Tractable Shape Grammars [PDF]
In this paper we explore the theoretical basis for a concept of ‘computation-friendly’ shape grammars, through a formal examination of tractability of the grammar formalism. Although a variety of shape grammar definitions have evolved over time, it is possible to unify these to be backwards compatible.

Shapes: Seeing and Doing with Shape Grammars
This paper describes the visual interface of a configurable and extensible system to support generic work with shape grammars. Shape grammars allow the implementation of computational mechanisms to analyze and synthesize designs of visual languages and have been used to represent the knowledge behind the creative work of architects, designers and ...

Implementation of Curved Shape Grammars [PDF]
Research into shape grammar implementation has been largely concerned with rectilinear shapes and there has been limited research into implementation on shapes composed of curves. This reflects developments of the shape grammar formalism which has been defined largely according to straight lines, planes, and associated volumes.
