Publication number: 20140288890Abstract: Systems and methods for realizing a complex building system are disclosed. The systems and methods utilize computer-based techniques to rapidly explore large numbers of pattern matching scenarios on a scale which heretofore has not been attempted. In an embodiment, the computer-based technique performs large-scale pattern matching operations to find the best match between functional patterns and spatial patterns. For example, with reference to a particular building system, the technique involves operational modeling to identify the types and volumes of services to provide (functional patterns) and to characterize the physical relationships between the services (e.g., adjacency preferences), along with establishing libraries of three dimensional spaces (spatial patterns), in the form of room and department libraries and building massing configuration libraries.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2014Publication date: September 25, 2014Applicant: ADITAZZ, INC.Inventors: Alexander Khainson, Zachary Deretsky, Deepak Aatresh, Ward A.
