of knowledge-intensive tasks in engineering domains; here, the term “task” relates to analysis and synthesis tasks, such as diagnosis ...
Design patterns embody proven solutions to recurring design problems. Ever since the gang of four popularized the concept, researchers have been trying to develop methods for repre...
In this paper we propose new solution methods for designing tag sets for use in universal DNA arrays. First, we give integer linear programming formulations for two previous formal...
