The Castlemaine Project: Development of an AI-based Drug Design Support System
Edward E. Hodgkin · 1994
The Castlemaine project is a 2½ year (December 1989 to May 1992) industrial and academic collaborative research project sponsored by the Information Engineering Directorate of the Department of Trade and Industry, a follow-up to the Alvey programme of the 1980s. The goals of the project, inspired by the ideas of Smithers and his co-workers in Edinburgh, 1 are: To produce a domain-independent model of the design process and an associated knowledge-based design support system with an architecture which attempts to embody some of this model. To produce a model specific to the domain of drug design. To produce support systems for drug design.
