Description:
Development of a strong understanding of contemporary tools for managing the vast array of information in the project life-cycle. Information handling is reviewed both from the perspective of knowledge acquisition and knowledge representation. The course focuses on the concepts of Fully Integrated and Automated Project Processes (FIAPP), and the interrelationships of 3D computer models, simulation, cost estimating, scheduling, procurement and information technology (emphasis is given on the implementation of 3D computer models and relational databases as information systems for project information handling and project automation).
