Abstract

Declarative modeling allows the designer to describe a scene without the need to define the geometric properties. The MultiCAD architecture implements the declarative forward design, accepting a declarative description and generating a set of geometric solutions that meet the description. The aim of the presented work is to settle the reverse design process through the RS-MultiCAD component, a knowledge-based system, in order to extend MultiCAD declarative conception cycle to an automated iterative process. The RS-MultiCAD receives a selected geometric solution, which is semantically understood, permits the designer to perform geometric and topological modifications on the scene, and results a declarative description which embodies the designer modifications. That declarative description leads to more promising solutions by reducing the initial solution space.
