Efficient communication, collaboration, data exchange and sharing
are crucial for the success of today’s many multi-disciplinary and
interdisciplinary work environments. The implementation of computer
integrated environments (CIE) is increasing and the requirements
engineering necessary for the development of these systems is
critical.
Requirements Engineering for Computer Integrated Environments
in Construction provides an important source of information and
advice for organizations needing bridge the gap between users and
developers in the implementation of computer integrated solutions
as well as for consultants providing services to their clients in
CIE development.
The framework explained in the book is comprehensive and
accessible. It provides a set of tools and techniques enabling
readers to design, manage and deliver effective CIE-type systems in
any complex organization – from construction and
manufacturing to the information technology and service sectors.
Construction companies for example, can use the framework provided
to implement building information modelling to manage the
diagnosis, planning, implementation and monitoring stages in BIM
adoption.
Based on real experiences and lessons learned from many years of
system development, this book offers an excellent resource for
researchers and postgraduate students interested in CIE development
for all multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary work
environments.
