The first system facilitates collaborative structural design processes, the second one supports fire engineering in buildings. Both approaches are part of two different research projects that belong to the DFG1 priority program 1103 entitled "Network-based Co-operative Planning Processes in Structural Engineering" (DFG 2000). The two approaches provide similar database wrapper agents to integrate relevant design information into two multi-agent systems: Database wrapper agents make the relevant product model data usable for further agents in the multi-agent system, independent on their physical location. Thus, database wrapper agents act as an interface between multi-agent system and heterogeneous database systems. The communication between the database wrapper agents and other requesting agents presumes a common vocabulary: a specific database ontology that maps database related message contents into database objects. Hereby, the software-wrapping technology enables the various design experts to plug in existing database systems and data resources into a specific multi-agent system easily. As a consequence, dynamic changes in the design information of large collaborative engineering projects are adequately supported. The flexible architecture of the database wrapper agent concept is demonstrated by the integration of an XML and a relational database system.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{RueppelMeissnerGreb2004, author = {Rueppel, Uwe and Meißner, Udo F. and Greb, Steffen}, title = {A Petri Net based Method for Distributed Process Modelling in Structural Engineering}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.133}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1338}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The contribution introduces a method for the distributed process modelling in order to support the process orientation in Structural Engineering, i.e., the modelling, analysis and management of planning processes. The approach is based on the Petri Net theory for the modelling of planning processes and workflows in Structural Engineering. Firstly, a central and coarse process model serves as a pre-structuring system for the detailed modelling of the technical planning activities. Secondly, the involved planning participants generate distributed process models with detailed technical workflow information. Finally, these distributed process models will be combined in the central workflow net. The final net is of great importance for the process orientation in Structural Engineering, i.e., the identification, publication, analysis, optimization and finally the management of planning processes.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{KatzenbachMeissnerRueppel2004, author = {Katzenbach, Rolf and Meißner, Udo F. and Rueppel, Uwe}, title = {Abstraction of Process Relevant Information from Geotechnical Standards and Regulations}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.95}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111028-1002}, year = {2004}, abstract = {The paper presents the abstraction of process relevant information in order to enable the workflow management based on semantic data. It is shown for three examples, how the standards define the information needed to perform a certain planning activity. Abstraction of process relevant information is discussed for different granularities of the underlying processmodel.

Vor diesem Hintergrund zeigt der Beitrag aktuelle Forschungsinhalte der Bauinformatik auf, die insbesondere im Rahmen des DFG-Schwerpunktprogramms 1103 'Vernetzt-kooperative Planungsprozesse im Konstruktiven Ingenieurbau' von verschiedenen Projekten arbeitsteilig entwickelt werden.
