David Rutten

A graduate in architecture and urbanism from TU Delft, David Rutten works with software company Robert McNeel & Associates (RMN). The developer of Grasshopper®, he was recently awarded the ACADIA 2012 award for innovative research. The Galapagos plug-in, which Rutten has developed for Grasshopper®, implements two generic solvers (one using a genetic algorithm and one using a simulated annealing algorithm). A generic solver will find a solution to a problem that can be expressed in a mathematical way; however, as he explains here, while these solutions may not be exact, they will be very good.

... It highlights the effective integration of GA for improving the accuracy of emotion evaluation in diverse environments [49]. Rutten applied GAs to architectural design, optimizing thermal, lighting, and energy conditions and achieving energy consumption reductions of 20-30% [50]. Similarly, Gonzalez combined simulation methods with optimization algorithms to enhance lighting conditions in office buildings, reporting improvements in comfort indices by 35% [51]. ...
