Posted

Problems involving the arrangement of objects in two- or three-space where the objective function primarily consists of derivatives of the distance between objects or their arrangement are called space planning problems. The representational requirements for this problem area are defined and compared with current computer graphic languages. Four alternative data structures that allow automated space planning are described and compared.
