dc.description.abstract	An highly effective algorithm is presented to solve open space facilities layout planning problems involving modules with constant aspect ratios. This algorithmm is a novel combination of steepest descent and corner search. Layout solutions produced by the proposed algorithm for well-known test problems were found superior to the published layouts as well as the best layouts produced by commercial layout design software VIPPLANOPT.	en_CA
