Many Information Technology (IT) tools now exist to support collaborative working between engineering organisations. These often address operational issues rather than tactical or strategic issues. In particular, there are no effective tools for collaborative project planning between project partners. An electronic engineering hub (e-Hub) is considered useful in this regard. This paper presents...

The tremendous power and low price of today's computer systems have created the opportunity for exciting applications rich with graphics, audio and video. Despite this potential, planning computer systems to support the intensity of these multimedia applications is an extremely di cult task. We have developed a exible model and method that allows us to predict multimedia application performance...

Problem: As planners grow increasingly confident that they have settled on the right concepts and methods to conduct stakeholder-based collaboration, they are not considering what can be achieved through other collaborative approaches. Purpose: We aimed to explore how creating a network of placeand stakeholder-based collaboratives using communities of practice could strengthen individual collab...

This paper provides a review of existing instructional planning approaches, classified in two groups: delivery and content planning (Wasson, 1990). It is suggested that instructional planning doesn’t have to be associated with a particular teaching style or locus of control. Two examples are used to illustrate how instructional planning can implement different instructional strategies, some of ...

Ship path planning is one of the key technologies for ship automation. Establishing a cooperative collision avoidance (CA) multi-ship encounters great value to maritime intelligent transportation. This study aims solve problem collaborative based on algorithm Conflict Search (CS) and Space-Time Hybrid A-star (STHA). First, static CA searched each by using space-time algorithm, conflict risk are...

Although a growing body of literature has examined variety planning support systems, few studies have been conducted to understand emerging apps for mobile participation and its impact on collaborative planning. This research develops conceptual framework assessing different phases processes the added value in stakeholder interaction management. The case include four Dutch regeneration projects...

This paper describes the work on the Collaborative Planning Model in Project 12. An hypothesis is presented to attempt to unify the different planning doctrines under a common model. This has guided the development of a generic planning OWL ontology containing aspects of constraint-based reasoning and teamwork. The ontology also models “reasoning steps” and the dependencies between expertise, i...
