Next Generation Parametric Design
This paper presents a novel, next-generation, cloud-native parametric and associative platform for digital knowledge, services and automation, and the rationalisation behind the development of and the need for this platform in relation to the history of computational design and engineering, and the advantages and limitations of each step in this evolution: Computer Aided Design (CAD), Building Information Modelling (BIM), Finite Element Analysis (FEA), Parametric and Associative Design (PAD), Generative Design and programming approaches to design and engineering. The paper discusses some of the key functionalities in relation to why they are useful as a next step in the digital transformation of the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. The paper concludes with some of the challenges for the near future of this platform.
Reproducibility Dossier
GEOMDIGEST treats reproducibility as an evidence trail: public artifacts, documentation, data, packaging, archival stability, and verification checks. Numeric scores are only exposed for audited records; public pages prioritize the evidence itself.
