An analyst represents a project manager, planner or any other person, involved in the planning process. Today, planning processes are managed by several geographically distributed planners and project managers. Thus, complexity of such a process rises even more. Prediction of consequences of many planning decisions is not possible, in particular since assessment of a planning advance is not trivial. There have to be considered several viewpoints, that depend on individual perceptions. In the following, methods are presented to realize planning decision support.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Luetzkendorf2000, author = {L{\"u}tzkendorf, Thomas}, title = {Beitr{\"a}ge zur Umsetzung von Prinzipien einer Nachhaltigen Entwicklung im Baubereich}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.49}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20040225-516}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, year = {2000}, abstract = {Die nach dem kumulativen Verfahren verfasste Habilitationsschrift fasst in 3 Kapiteln wissenschaftliche Beitr{\"a}ge des Autors aus den Jahren 1995 - 1999 zusammen.

Close cooperation of engineers in different fields is the basis of high product quality, short development periods and a minimum of investment costs. For each building the engineers have to create a new fire engineering model. The consistent realization of the fire engineering model in all details has high demands on communication, collaboration and building models. Thereby, to preserve the related design models consistent to each other and compatible with the rules of fire engineering is a complex task. In addition, regulations and guidelines vary according to the building location, so the knowledge base must be integrated dynamically into the planning process. This contribution covers the integration of engineers and design models into a cooperation network on the basis of mobile agents. The distributed models of architectural design, structural planning and fire engineering are supported. These models are implemented as XML-based models which can be accessed by mobile agents for information retrieval and for processing tasks. Agents are provided to all planners, they are enabled to check up the distributed design models with the knowledge base of the fire protection regulations,. With the use of such an agent each planner is supported to check up his planning for accordance with the fire protection requirements. The fire-engineering-agent analyzes the design and detects inconsistencies by processing fire protection requirements and design model facts in a rule-based expert system. The possibility to check the planning information at an early state in the sense of compatibility to the fire protection regulations enables a comprehensive diagnosis of the design and the reduction of planning errors.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{MilesJoitaBurnap2004, author = {Miles, John and Joita, Liviu and Burnap, Peter}, title = {Collaborative Engineering: Virtual Teams in a Grid Environment Supporting Consortia in the Construction Industry}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.136}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20111215-1362}, year = {2004}, abstract = {In the AEC (Architecture / Engineering / Construction) industry a number of individuals and organisations collaborate and work jointly on a construction project.

The application described there has a standalone component for executing the finite element method on a local workstation in the absence of network access. This application is comparable to current, local workstation based finite element packages. However, it differs fundamentally from standard packages since the application itself, and its objects, are adapted to support distributed execution of the analysis task. Basic aspects of an object-oriented framework for the development of applications which can be used in similar distributed collaboratories are described in this paper. An important feature of this framework is its application-centred design. This means that an application can contain any number of engineering models, where the models are formed by the collection of objects according to semantic views within the application. This is achieved through very flexible classes Application and Model, which are described in detail. The advantages of the application-centred design approach is demonstrated with reference to the design of steel structures, where the finite element analysis model, member design model and connection design model interact to provide the required functionality.}, subject = {Ingenieurbau}, language = {en} } @phdthesis{Richter2009, author = {Richter, Torsten}, title = {Konzepte f{\"u}r den Einsatz versionierter Objektmodelle im Bauwesen}, doi = {10.25643/bauhaus-universitaet.1413}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:gbv:wim2-20100115-14935}, school = {Bauhaus-Universit{\"a}t Weimar}, year = {2009}, abstract = {Bauwerke sind in der Regel Unikate, f{\"u}r die meist eine komplette und aufw{\"a}ndige Neuplanung durchzuf{\"u}hren ist.

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.
