As contemporary society becomes information-oriented, major construction companies have recently invested in information management, but small and medium ones have not. Though the small and medium companies recognize the information management is necessary and important, they don't have an ability to possess technical expertises. The purpose of this study is to develop a Schedule Risk Control System based on blogs using IT and web technologies for construction managers in small and medium construction companies. The system makes a chance to identify risk factors and prepare for responses to settle risks happened in preconstruction phases, and enables the managers and headquarters to predict and handle schedule risks by sharing information about risks on the blogs.

An application-oriented approach to automatic pass schedule design in shape rolling was presented in this paper. The design approach and its related program are composed of several modules for input data, graphic display, data processing, calculation of design information, drawing of detailed pass shapes, database management and finite element analysis for design verification. The developed program was applied to automatic pass schedule design for a square-to-round bar shape rolling.

Recently, diverse schedule management agents are being researched for the efficient schedule management of smart devices users, but they remain at a confirmatory level. In order to efficiently manage user's schedules, execution of planned schedules should be monitored to help users properly execute their schedules, or feedback must be given so that when setting up new schedules, users can plan their schedule according to their schedule establishment patterns. This research proposes a schedule management agent that infers the user's behaviors by using acquired user context, and provides schedule related feedback depending on the user's behavior patterns, when users are executing their schedules or planning new schedules. For this, collected user context information is preprocessed and user's behavior is inferred by Bayesian network. Also, in order to provide feedbacks necessary for confirming the user's schedule execution and new schedule establishment, a context tree pattern matching method for the user's schedule, location and time contexts was applied, then verified with 6 weeks of user simulation in a mobile environment.

In recent years, with the spread of communication media, such as a cellular phone and E-mail, we are able to communicate with others without any restriction of position or time. However, complexity of communicative context has increased so that user has to guess a partner user's situation and status in order to use various medias efficiently. This problem will grow larger as new media are brought in the expanding communications network. To solve this problem, we propose the system that guesses the context in communication by a user's media from the position information on PHS (Personal Handy phone System) and schedule information from schedule application. In this system a user's agent guesses automatically the context that owner has set, and answers the demand of the context from a partner user. Moreover, the agent decides a suitable answer, when there is a demand of communication by the media, which cannot be used.

In this paper, we propose a novel project schedule notification and issue tracking system based on a social networking service for project management on a smartphone. The proposed system has a server subsystem and a client subsystem. The server is in charge of enabling a deadline notification and an issue tracking of the project to project participants by exploiting a legacy social networking service. The client running on a smartphone displays timelines of the project schedule using Gantt chart and let the project participant edit their schedule. The proposed system combines the mobility of smartphones and the connectivity of social networking services and apply them to schedule notification and issue tracking, which demonstrates a novel usage of social networking services.

Purpose of this study is to suggest some modules to integrate schedule and change control. The study has been performed through the process of literature review, effect comparison of being not integrated and integrated of the schedule and change control, and finally suggest new integrated modules. The results of this study are as follows: 1) Suggestion of a Predicted Change Information Control Module: This nodule can be used to assess the impact of changes in advance and to prepare counteraction. 2) Suggestion of a Change Information Control Module: This module is used to update current schedule for the realized changes. 3) Suggestion of a Revision History Maintenance Module: This module is used to record schedule and cost revision history and to analyze the overall change trend.

The typical Critical Path Method (CPM) leaves it to the construction managers to overcome two problems in developing networks. First, the construction manager needs to prepare information on the type of activities and their precedence relations in order to develop a network schedule. Second, he or she can include space information into the network schedule such as the locations where the activities take place, only with difficulty. These two problems make it difficult for an inexperienced person to create a network. The purpose of this paper is to provide construction managers with set equations of creating a network schedule for multiunit projects. A space-resource combined network creation are presented in this paper, which includes equations for generating a list of required activities, their precedence relations, and information on their location. Information on the space (location) and the resource is the required data for this method. Based on this information, this method divides a project into a number of activities so that each activity contains the information on the location where the activity takes place and the principal resource required for that activity. Precedence relations are then obtained from the sequence of space and resource. This method has the potential to reduce human efforts in scheduling activities.

Plant project is a complex project that consists of civil engineering, building, mechanical and electronic works. The schedule management is one of important factors in plant project because the construction duration of the project is very short comparing with the other construction projects. Specially, 4D CAD system needs to visualize construction schedule information in those complex projects. This study suggests methodologies for improving 4D CAD functions by considering those project characteristics. To develop a plant 4D CAD system, this study includes to develop new functions by analyzing actual schedule information from the plant construction sites.

This paper presents a window-based load management system (LMS) developed as a decision-making tool in the competitive electricity market The developed LMS can help the users to monitor system load patterns, analyze their past energy consumption and schedule for the future energy consumption. The LMS can also provide the effective information on real-time energy/cost monitoring, consumed energy/cost analysis, demand schedule and cost-savings. Therefore. this LMS can be used to plan the optimal demand schedule and consumption strategy.

Cost and Schedule is the most important information, and how efficiently manage this information is the key issue for Construction Project Management. Domestically, systematic scheduling method such as CPM network is not only used widely but integration of time and cost information also is. In order to effectively integrate and use the time and cost information, it is suggested that WBS(Work Breakdown Structure) based QDB(Quantity Database) should be generated from the design phase and, WBS and QDB related system tool should be supported. It could be helpful to relate and integrate other construction project information.
