Abstract :
A representation for design cases and a method for indexing known cases to ease their retrieval, given the specification of a new problem, are presented. Each description includes structural and performance characteristics. Methods to retrieve known cases, to match them to often incomplete problem specifications, and to adapt them to solve the problem are devised
