Scheduling Limited Resources in Engineering Projects
Authors: Samer Ben Issaa; Yiliu (Paul) Tu
Year: 2018

Because of high customizations in the one-of-a-kind production companies (OKP companies), these companies need to find a way for reducing the production cost, shortening the production lead-time, and maintaining the quality of the productions as in the mass production system MP.s. Currently, production scheduling in OKP system follows the traditional mass production system, which focus on time and inventory, and it is inapplicable. Actually, OKP system works based on customer requirements, where each order can be representing as multi-project based. In this paper, One-of-a-kind production OKP has been referred as a project-based production and as a flexible resourceconstrained project scheduling problems (FRCPSs); because in practice, some of project activities cannot be pre-determined due to its high customizations and great uncertainties. A new model has been proposed based on these assumptions to create production schedules for OKP system, which focuses on time and resources as in project management system PM. s, and deals with the problem which have three categories of project activities A, B, and C. The per-findings indicated that the model enhances the applicability of resulting schedules, emulates what a project manager in practice does (i.e. adding or removing resources from tasks to have the project completed in time), increase the number of feasible solutions, and reduces the project duration.

Authors: Mohamad Zahierruden Ismail; Zuhaili Mohamad Ramly; M. Misnan
Year: 2024

Delivering successful rail projects has always been extremely difficult. The fact is widely discussed in developed nations as their outstanding rail networks were known to have significant cost overruns. A comprehensive rail network is progressing in developing nations, and cost overruns have already occurred in nations like China and India. The problem is critical in Malaysia, where poor cost performance has been highlighted for decades. This study aims to establish the significant influences on cost performance of rail projects, by assessing the critical influences that may affect project cost management. Primary data was gathered from 100 cost managers in the rail construction industry. Five (5) main component elements were discovered with a total of fifty (50) related items based on prior studies. Project estimation, project planning, project management, technical experience, and project complexity can be categorized as the primary component aspects. The influences and their respective items are then utilized to create the questionnaire for gathering data. Collected data were then analyzed using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA), which focused on the five (5) components and fifty (50) influences that affected rail construction cost performance. The overall variance percentage was 62.514%. Each component has a minimum of four variables, thus complying with the requisite that every component needs a minimum of three variables. The Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin (KMO) Measure of Sampling Adequacy value obtained from the results is 0.813, which is highly close to 1. All components satisfied the Factor Analysis standards as each influence loading is higher than 0.4. Project Planning has the highest Eigenvalue (26.764), while Project Estimation has the lowest Eigenvalue (5.136). Industry professionals need to understand the main elements affecting construction costs. Then the professionals can be empowered with the ability to develop effective strategies to improve cost management in rail projects.

Authors: T. Spil; K. Trimmer; C. LeRouge; C. Wiggins
Year: 2007

This minitrack focuses on the role of adoption, implementation, use and evaluation factors and the interaction of these factors at various levels for healthcare system success. Successful innovation with information technology (IT) in healthcare continues to challenge research and practice. Information Technology is seen as an enabler of change in healthcare organizations but (information) technology adoption decisions in healthcare are complex because of the uncertainty of benefits and the rate of change of technology. On a system-level, reimbursement structures, regulations, inter-organizational concerns, and the existence of standards may have an explanatory role. On an organizational level, the previous strategic choices, strategic priorities, size and location of the organization, information assurance, and many other factors may play a role. On a project level, resources, project management, etc. plays a role. Many studies also concentrate on the crucial level of the user at an individual level. It is wise to consider individual related success determinants such as relevance, attitude, requirements and resources. Yet, on this level, we need to learn more about the identification of different adoptercategories in practice and about the role that IT has for various work processes that it may simultaneously touch upon.

Year: 2024

In the contemporary discourse, carbon emissions have emerged as a focal point of global concern due to their role in inducing climate warming and precipitating ecological collapse. The establishment of a comprehensive carbon emission management system, coupled with effective measures, holds the potential to mitigate climate change, safeguard ecological integrity, improve health conditions, and promote global sustainable development. The Carbon Lifecycle AI Project Management Tool (CLA) proposed in this paper makes use of Large Language Model (LLM) and image processing model to intelligently analyze and manage the carbon emission of landscape architecture throughout its life cycle, and focuses on solving the carbon emission problem in landscape architecture. By gathering, integrating, and analyzing data related to landscape architecture, including information on material selection, plant configuration, and energy utilization, comprehensive monitoring and management of carbon emissions from landscape architecture are achieved. CLA not only offers real-time monitoring and analytical capabilities for carbon emissions but also identifies emission reduction opportunities and provides corresponding optimization recommendations, thus offering crucial support for the sustainable development of the landscape architecture industry.
Correlations between Problem Domain and Solution Domain Size Measures for Open Source Software
Authors: Tülin Erçelebİ Ayyildiz; Altan Koçyiğit
Year: 2014

Predicting how much effort will be required to complete a software project as early as possible is a very important factor in the success of software development projects. Including function points and its variants, there are several size measures and corresponding measurement methods that can be used for effort estimation. However, in most of the projects, there is limited amount of information available in the early stages and significant effort is spent for size measurement and effort estimation with such methods. This paper analyzes the correlation between the size metrics of conceptual model of the problem domain and the resulting software. For this purpose, we consider open source project management and game software. We apply linear regression and cross validation techniques to investigate the relation between the sizes of problem domain (i.e., Conceptual) and solution domain (i.e., Design) models. The results reveal a high correlation between the number of conceptual classes in the problem domain model and the number of software classes constituting the corresponding software. The results suggest that it is possible to use problem domain descriptions in the early stages of software development projects to make plausible predictions for the size of the software.

This research addresses the common issue of vulnerabilities emerging during construction projects due to inadequate risk identification and analysis. It aims to mitigate this by creating a comprehensive risk register, documenting potential risk events, their causes, and characteristics. The main goal is to identify prominent risk factors in building construction projects and develop a risk management strategy using this register. The study used purposive sampling and considered 22 indicators, including human resources, cost, materials, equipment, and environmental conditions. Questionnaires were distributed to 50 contractors in the Banda Aceh region. Validity and reliability were confirmed through statistical analysis. The analysis showed that human resources were the most prevalent risk factor. Using a probability impact matrix, five indicators had medium-risk levels, while seventeen indicated low risk. Human resources, materials and equipment, and environmental conditions were identified as dominant risk factors, all at a medium-risk level. The study underscores the importance of addressing human resources risks through a structured risk register, which can significantly improve project management and execution. By systematically assessing and mitigating potential risks, project stakeholders can make informed decisions and enhance project outcomes in terms of timelines, costs, and quality. In conclusion, this research highlights the critical role of risk management in construction projects and emphasizes the value of a comprehensive risk register. Addressing dominant risks proactively can positively impact building construction projects.

Authors: Haiqin Wang; Hui Gan; Qin Zhou; Li Dai
Year: 2024

ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: The epilepsy monitoring unit (EMU) is an independent unit for video electroencephalogram monitoring of epilepsy patients, with the aim of capturing typical seizure events. Because of the uncontrolled seizure frequency, there may be safety risks for patients, such as falling, trauma, aspiration, status epilepticus, and sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. This study aims to evaluate the application effect of comprehensive safety projects on safety management in a pediatric EMU. METHODS: From June 2022 to May 2024, a preevaluation and postevaluation study was conducted at the EMU of a tertiary grade A children's specialized hospital in China. The intervention group carried out a unit-based comprehensive safety project, including nurse safety culture training, establishing a normalized mechanism for safety improvement, and developing evidence-based safety prevention strategies. RESULTS: The response time of paroxysmal events in the intervention group was shorter than that in the control group (P < .05). The scores of implementation of safety precautions and emergency measures in the intervention group were higher than those in the control group (P < .05). The nursing-related complications in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group (P < .05). CONCLUSION: The comprehensive unit-based safety project management mode can effectively improve the quality of EMU nursing care for children and reduce nursing-related complications.

Authors: N. Lockett; David H. Brown; A. Sissons
Year: 2006

This paper reports on some of the outcomes from a two-year Knowledge Transfer Programme (KTP) which included the development of an implementation process for the installation of customer relationship management (CRM) applications in small to medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the UK mail order sector. Soft systems methodology (SSM) was used to help appreciate the organizational structures and processes of an independent software vendor (ISV) and to facilitate the development of a structured and formalized implementation process. Importantly this action research based project considered whether any elements of SSM could be incorporated into a new implementation process. The paper starts by introducing SSM and its relevance to managing organizational change before detailing the KTP Associate's experiences of using SSM to appreciate the situation of the ISV and developing a structured and formalized implementation process. The selection of appropriate elements of SSM for inclusion in the implementation process is discussed in the context of an initial CRM installation. The implementation methodology was subsequently modified and used for a second CRM installation before being adopted by the ISV.
ArcTrees: Visualizing Relations in Hierarchical Data
Authors: Petra Neumann; Stefan Schlechtweg; Sheelagh Carpendale
Year: 2005

In this paper we present, ARCTREES, a novel way of visualizing hierarchical and non-hierarchical relations within one interactive visualization. Such a visualization is challenging because it must display hierarchical information in a way that the user can keep his or her mental map of the data set and include relational information without causing misinterpretation. We propose a hierarchical view derived from traditional Treemaps and augment this view with an arc diagram to depict relations. In addition, we present interaction methods that allow the exploration of the data set using Focus+Context techniques for navigation. The development was motivated by a need for understanding relations in structured documents but it is also useful in many other application domains such as project management and calendars.
Managers hate uncertainty: good and bad experiences with adaptive project management (invited talk)
Authors: Han Schaminée
Year: 2021

There is intrinsic uncertainty in product development. Uncertainty is often confused with risk, where unknowns can be identified in advance. Traditional predictive project management methods are based on risk management and it will be explained why these methods often are less effective in domains with higher uncertainty. Adaptive methods seem to be more effective, as they better deal with that uncertainty. Examples will be given where adaptive methods have led to higher predictability. But many managers still often believe predictive methods lead to higher predictability. We will formulate some hypotheses on why managers still prefer predictive methods, based on own experience and initial research. Further research is required to validate these hypotheses.
Integrated value–based project management in the Malaysian construction industry
Authors: Mohd Hilmi Malek; C. M. Mat Isa
Year: 2024

Value Management (VM) is a structured approach to maximising a project’s value by analysing its functions, materials, and costs to meet objectives at the lowest cost without compromising quality, performance, or functionality. In Malaysia’s construction industry, VM has significantly enhanced project outcomes. However, VM faces challenges despite its benefits due to limited awareness, knowledge barriers, and a gap between theory and practice. Although many practitioners recognise VM’s advantages, there remains a need for a deeper understanding of the VM process and how to apply necessary project management (PM) activities for project success. This study addresses the gap in understanding how PM activities can be integrated with VM to enhance project performance in the Malaysian construction industry. PM involves planning, organising, and controlling resources to achieve specific goals within set constraints, using knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to successfully execute projects and deliver desired outcomes. The study employed a qualitative method, including interviews with eleven professionals and practitioners in Malaysia’s construction industry, to identify PM activities that can be incorporated into the VM process. Thematic analysis using Atlas.ti revealed that PM and VM share similar objectives in ensuring project performance. The study illustrates the benefits of incorporating PM operations into VM by highlighting the relationships between PM and VM, such as better collaboration, better resource management, and improved project outcomes. By providing practitioners with a framework to apply PM techniques within the VM process, our findings contribute to the innovation of VM concepts, enhancing project performance, and bridging the theory-practice gap in the Malaysian construction sector.

The object of the research in the paper is intellectual property as one of the key resources of startup projects. The research is aimed at providing the understanding of intellectual property role in ensuring the efficiency of startup projects management and overcoming its undervaluing. Current conditions of Ukrainian enterprises functioning demand the search of effective tools for forming competitive advantages and ensuring the recovery of economy, that emphasizes the necessity of innovation activity activation. The study focused on startup projects as one of the forms of activation of innovation activity. The author proposed the definition of a startup as a temporary structure (organized in the form of a business entity and/or project), which has innovative characteristics of the business model, generates an innovative product and is aimed at significant growth and scaling. Startup projects have their peculiarities which influence the respective management system. On the basis of the conducted research the directions of startup projects management were identified, one of which is the management of startup project resources. Intellectual property, in its turn, is one of the key resources of startup projects considering the innovative nature of their business models. Efficient management of the intellectual property objects is capable of forming significant advantages for the startup project, which will result in its performance indicators. The main directions of intellectual property management in startup projects include development of intellectual property, market analysis, protection of intellectual property rights, commercialization of intellectual property rights. Ensuring the efficiency of the intellectual property management provides for the observance of relevant principles, the main of which include the principles of systematicity, reasonableness, efficiency, alternativeness, ensuring development, adaptability, social responsibility. The obtained research results will contribute to increasing the awareness of startup founders regarding the role and peculiarities of management of intellectual property.
Queueing-Theory-Based Models for Software Reliability Analysis and Management
Authors: Chin-Yu Huang; T. Kuo
Year: 2017

Software reliability is one of the most important internal attributes of software systems. Over the past three decades, many software reliability growth models have been proposed and discussed. Some research has also shown that the fault detection and removal processes of software can be described and modeled using an infinite-server queueing system. But, there is practically no company that can afford unlimited resources to test and correct detected faults in the real world. Consequently, the number of debuggers should be limited, not infinite. In this paper, we propose an extended finite-server-queueing (EFSQ) model to analyze the fault removal process of the software system. Numerical examples based on real project data are illustrated. Evaluation results show that our proposed EFSQ model has a fairly accurate prediction capability of software reliability and also depict the real-life situation of software development activities more faithfully. Finally, the applications of our proposed model to project management are also presented. Our proposed model can provide a theoretically effective technique for managing the necessary activities of testing and debugging in software project management.
