Abstract

This paper deals with a new, computer-aided approach to floor-layout design. The approach proposes: firstly, a specific layout language with a syntactic knowledge defined by means of hierarchical hypergraphs; secondly, a correspondence between layout modifications and hypergraph operations. An initial layout drawn by the designer is automatically converted into a hypergraph and each designer's modification to the layout is reflected in the hypergraph structure. Our new approach is illustrated by a step by step example, where two complementary representations of the same floor-layout design are used.
