Abstract
This paper introduces a new approach to the conceptual design of mecha nical systems from qualitative specifications of behavior. The power o f the approach stems from the integration of techniques in qualitative physics and constraint programming. We illustrate the approach with a n effective kinematic synthesis method that reasons with qualitative r epresentations of configuration spaces using constraint programming.
