为了支持早期的概念化阶段的建筑与计算机辅助解决方案，特别是检索系统，可以找到类似的结构建筑设计在全面的集合，这样的设计，提出了一些方法。在Metis项目中，开发了两种检索协调方法（协调器）来管理对建筑设计的相似（子）结构的搜索。两个协调员的主要任务是选择适合给定用户查询的检索方法。第一种方法是一个独立的服务，只使用规则来协调检索，可以使用子图匹配和数据库搜索方法，而第二个是基于规则和案例的，是一个分布式系统的一部分，基于案例的检索建筑设计。我们在一项用户研究中比较了这两个协调员，以找出这两个协调员目前拥有的优势和劣势，以及它们在建筑概念化阶段的检索场景中可能是合适的。结果表明，特定场景的复杂性和搜索的目的是区分两个协调员的主要点。基于规则的协调器执行更好的搜索时，需要精确的（子）结构，而基于规则和案例的协调器是适当的查询，旨在用于探索和一般搜索的灵感。需要改进两个协调员成果的可视化。
To support the early conceptualization phase in architecture with computer-aided solutions, in particular, with retrieval systems that can find similarly structured building designs in comprehensive collections of such designs, a number of approaches were presented to date. In the Metis project two retrieval coordination approaches (coordinators) were developed to govern the search of similar (sub-)structures of architectural designs. The main task of both coordinators is to select the retrieval method that is appropriate for the given user query. First approach is a standalone service that uses rules only to coordinate the retrieval and can use subgraph matching and database search methods, whereas the second one is rule- and case-based and is part of a distributed system for case-based retrieval of architectural designs. We compared both coordinators in a user study to find out which strengths and weaknesses both coordinators currently possess, and for which retrieval scenarios of the architectural conceptualization phase they could be appropriate. The results showed that the complexity of the particular scenario and the purpose of search are the main points that differentiate both coordinators. The rule-based coordinator performed better when a search for exact (sub-)structures was required, whereas the rule- and case-based coordinator is appropriate for queries aimed to be used for exploration and general search for inspiration. Visualization of the results of both coordinators is in need of improvement.
