设计是工程学的核心活动。它既是一个不容易定义的创造性过程，也是一个思维过程，随着成功的增加，它可以被具体化、表达和建模。这本书的目的是澄清问题，提供了一个工程设计的操作定义和设计作为一门学科的解释。特别是，本书重点介绍了AI（人工智能）对工程设计的贡献。本书清晰地介绍了最近基于人工智能的设计模型的主要思想，并将其置于归纳设计模型的背景下，为当前的设计思想提供了一个综合的视角。还包括一些关键的基于AI的问题解决方法和经典设计工具的简要回顾。最后，作者展望了符号表示和基于知识的（专家）系统在工程设计实践和教育中可以发挥的作用。
Design is a central activity in engineering. It is both a creative process not easily defined and a thought process that can, with increasing success, be externalized, articulated, and modelled. This book aims to clarify the issues, providing an operational definition of engineering design and an explication of design as a discipline. In particular, the book focuses on the contribution of AI (artificial intelligence) to engineering design. With its clear presentation of the main ideas of recent AI-based models of design, set within the context of inductive design models, the book offers an integrated view of current thinking about design. Also included is a brief review of some key AI-based problem-solving methods and classical design tools. The author closes with a look ahead at the roles that symbolic representation and knowledge-based (expert) systems can play in engineering design in practice and in education.
