In the traditional Axiomatic Design (AD) theory, the mapping from the functional domain to the physical domain is based on the designers’ own knowledge and experience, and there is no systematical approach including the design resources provided outside the designers themselves’ access. Thus, the raw materials for the design process are largely limited, which means they can hardly support the designers’ increasingly creative and innovative conceptions. To help AD theory better support the design process, this paper proposes a computer-aided approach for the mapping from the functional domain to the physical domain within a distributed design resource environment, which consists of numerous design resources offered on the Internet by the providers widely distributed in different locations, institutes, and disciplines. To prove the feasibility of this proposed approach, a software prototype is established, and a natural leisure hotel is designed as an implementation case.

利用分布式设计资源环境改进公理设计理论的计算机辅助方法

在传统的公理设计（AD）理论中，从功能域到物理域的映射是基于设计者自己的知识和经验，没有系统化的方法包括在设计者自己访问之外提供的设计资源。因此，设计过程的原材料在很大程度上是有限的，这意味着它们很难支持设计师日益创新和创新的理念。为了帮助 AD 理论更好地支持设计过程，本文提出了一种计算机辅助方法，用于在分布式设计资源环境中从功能域映射到物理域，该环境由 Internet 上广泛提供的众多设计资源组成。分布在不同的地点、机构和学科。
