Full textAbstract:
Purpose Organizations involved in facility management (FM) can use building information modeling (BIM) as a knowledge repository to document evolving facility information and to support decisions made by the facility managers during the operational life of a facility. Despite ongoing advances in FM technologies, FM practices in most facilities are still labor intensive, time consuming and often rely on unreliable and outdated information. To address these shortcomings, the purpose of this study is to propose an automated approach that demonstrates the potential of using BIM to develop algorithms that automate decision-making for FM applications. Design/methodology/approach A BIM plug-in tool is developed that uses a fault detection and diagnostics (FDD) algorithm to automate the process of detecting malfunctioning heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) equipment. The algorithm connects to a complaint ticket database and automates BIM to determine potentially damaged HVAC system components and develops a plan of action for the facility inspectors accordingly. The approach has been implemented as a case study in an operating facility to improve the process of HVAC system diagnosis and repair. Findings By implementing the proposed application in a case study, the authors found that automated BIM approaches such as the one developed in this study, can be highly beneficial in FM practices by increasing productivity and lowering costs associated with decision-making. Originality/value This study introduces an innovative approach that leverages BIM for automated fault detection in operational buildings. FM personnel in charge of HVAC inspection and repair can highly benefit from the proposed approach, as it eliminates the time required to locate HVAC equipment at fault manually.

Full textAbstract:
Due to the growing complexity of mechanical, electrical, and plumbing (MEP) designs and the rules that govern them, performing rule checks manually has become expensive. However, MEP-based rule checking has not received adequate attention compared to automated rule checking in other domains. Based on Knowledge Management and Building Information Modeling (BIM), an automated rule checking system integrated knowledge base management system (KBMS) for model information expansion, information extraction, system integrity checking, and element spacing checking was developed. MEP rules for automated rule checking were collected, optimized, and stored in the MEP knowledge base. The KBMS facilitates the management of MEP rules in the knowledge base. A Revit plug-in of MEP rule checking system was developed including functions of KBMS, Model Integrity Checking, Elements Space Checking, and Locating the non-compliant element in model view. This study integrated both KBMS and BIM technologies to achieve automated rule checking for MEP. This simplifies the process of rule checking of MEP systems in an automated manner.

Full textAbstract:
Even for the most well-intentioned companies, the commitment required for the initial drafting of a plan is a real barrier to developing a useful schedule for a construction project. This paper explores how artificial intelligence and expert systems have and can be used for automating the generation of plans and schedules. Findings from a thorough literature review and observations about the general characteristics of projects provide a backdrop to explain the reasoning that has led to the authors' approach to developing a module capable of generating draft plans and schedules. This approach combines expert systems with large building blocks of predefined project scoping, sequencing, and scaling knowledge contained in standard templates and rules. It relies on templates to store much of the reasoning needed to produce a project plan and schedule, and on the use of generalized planning structures as activities. A draft schedule can then be automatically generated by way of a relatively simple rule set that assigns activity property values dealing with physical locations and production rates, as well as other project scale related values. The role of a physical model or view of a project is emphasised.Key words: construction, scheduling, project management, expert system, template, automated schedule generation, rule based, computer integration.

Full textAbstract:
Bridge component inspection and repair information has been traditionally collected on paper forms by field personnel and stored in project files. Because of the industrywide use of computer-aided design and drafting technology in bridge rehabilitation design, digital information for bridge components is often available as a by-product of the design process. In addition, projects are becoming more sophisticated and, as a result, the construction field office is becoming more automated. It is now possible to automate field data collection and management procedures so that information can be captured in a digital format in the field and used throughout the construction documentation process. The available technology includes pen-based computers, pen-enabled database software, and digital color cameras, all of which can be integrated into systems that are easily used by field inspection personnel. By using databases and geographic information systems, inspectors and engineers can readily review component information and track the progress of repairs for large-scale rehabilitation projects.

Purpose Current processes to manage changes are subject to failure since they are heavily dependent on human discipline. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate and quantify the difference between levels of automation of change management processes and to provide input for determining the use of automation systems for change management. Design/methodology/approach Three generations of change management processes are defined to represent progressive practices used in major capital projects over the past few decades. Discrete event simulation was used to model these processes to capture their behavior and compare their performance according to time and compliance metrics. An oil and gas megaproject served to validate the findings of this modeling and analysis. Findings The results showed that automated processes can bring more compliance and real-time traceability, but not a significant time reduction in the change process. This contributes to the understanding of the impact of workflow-based automation on construction process performance. The validity of the conclusions are limited by the breadth of sectors studied and the inability to capture off-line time allocations of the personnel involved. Future research may build on the work presented here by studying additional processes such as requests for information, project change notices, requests for scaffolding, and interface management in various industry sectors. Originality/value A new approach for modeling and evaluating construction management process automation is contributed and the specific results of the paper indicate that automated workflow-based change management processes should be implemented in megaprojects.

Near real-time tracking of construction operations and timely progress reporting are essential for effective management of construction projects. This does not only mitigate potential negative impact of schedule delays and cost overruns but also helps to improve safety on site. Such timely tracking circumvents the drawbacks of conventional methods for data acquisition, which are manual, labor-intensive, and not reliable enough for various construction purposes. To address these issues, a wide range of automated site data acquisition, including remote sensing (RS) technologies, has been introduced. This review article describes the capabilities and limitations of various scenarios employing RS enabling technologies for localization, with a focus on multi-sensor data fusion models. In particular, we have considered integration of real-time location systems (RTLSs) including GPS and UWB with other sensing technologies such as RFID, WSN, and digital imaging for their use in construction. This integrated use of technologies, along with information models (e.g., BIM models) is expected to enhance the efficiency of automated site data acquisition. It is also hoped that this review will prompt researchers to investigate fusion-based data capturing and processing.

Purpose – Worker activity identification and classification is the most crucial and difficult stage in work sampling studies. Manual methods of recording are tedious and prone to error and, hence automating the task of observing and classifying worker activities is an important step towards improving the current practice. Very recently, accelerometer-based systems have been explored to automate activity recognition in construction, but it had been carried out in controlled environment. The purpose of this paper is to cover the evaluation of the system in field situations. Design/methodology/approach – Experimental investigation was carried out on crews of iron workers and carpenters with accelerometer data loggers worn at selected locations on the human body. The accelerometer data collection was spread over a time period of two weeks, and video recording of the worker activities was concurrently carried out to serve as ground truth, the reference used for comparison. The activity recognition analysis was carried out on accelerometer data features using a decision tree algorithm. Findings – It was found that the classification using the individual training scheme performed better when compared with the collective training scheme for both the trades. The field studies results showed that the classification accuracies for iron work and carpentry are 90.07 and 77.74 per cent, respectively, using decision tree classifier. It was found that similarities of movements were a major cause for lower accuracy of recognition. Research limitations/implications – The work being preliminary in nature has used the basic classifier and pre-processing methods and, standard settings of algorithms. Originality/value – The paper has investigated accelerometer-based method for construction labour activity classification in field situations.

We report on the First Workshop on Bias in Automatic Knowledge Graph Construction (KG-BIAS), which was co-located with the Automated Knowledge Base Construction (AKBC) 2020 conference. Identifying and possibly remediating any sort of bias in knowledge graphs, or in the methods used to construct or query them, has clear implications for downstream systems accessing and using the information in such graphs. However, this topic remains relatively unstudied, so our main aim for organizing this workshop was to bring together a group of people from a variety of backgrounds with an interest in the topic, in order to arrive at a shared definition and roadmap for the future. Through a program that included two keynotes, an invited paper, three peer-reviewed full papers, and a plenary discussion, we have made initial inroads towards a common understanding and shared research agenda for this timely and important topic.

Full textAbstract:
The digital transformation has paved the path for new services and efficient management across the value chain of the whole energy sector. For applications behind the meter, buildings stand out as a major contributor to energy consumption and corresponding emissions. Therefore, Building Automation Control Systems (BACS) have been proposed in order to mitigate building performance issues. Finding optimal and automated methods to handle different control points of BACS is very important. In the initial design and commissioning phases, HVAC systems need to be tested exhaustively to guarantee proper function and expected operation compliance. However, the availability of automated step response test tools applied in the building sector is still scarce, forcing engineers around the globe to manually test different scenarios over the same buildings multiple times. This is a tedious and error-prone approach that lacks precision and good resource allocation. Therefore, we propose AUSTRET: a parallel automated multiple processing software for step response testing in buildings. The tool aims to automate the laborious step response tests of BACS cost-effectively. The input parameters can be provided for several control zones and on different control systems. The multi-processing capability allows the step response execution to run in parallel saving time and resources from the operators. The implementation of AUSTRET is first tested in a living lab environment in a university office building and then demonstrated on full-scale in a commercial building setting. The results show how the parallel processing capability of AUSTRET enhances the productivity and efficiency of step response tests in a building and how the different configuration parameters can affect the overall performance of the tests. The preliminary results indicate how automated tools, such as AUSTRET, can improve the automation and effectiveness of step response tests in the design phase or during retro-commissioning building processes.

Selecting a suitable project manager for construction projects is one of the most important decisions made by construction firms. In the traditional approach, interviews are conducted by senior managers of the company, who consider the project requirements and the candidates’ capabilities. However, interviewing candidates is usually time consuming and there is the risk of impaired judgment, leading to human error. Decision-making support systems are therefore very useful. In previous work, the authors proposed a fuzzy system to address the issues described above (Rashidi et al. 2011). In this paper, a simpler robust model is presented. The advantages of this new model lie in its simplicity and the fact that it is not necessary to consider many criteria in the selection procedure when using this model. This model only requires 15 fields of candidate information. In the development of this model, the first step is construction of an initial fuzzy model based on all the criteria that may be considered when selecting a project manager. The significance of the coefficients of the criteria are then determined. In the next step, the model is optimized by changing the number of fuzzy rules and reducing the number of criteria. Finally, the most appropriate model is chosen on the basis of the least number of criteria required to obtain accurate results. To show the model's capability, it is used in real interviews. The obtained results indicate the high accuracy of the model in predicting the output, that is, the best candidate in the interviews.

The article is devoted to automated instrument stabilization systems. The authors systematized and presented the classification of modern stabilizers. High-precision automated instrument stabilization systems are used in light armoured vehicles, performing the functions of search acceleration, determining the coordinates of moving objects in extreme conditions; observation of ground, air and surface targets. Also promising is the use of automated instrumentation stabilization systems in aviation gravimetry for the exhibition of the axes of sensitivity of navigation sensing elements (gravimeters). A characteristic feature of the development of modern technology is the improvement of technical characteristics of all instrumentation systems that are part of the product management system, including stabilizers. This process is due to the transition to a digital element base, the use of new information sensors, new optoelectronic surveillance devices and the development of new circuit design solutions, which, in turn, increases the speed of equipment and its manoeuvrability due to greater automation. The article reveals the principle of classification of stabilizers: by object of stabilization, by number of stabilization planes, by type of measured coordinate, by gyroscope function, by type of actuator, by type of regulation, by type of circuit design. The functioning of the digital instrumental system for measuring mechanical parameters and stabilization by means of functional and structural diagrams of the channel of the automated instrumental stabilization complex is shown. The above is a new, more detailed classification of automated instrumentation stabilization systems, which systematizes the principles of construction of modern stabilizers.

Full textAbstract:
The analysis of the accumulated long-term experience in the construction and operation of high-rise buildings reveals not only the engineering specificity of such projects, but also systemic problems in the field of project management. Most of the project decisions are made by the developer and the investor in the early stages of the life cycle - from the acquisition of the site to the start of operation, so most of the participants in the construction and operation of the high-rise building are far from the strategic life-cycle management of the project. The solution of these tasks due to the informatization of management has largely exhausted its efficiency resource. This is due to the fact that the applied IT-systems automated traditional "inherited" processes and management structures, and, in addition, they were focused on informatization of the activities of the construction company, rather than the construction project. Therefore, in the development of high-rise buildings, the tasks of researching approaches and methods for managing the full life cycle of projects that will improve their competitiveness become topical. For this purpose, the article substantiates the most promising approaches and methods of informational modeling of high-rise construction as a basis for managing the full life cycle of this project. Reengineering of information interaction schemes for project participants is considered; formation of a unified digital environment for the life cycle of the project; the development of systems for integrating data management and project management.

Purpose Steel and reinforced concrete are among the most common structural materials used in the construction industry. Cost and the speed of construction have been usually the main criteria when selecting a building’s structural system, whereby the environmental impact of the structural material is sometimes ignored. Availability of an easy-to-use tool for environmental assessment of the structural alternatives could encourage this evaluation in the decision making. The purpose of this paper is to introduce an automated tool for the environmental assessment of the on-site construction processes of a building structural system, which calculates the energy consumption and carbon emissions of the structural system as a parameter for comparison. Design/methodology/approach This assessment tool is implemented using a building information modeling (BIM) platform to extract structural elements and their key attributes, such as type, geometrical and locational data. These data are processed together with a productivity database to calculate machine hours, and then predefined energy and carbon inventories are used to assess the energy consumption of the structural system in the erection/installation stage. Findings This assessment tool provides an automated and easy-to-use approach to estimate energy consumption and carbon emissions of different structural systems that are modeled in a BIM platform. The results of this tool were within the ranges reported by the available studies. Originality/value This research project presents a novel approach to use BIM-based attributes of the structural elements to calculate the required efforts, i.e. machine hours, and assess their energy consumption and carbon emissions during construction processes.

Full textAbstract:
A breakthrough in peritoneal dialysis (PD) therapy occurred in 1977 with the development of continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). Its simplicity, low cost, and ease with which CAPD could be performed on patients at home contributed to the popularity of this procedure. However, there is a need for continuous improvement in building optimal systems for incident chronic kidney disease (CKD) patients. This research showed the design and construction of a simplified prototype of low-cost automated peritoneal dialysis (APD) equipment that meets international standards to automatically regulate infusion and fluid drainage in and out of a patient with low margins of error. Experimental tests allowed the adjustment of the RPM values concerning the flow rate provided. In addition, thanks to the pressure sensor, it was possible to observe a fluctuation ranging from 9 to 13 kPa, which is within the permissible average specified in the catalogs of medical instruments and equipment. Furthermore, a turbidity sensor was added to decrease the possibility of presenting peritonitis. The results showed absolute values of flow, angular velocity, and pressure that it could deliver for use in APD therapies. Finally, the construction of the APD equipment is presented generally, showing the electronic and mechanical components that constitute it.

This paper reports a feasibility study which addressed the development of a new, advanced system mainly devoted to automatic real‐time health and safety management on construction sites. The preliminary analyses and experiments described in this paper concern two of the most important functionalities which must be included in the system's final release. The first functionality consists in real‐time position‐tracking of workers involved on construction sites and the second ‐ in a software tool for the prevention of non‐authorized access to dangerous zones. This research step is part of a vaster, ongoing research project, addressing the development of a new generation of advanced construction management systems which allow real‐time monitoring and coordination of tasks, automatic health and safety management, on‐site delivery of technical information and the capture of “as‐built” documentation. This paper focuses mainly on the development of a reliable methodology for real‐time monitoring of the position of both workers and equipment in outdoor construction sites by applying Ultra Wide Band (UWB) based technologies. This positioning system was then interfaced with a software tool which performs virtual fencing of pre‐selected, dangerous areas. Guidelines for the design of the receivers’ topology will be addressed and the results of measurements recorded on a typical medium‐sized block of flats, during different phases of the construction progress will be summed up. Finally, the preliminary experimental results obtained by the virtual fencing application tool will be presented and used to plan future research objectives.

The article addresses one of the most pressing problems for a trading enterprise, namely the problem of routing logistics flows for efficient enterprise management. To optimize itineraries, we use state-of-the-art electronic navigation and mapping systems that can be implemented in modern computer technology, from online services available on any computer to mobile devices. Navigation and mapping systems are distributed software complexes with an array of information stored in database management systems. They involve millions of static objects and huge amounts of dynamic data around the world. To optimize the logistics flows, an algorithm for an automated routing system is described. This system solves the problems of automatic calculation of the construction and recognition of the optimal route between the specified points of its beginning and the end, tracking of movement on a given route and, in the case of congested roads, redirection of logistics flows. Based on the researches and experiments on the formation of a cognitive map in the human mind and the perception of the route description, an algorithm for storing and displaying route data is considered. This algorithm takes into account the personal psychology of perception of cartographic information. Developing an algorithm for describing the routing of trading enterprise traffic flows is creating a model of automatically found path between the predetermined points of its beginning and end. This mapping information is personalized, easy to read, fast to remember, and insensitive to user errors. The proposed algorithm is universal and can be used to solve a wide range of problems of logistic flows optimization.

Despite the fact that automated data collection (ADC) technologies come with new avenues of opportunities to reckon with that can be relevant for establishment of effective and efficient management approaches, studies indicate that construction industry has lagged behind in adopting and implementing these technologies. In the Kenyan construction industry, the current application of the information communication technology (ICT) platforms is on the conventional technologies like cameras, Smart phones & tablets applications and Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). However the use of more advanced ICT platforms like Global positioning systems (GPS) and wireless sensor networks remains highly unexploited in the construction industry. This paper seeks to establish factors which affect the adoption of automated data collection technologies by building contractors in Kenya. A Descriptive research survey design was used and structured questionnaires issued. The target population in this study comprised of Building works contractors in categories National Construction Authority (NCA) 1 to NCA3 operating within Nairobi County. Stratified systematic sampling was then used to draw the sample size from the population of 300 with a return of response rate of 63%. The study concluded that: the level of adoption of automated data collection (ADC) technologies by local building contractors in Kenya is significantly influenced by the cost of technology, availability of technology, management commitment, size of the firm and human resource capacity. The study recommends that construction firms should have competent planning and strategy teams to deal with innovation adoption. There is also the need for the government to improve the information communication technology infrastructure and through bodies like NCA introduce training programs on an industry level on the emerging technologies that can be applied in the construction sector.

AbstractThe construction technology (CONTEC) method was originally developed for automated CONTEC planning and project management based on the data in the form of a budget or bill of quantities. This article outlines a new approach in an automated creation of the discrete nD building information modeling (BIM) models by using data from the BIM model and their processing by existing CONTEC method through the CONTEC software. This article outlines the discrete modeling approach on BIM models as one of the applicable approaches for nD modeling. It also defines the methodology of interlinking BIM model data and CONTEC software through the classification of items. The interlink enables automation in the production of discrete nD BIM model data, such as schedule (4D) including work distribution end resource planning, budget (5D)—based on integrated pricing system, but also nD data such as health and safety risks (6D) plans (H&S Risk register), quality plans, and quality assurance checklists (7D) including their monitoring and environmental plans (8D). The methodology of the direct application of the selected classification system, as well as means of data transfer and conditions of data transferability, is described. The method was tested on the case study of an office building project, and acquired data were compared to actual construction time and costs. The case study proves the application of the CONTEC method as a usable method in the BIM model environment, enabling the creation of not only 4D, 5D models but also nD discrete models up to 8D models in the perception of the construction management process. In comparison with the existing BIM classification systems, further development of the method will enable full automated discrete nD model creation in the BIM model environment.

Recently, the IT field has developed a number of promising solutions that can be used in construction: machine vision systems for quality building monitoring, new Wi-Fi standards with increased speed and information protection, improved types of fiber optic lines, new categories of twisted pairs, providing exceptionally high performance in bandwidth reliability. The list goes on. The introduction of new solutions does not negate the use of existing, time-tested ones. For these solutions, the implementation experience has been gained, they are often more economical than new ones, and the peculiarities of their operation have been studied. As a result, designing an automated system for construction is not a trivial task, as the total number of IT components (including new and existing) is very large. The paper proposes a design approach to address the problem. The approach is based on the use of elements of the set theory and the capabilities of database management systems. As a result, it is possible to improve the quality of the project and significantly shorten the design time. The approach is explained by the example of designing a structured cable system of a building.

Abstract Modern construction technologies strongly affect the environment. Therefore, design and building construction should also follow the sustainable development principle. In this case, design and construction work based on the sustainable development principle should aim at creating a safe and healthy living environment, the economical use of natural resources, and the stimulation of economic development to create the welfare for humans and favourable natural conditions. The article proposes a mathematical algorithm as a comprehensive solution for engineering management of the planning construction site, from the calculation of the earthworks to the automated creation of the engineering geological cross-sections. The paper integrates engineering management, mathematical modelling, and BIM technology. The application of the building information model is undoubtedly one of the most advanced technologies used in the engineering management field, whose advantages have been shown by researchers. In the preliminary stage of construction and production management, decisions should be made regarding material and human resources, schedules, and estimates. The main purpose of this article is the optimisation of the excavation. Other issues important to the organisation and management of the construction are the planning of safe work on the construction site, depending on the soil type. Geotechnical sections allow ascertaining the need for additional fortifications and the depth of the fortifications for safe work. The paper describes the principal mathematical model developed by the authors to design a construction site using BIM technologies. It presents the main formulas of a mathematical algorithm aimed at selecting the objects used on the building site and the need for them. It also gives the main principles of engineering management and methods for selecting the mechanisms used on the construction site. Understandably, a specialist’s visit to the construction site will not be avoided, and it is difficult to present the entire current situation only with a review report or photographs. Using a photogrammetric model, the expert has the opportunity not only to visually evaluate the current condition but also to perform measurements (length, width, and volume) directly in the photogrammetric model. Important and new information about the construction site indicates all relevant obstacles, i.e., plants, surrounding constructions, and other objects.

The work provides multi-purpose optimization of the baklava production process based on technology of agent systems, the intelligent environment of process control systems. The general architecture of the control system intelligent environment with agent technologies for recognizing abnormal situations was developed and adaptive baklava production regulators were synthesized. It allows you to get the specified dynamic characteristics of the control object based on the developed adaptive systems for adjusting the PID controllers, controlling the parameters of the dough, kneading, separation and baking of baklava. The proposed approach to the construction of an automated process control system with an intelligent environment will reduce the variance of fluctuations in energy consumption, increase the production rate of high-quality baklava and reduce the time for re-equipment and technological modes of operation of baklava production lines.

The Machine Translation Toolpack for LoonyBin: Automated Management of Experimental Machine Translation HyperWorkflows Construction of machine translation systems has evolved into a multi-stage workflow involving many complicated dependencies. Many decoder distributions have addressed this by including monolithic training scripts - train-factored-model.pl for Moses and mr_runmer.pl for SAMT. However, such scripts can be tricky to modify for novel experiments and typically have limited support for the variety of job schedulers found on academic and commercial computer clusters. Further complicating these systems are hyperparameters, which often cannot be directly optimized by conventional methods requiring users to determine which combination of values is best via trial and error. The recently-released LoonyBin open-source workflow management tool addresses these issues by providing: 1) a visual interface for the user to create and modify workflows; 2) a well-defined logging mechanism; 3) a script generator that compiles visual workflows into shell scripts, and 4) the concept of Hyperworkflows, which intuitively and succinctly encodes small experimental variations within a larger workflow. In this paper, we describe the Machine Translation Toolpack for LoonyBin, which exposes state-of-the-art machine translation tools as drag-and-drop components within LoonyBin.

In specific judicial practice, the ODR mechanism has played an important role in the settlement of e-commerce disputes and network disputes. However, ODR is still in the exploratory stage in many aspects, and it is inevitable that there will be some problems. This article focuses on the A priori algorithm and frequent pattern growth algorithm in association with rule mining learning. The shortcomings of A priori algorithm and frequent pattern growth algorithm are described and researched accordingly, and an improved algorithm for learning A priori association rules based on matrix is proposed. By analyzing the international commercial dispute resolution mechanism in the Internet era, this article constructs an international commercial dispute resolution mechanism platform. By analyzing the process of disputes in foreign trade e-commerce transactions, this article proposes a method to automatically capture gateway dispute information through automated management system tools to improve the efficiency of the gateway. The algorithm in this paper scans the transaction database only once, and according to the matrix structure, it performs the logical AND operation of the row vector representing the data item in the matrix, and it learns frequent item sets quickly and accurately. The entire process effectively reduces the time consumption and space occupation required for frequent item set learning. According to the effective measurement method of the association rules, the effective association rules are extracted from the frequent item set. Through the realization of functions such as allocation, viewing, dispute handling, and statistics in the management tool, the progress and processing efficiency of the gateway dispute handling can be effectively managed. In addition, this article gives the dispute handling process of the website itself, adds the process of automatic completion of disputes by buyers and sellers through agreements, and improves the tools of the CS manual handling management system. The data results show that the method in this paper greatly improves the efficiency of handling disputes in foreign trade e-commerce transactions.

Abstract Successful Building Information Modelling (BIM) enabled projects that require large volumes of project data to be embedded within BIM models. However, with this wealth of data, relevance and accuracy have been identified as important issues affecting the BIM performance of the project. Currently, Quality Assurance (QA) in the industry has focused on geometric data, including scrutinising physical and spatial clashes. However, as BIM practices progress in the industry, the requirements for nongeometric model data and their quality have become more necessary. This study aimed to ascertain the feasibility of using visual programming for semi-automating the BIM QA process in a practical case study on using BIM in infrastructure projects. This paper outlines a generic semi-automated QA methodology and its application in a construction project case study. The validity of this method was tested and evaluated in practice through (n=2) workshops. The methodology was implemented within an integrated engineering consultancy, employing visual programming methodology to generate QA summaries and additionally highlight model elements with data quality issues based on a defined set of parameters. Based on the evaluation findings, the proposed process was feasible and provided a pathway for low-cost and low-skill QA of BIM model data within the architecture, engineering and construction (AEC) industry. The paper’s main scientific contribution is a conceptual framework for using visual programming to achieve automatic quality assurance.

The continuous development of automated control systems for industrial facilities leads to the emergence of more advanced and complex control algorithms. A natural consequence of the development of control systems (CS) is the use of more complex technical means: sensors, controllers, SCADA and MES systems. Ultimately, the saturation of systems with additional software and hardware leads to a decrease in manageability in general, since software needs to be updated, equipment often fails, needs replacement, etc. Thus, approaches aimed at creating separate, autonomously functioning subsystems are becoming a thing of the past. An integrated, multi-level joint management of the entire infrastructure of the process control system is needed, from the technological facility to the technical infrastructure, which is closely tied to the facility. The article discusses the issues of constructing top-level control subsystems for the process control system, when it is necessary to control directly the software and hardware as part of the process control system. As research methods, simulation and computer modeling was used, which made it possible to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed approaches and management methods. Also, the research results were verified through the pilot implementation of an automated incident management system based on the proposed approaches in the process of managing a complex technologically object. The novelty of the research lies in the proposed approach to incident management in automated process control systems, which makes it possible to improve the quality of management, reduce management costs, and predict (in some cases) the occurrence of new incidents and take measures to prevent them. Studies have shown the feasibility of using the proposed approach to control complex non-stationary automation systems.

Full textAbstract:
In today’s learning environment, e-learning systems are becoming a necessity. A competency-based student portfolio system is also gaining popularity. Due to the variety of e-learning systems and the increasing mobility of students between different learning institutions or e-learning systems, a higher level of automated competency portfolio integration is required. Increasing mobility and complexity makes manual mapping of student competencies unsustainable. The purpose of this paper is to automate the mapping of e-learning system competencies with student-gained competencies from other systems. Natural language processing, text similarity estimation, and fuzzy logic applications were used to implement the automated mapping process. Multiple cases have been tested to determine the effectiveness of the proposed solution. The solution has been shown to be able to accurately predict the coverage of system course competency by students’ course competency with an accuracy of approximately 77%. As it is not possible to achieve 100% mapping accuracy, the competency mapping should be executed semi-automatically by applying the proposed solution to obtain the initial mapping, and then manually revising the results as necessary. When compared to a fully manual mapping of competencies, it reduces workload and increases resource sustainability.
