SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR OPTIMIZING AN ARRANGEMENT OF OBJECTS FORMED FROM AT LEAST ONE STRUCTURE IN ORDER TO USE SAID OBJECTS TO DESIGN A TECHNICAL INSTALLATION
First Claim
1. A system for optimizing an arrangement of objects formed from at least one structure in order to use said objects to design a technical installation, comprising:
- a selection device for selecting objects that are filtered from a set of provided objects on a basis of properties of the objects and/or arrangement conditions derived from the relationships of said objects among one another and/or by means of prescribable parameters;
a processing device that is designed to make an association between each selected object and at least one subarea of the technical installation;
an optimization device that is designed to perform optimization of the arrangement of the selected objects within their subarea, if need be iteratively, by rotating and/or by tilting and/or sorting and/or rearranging said objects; and
an output device for outputting the optimized arrangement of the objects in order to use this arrangement for designing the installation.

Abstract
A system, method, and an associated computer program (product) for optimizing an arrangement of objects formed from at least one structure in order to use objects to design a technical installation is provided. The system has: a selection device for selecting objects that are filtered from a set of provided objects on the basis of properties of the objects and/or arrangement conditions derived from the relationships of the objects among one another and/or by means of prescribable parameters, a processing device designed to make an association between each selected object and at least one subarea of the technical installation, an optimization device designed to perform optimization of the arrangement of the selected objects within their subarea, if need be iteratively, by rotating and/or by tilting and/or sorting and/or rearranging the objects, an output device for outputting the optimized arrangement of the objects to use this arrangement for designing the installation.

12. A method for optimizing an arrangement of objects formed from at least one structure in order to use said objects to design a technical installation, comprising the following steps:
-
selection of objects that are filtered from a set of provided objects on the basis of the properties of the objects and/or arrangement conditions derived from the relationships of said objects among one another and/or by means of prescribable parameters; association of each selected object with at least one subarea of the technical installation; if need be iterative optimization of the arrangement of the selected objects within their subarea by rotating and/or by tilting and/or by sorting and/or rearranging said objects; and output of the optimized arrangement of the objects in order to use this arrangement for designing the installation. - View Dependent Claims (21)
