Spatial Synthesis in Computer-Aided Building Design (Charles M. Eastman eds, 1974)

• The Scope of Computer-Aided Building Design
• Facilities Planning: a Systems Analysis and Space Allocation Approach
• An Information System for Component Building
• IMAGE: Computer Assistant for Architectural Design
• The Design Problem Solver: a System for Designing Equipment or Furniture Layouts
• Formal Languages for Site Planning
• Interaction in the Planning of Buildings
• Mini-Space Planner: a Set of Fortran Routines for Building Space-Planning Programs
• Style in Design

The methods of spatial synthesis described are not likely to change dramatically in the near future. What can be anticipated is that various forms of database integration will allow these techniques to be combined with others to result in practical and powerful tools for building design.
