Abstract
The problem of automated building design is considered. A new graph-th eory based model is suggested for representing and solving the problem . The model is embodied in a detailed algorithm for generating floorpl ans that meet specified constraints. A prototype system based on this algorithm has produced accurate building plans that are comparable to those designed by (human) architects.
