  2. 11. Collaborative production planning with BIM – Design, development and evaluation of a Virtual Production Planning system

    Author : Mikael Viklund Tallgren; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Construction Informatics; BIM; Construction IT; Scheduling; Collaborative Production Planning;

    Abstract : Construction projects have for a long time been characterized by increased specialization, low productivity, and a fragmented information exchange culture, resulting in inefficient work processes, with time delays and budget overruns. Research within the context of construction planning and scheduling and IT points to improving communication, collaboration, and cooperation to address these problems. READ MORE

  4. 12. Understanding Test-Artifact Quality in Software Engineering

    Author : Huynh Khanh Vi Tran; Nauman bin Ali; Jürgen Börstler; Michael Unterkalmsteiner; Blekinge Tekniska Högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Software testing; Test case quality; Test suite quality; Test artifact quality; Quality assurance; Programvaruteknik; Software Engineering;

    Abstract : Context: The core of software testing is test artifacts, i.e., test cases, test suites, test scripts, test code, test specifications, and natural language tests. Hence, the quality of test artifacts can negatively or positively impact the reliability of the software testing process. READ MORE

  5. 13. Product quality through experience feedback in industrialised housing

    Author : John Meiling; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Abstract : This thesis is based on four appended papers and an introductory section. The work has been conducted with a focus on product quality and feedback. Hypothetically, industrialised housing gives better product quality and improved control in production. READ MORE

  6. 14. Expanding the use of contract inspections in construction : An approach to inter-project knowledge diffusion?

    Author : Robert Lundkvist; Kajsa Simu; Luleå tekniska universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Construction Engineering and Management; Byggproduktion;

    Abstract : This licentiate thesis presents a taxonomic approach to classification of defect information in construction projects. A conceptual model, based in a frame of reference consisting of the concepts of Continuous Improvement, Performance Measurement, Knowledge Management, as well as the current Quality Management regime of the industry helps to understand how the use of Contract Inspections can be developed towards facilitating inter-project knowledge diffusion and continuous improvement in construction.

  7. 15. Predictability By Construction : Working the Architecture/Program Seam

    Author : Kurt C. Wallnau; Ivica Crnkovic; Magnus Larsson; Hans Hansson; Clemens Szyperski; Mälardalens högskola; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; software engineering; software architecture; software components; quality attributes; Software engineering; Programvaruteknik; Computer Science; datavetenskap;

    Abstract : Contemporary software engineering practice overemphasizes the distinction of software design from software implementation, and designer (“software architect”) from implementor (“computer programmer”). In this contemporary meme, software architects are concerned with large-grained system structures, quality attributes that arise from these structures (security, availability, performance, etc. READ MORE
