Resumen

The architectural design process may utilize decision-making algorithms; usually, this takes a long time when using analog methods. Today, sequential processing (CPU) or parallel processing (GPU) works with architectural design in different ways, such as Graphical User Interfaces using CPU or ray-tracing rendering using GPU. Architectural design paradigms have not yet fully adapted to the processing computer core paradigm. Thus, this research proposes design guidelines to take the computing core paradigm and transport it to architectural design with a practical case that tests the core’s performance with a genetic algorithm (form-finding process). The genetic algorithm was tested on a computer based on a central processing unit (CPU), another on a graphics processing unit (GPU), and the last one on quantum computers (Quantum Gates). The guidelines operate these cores under the cloud computing paradigm, supported by new components made in Rhinoceros–Grasshopper 3D. The discussion shows the integration of the computation core paradigm with the current digital architecture design process.
