Introduction

CREATOR is a case-based design system and descends from IM-RECIDE a case-based reasoning shell.CREATOR implements a compuational model of creative design. The main idea of this system is design space exploration as a way of generating creative design solutions. Other focused issues in this model is the problem elaboration phase and adaptation processes, such as composition of different parts of designs and thematic abstraction. 

Current Work

The project is not yet complete. Currently the adaptation processes are being implemented, as well as the user interface improval that is being carried out by Nuno Cunha and José Espadinha. The evaluation module and automatic acquisition of cases are two future issues of this project.
