  1. 1. A Lifecycle Approach towards Building Information Management : Technical and procedural implications for the facility management and operations sector

    Author : Pouriya Parsanezhad; Väino Tarandi; Stefan Olander; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Building Information Modelling; facilities management; facility management and operation; interoperability; building information management; BIM repository; workflow process; BIM; FM O;

    Abstract : A well-structured and coordinated information management practice is central to promoting efficiency in construction. Building information management encompasses authoring, interpretation, communication, coordination and storage of building information. READ MORE

  2. 2. On Applying Ontologies in Workflows : Ontology driven Workflows for increasing Flexibility and Quality and reducing Production Time and Cost

    Author : Gunnar Mosnik; Per Flensburg; Basim Al-Najjar; Christian Stary; Linnéuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Ontology; workflow; workflow management system; effects on workflow; improvement of communication in workflows; network society; Industrial engineering and economy; Industriell teknik och ekonomi; Terotechnology; Systemekonomi;

    Abstract : The trend in business goes to higher flexibility of companies due to the manifold wishes of the customer, which challenges information systems. A consequence is the mass customisation, the effort to produce different variants of one product to meet the multifaceted needs of as many customers as possible. READ MORE

  3. 3. Modelling and simulation of factors influencing on-site construction of concrete frameworks : Studying the effects of resource allocation, weather conditions, and climate-improved concrete

    Author : Robert Larsson; Avdelningen för Konstruktionsteknik; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Discrete-event simulation DES ; Concrete; Structural frames; Productivity; Resource use; Weather; Carbon Emissions;

    Abstract : Concrete is the most common material used to build the structural framework in multistory buildings. However, the construction works carried out on the building site are affected by many different factors that may reduce productivity. READ MORE

  4. 4. On the use of Visual planning in teams -Exploring sticky notes in product development

    Author : Björn Söderberg; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; project; product development; teams; cross-functional; Visual planning;

    Abstract : This thesis investigates Visual planning, a method used in teams for planning and controlling product development projects. Cross-functional teams have shown to be effective at accelerating product development, but also make it difficult to coordinate the work and puts high demands on communication and knowledge exchange.
