Such an approach must incorporate adequate services that can facilitate reintegration of concurrently modified data at reasonably selected coordination points. In this paper we present a set of methods which, used in combination, can achieve that goal. After a description of the principal envisaged cooperative work scenario each of these methods is discussed in detail and current observations drawn from their software realisation are given. Whilst the suggested approach is valid for any EXPRESS-based data model, the practical focus of work has been on facilitating IFC-driven integration.}, subject = {Produktmodell}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WasserfuhrScherer1997, author = {Wasserfuhr, R. and Scherer, Raimar J.}, title = {Information Management in the Concurrent Design Process}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.445}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-4456}, year = {1997}, abstract = {Former achievements for integrated information management have concentrated on interoperability of applications like e.g. CAD, structural analysis or facility management, based on product models introducing additional application independent model layers (core models). In the last years it has become clear, that besides interoperability of autonomous applications, the concurrent processes of model instantiation and evolution have to be modeled, including the relationship to available project resources, persons, legal requirements and communication infrastructure. This paper discusses some basic concepts for an emerging methodology relating the fields of product modeling, project management and workflow systems by elaborating the concept of a process model, which gives a decomposition of the project goals into executable activities. Integrated information management systems should be related to process models to detect pending activities, deadlocks and alternatives of execution. According to the heterogeneous nature of project communication processes, a method for dynamic classification of ad-hoc activities is suggested, that complements predefined highlevel process definitions. In a brief outline of the system architecture, we show how sophisticated information management systems can be broadly made available by using conventional Internet technologies.}, subject = {Informationsmanagement}, language = {en} } @article{VogelBreitMaerki2004, author = {Vogel, Manfred and Breit, Manfred and M{\"a}rki, Fabian}, title = {Optimization of 4D Process Planning using Genetic Algorithms}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.236}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-2360}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The presented work focuses on the presentation of a discrete event simulator which can be used for automated sequencing and optimization of building processes.

Current design and construction tools offer limited support for detecting these construction-specific design conditions. This paper describes the ontology we developed using the manufacturing concept of features to represent the design conditions that are important for construction. The feature ontology provides the blueprint for the additions and changes needed to transform a standard product model into a constructionspecific product model. The ontology formalizes three classes of features, defines the attributes and functions of each feature type, and represents the relationships between features explicitly. The descriptive semantics of the ontology allows practitioners to represent their varied preferences for naming features, specifying features that result from component intersections and the similarity of components, and grouping features that affect a specific construction domain. A software prototype that implements the ontology enables practitioners to transform designer-focused product models into feature-based product models that represent the construction perspective.}, subject = {Produktmodell}, language = {en} } @article{ShihLee2004, author = {Shih, Naai-Jung and Lee, Wen-Pang}, title = {Particle Simulation and Evaluation of Personal Exposure to Contaminant Sources in an Elevation Space}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.237}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-2376}, year = {2004}, abstract = {An elevator, which figures a small volume, is normally used by everyone for a short period of time and equipped with simple ventilation system..Any contaminant released within it may cause serious problem.

The approach enables to interrelate formally the product and visual information models with each other by defining mapping rules, to specify a prototyping scenario as a composition of map instances, and then to explore particular product models in virtual reality environments by interpreting the composed scenario. Having been realized, the proposed approach provides for the strongly formalized method and the common software framework to build virtual prototyping applications.
