arXiv:2606.28126v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This article addresses the combinatorial complexity inherent in modern high-tech system design by presenting automation-in-design (AiD) as a transformative paradigm. We propose computational design synthesis (CDS), a framework utilising deep learning and generative AI to automate the creation of novel systems. Two case studies (e-drive system design and spatial dimensioning problem) serve as proof-points for this approach. The AI-driven methods used in the case studies represent a fundamental shift in engineering, advancing from simulation-based
The increasing complexity of high-tech system design, coupled with advancements in deep learning and generative AI, is creating an imperative for automated design solutions.
This development indicates a fundamental shift in engineering methodologies, moving towards automated creation of systems, which significantly impacts innovation cycles and efficiency in technology development.
Engineering design processes will increasingly leverage AI for synthesis and automation, reducing reliance on traditional, labor-intensive approaches and accelerating the development of complex systems.
