Re: [Algorithms] Procedural generation

mmm...I don't want to pollute the list, but you may be interested by 
what we are doing (gamr7.com).
We have a lazy evaluation system but we don't generate the buildings (it 
is in alpha), we are a placement solution.

AFAIK, Introversion use the same underlying system as CityEngine. 
CityEngine has been farther tho.

I don't know about any paper that does what you want.
