Abstract :
This paper reviews the research conducted in the Design Technology Research Centre in the School of Design of the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Several major approaches to computational design are reviewed and analyzed. Based on the review and critical analysis of the results achieved so far, a more design oriented approach is proposed for the continuation of the research in this direction and the development of more effective tools supporting designers in collaborative environments.
