Assessing coordination performance based on centrality in an e-mail communication network
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2015-05-01)Building design and construction require the collective effort of diverse project participants. The coordination performance of these project participants is important for effective management and needs to be assessed ... -
Coordination process and network centrality in ISGI Airport's Wayfinding project
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2012)Coordination is integral to operational efficiency of construction projects. Coordination process relies on managing dependent activities and the structural centrality in social networks is strategic to project actor's ... -
Determining attribute weights in a CBR model for early cost prediction of structural systems
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2006)This paper compares the performance of three optimization techniques, namely feature counting, gradient descent, and genetic algorithms (GA) in generating attribute weights that were used in a spreadsheet-based case based ... -
Evaluating the knowledge management practices of construction firms by using importance-comparative performance analysis maps
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2011-12)The emergence of the effective management of knowledge resources as a key factor in gaining and sustaining competitive advantage presents new challenges to construction firms. Evaluating knowledge management practices is ... -
Evaluating the project coordination performance using information centrality
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2014)Evaluation of coordination performance in a project network requires reliable measures and monitoring methods for effective management. Recent literature includes studies addressing the relationship between coordinative ... -
Perceptions of process quality in building projects
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 1999-03)A Delphi process and a questionnaire survey are conducted to investigate the differences in the perceptions of entry-level professionals and long-time practitioners with regard to process quality in building projects. The ... -
Using decision trees for determining attribute weights in a case-based model of early cost prediction
(American Society of Civil Engineers, 2008)This paper compares the performance of three different decision-tree-based methods of assigning attribute weights to be used in a case-based reasoning (CBR) prediction model. The generation of the attribute weights is ...
