本研究是对设计的数学理论--通用设计理论（GDT）的批判性回顾。它回顾了假设（公理）和预测（定理）的GDT与设计，并说明了他们与简单的例子。GDT与设计方面的范围，它提供了建设计算机辅助设计（CAD）系统的指导方针，并实施这些指导方针的可能性进行了研究。GDT的假设是过于限制直接应用于设计，并修改理论，试图扩大其范围的几个潜在途径进行了讨论。然而，这些修改可能不会导致证明关于设计的强有力的预测。将GDT视为一个模型，而不是设计的准确反映，允许将指南视为需要经验检验的假设。本文将讨论这些准则以及体现其中一些准则的一些实验性实现。
This study is a critical review of General Design Theory (GDT), a mathematical theory of design. It reviews the assumptions (axioms) and predictions (theorems) of GDT with respect to design and illustrates them with simple examples. The scope of GDT with respect to design, the guidelines it provides for building computer-aided design (CAD) systems, and the possibility of implementing these guidelines are examined. GDT assumptions are too restrictive to apply directly to design, and several potential avenues for modifying the theory to attempt to broaden its scope are discussed. Nevertheless, these modifications may not lead to proving strong predictions about design. Treating GDT as a model, rather than as an accurate reflection of design, allows treating the guidelines as hypotheses to be tested empirically. The article discusses these guidelines and some experimental implementations that embody some of them.
