HiTool – Sketching and evaluation of architectures

Mit HiTool werden Architekturskizzen entworfen. Alternative Entwürfe sind anhand eines Kriterienkataloges vergleichbar. — Generative design means that the transition to the next phase is automated.

HiTool is used to create architectural sketches.
A criteria catalog can be applied to compare alternative drafts.
A direct interface to the program Matlab/Simulink allows simulation to be directly integrated into the design process.
Scenarios can be tried out with minimal effort. Voltage and current curves at components’ input and output are shown directly in the architectural draft.
