- hcarvalhoalves 13y ago> Based on this definition of fitness how would we evaluate the design of Craigslist, Comic Sans, and the Drudge Report? Fitness would be a function of how well the realization maps to the problem domain. That is, how far these are from an ideal Craiglist, Comic Sans and Drudge Report that would each fulfill all the required criteria. It's impossible to evaluate detached from a collection of requisites. That is the hard part. Christopher Alexander proposes a (mathematical) method for collecting these requisites and deriving a design from it by building a direct graph, study the relationships by grouping it, then realizing it by building in successive layers, but not the reverse (taking a realization and working your way backwards).
