Literature Survey on Automatic Pipe Routing

Abstract Piping systems are common in many architectures and designing such is often a complex task. Design automation of piping therefore universal research subject. Nonetheless, these still designed by hand as result their complexity. Consequently, costs associated with design high, especially for large-scale like ships chemical plants. The goal automatic pipe routing to reduce the time system automating pipes. This survey provides an overview current state literature assist researchers practitioners further study routing. done pinpointing explaining most important obstacles that stand way making full-scale method. barriers analyzed related both model representation optimization Finally, synthesis table papers on provided based handling aforementioned other general features methodology. concludes discussing directions research.
