Descripción: The ability to suggest a means of solving a novel problem through the remembering and recalling of previous experiences is a tenet of the Case-based reasoning (CBR) paradigm. This approach is well suited for the engineering design domain since an effective and efficient solution can often be synthesized based upon previous designs rather than starting from scratch.
Although significant advances have been made, this technique suffers disadvantages when dealing with complex design problems and novel situations. This thesis aims at automating CBR's adaptation mechanism, that up until now had yet to be fully explored, as a way for solving the non-routine design of complex structures such as electromagnetic devices.
We propose a system architecture that combines the strength of multiple reasoning paradigms built on top of CBR. It flexibly uses different knowledge sources, fully exploits its experiences, and provides a dynamic environment where different alternatives can be examined under different abstraction views. In addition, such a framework can be used to broaden the spectrum of design problem solving from routine and non-routine to future creative design.
