Article is devoted to the comparative analysis of automated systems of new technical decisions’ search process support (CAI-systems) in various branches of a science and technics. The structure of systems of the automated designing is considered and their association with CAI-systems is proved. The basic methodological approaches used at of CAI-systems’ creation and their features are considered. Examples of described approaches’ realization in concrete software products (both domestic and foreign), their functionality, advantages and disadvantages are given. Attention is focused on exclusive importance of realization of the most labor-consuming and difficultly programmed stage – conceptual designing. Systems realizing given stage (on example of САПФИТ, Интеллект and Эффекты 200) considered in details. Key features of these systems, format of the input and output data are described. Comparison of knowledge bases and mathematical apparatuses of conceptual designing’s support systems is given. In the conclusion general requirements to functionality of similar systems are formulated and divided into categories. Categories include possibilities of similar systems on work with the knowledge base, to synthesis of new technical decisions, calculation of operational characteristics of the technical decision and ranging of results on set of operational characteristics, and as dynamic visualization of a physical principle of action.
