Abstract
A design application interacts with an end-user to generate design problem geometry that reflects a design problem to be solved. Various design objectives, design constraints, boundary conditions, and other design criteria may be associated with the design problem geometry via the design application. When the design problem is sufficiently well defined, a client-side solver generates a solution approximation using a coarse multi-objective solver. The client-side solver favors speed over accuracy, and so the solution approximation provides only a rough representation of various attributes of potentially feasible design solutions. Based on the solution approximation, the end-user may correct any omissions, mistakes, and so forth, before executing pay-per-service cloud-based parallel solver.
