9314527奥康纳本研究的基本假设是，如果系统可用于帮助用户进行分析，则可施工性的实践将得到增强。 为了验证这一假设，研究人员将开发一个决策支持系统，用于工业管道的可施工性分析。 计算机方法包括基于规则和基于实例的推理的混合方案，用于表示知识和虚拟现实环境，作为分析和可视化平台。 除了开发系统，这项研究将导致（一）调查所需的适应性应用计算机方法的建设领域和（ii）定义的方法，开发计算机集成的建设系统。 第一阶段将确定影响 可构造性，并以决策序列的形式对过程进行建模。 第二阶段将侧重于制定表示分析所需数据和基本知识的方案。 在第三阶段，这些表示将与虚拟现实环境相结合。

9314527 O'Connor The basic hypothesis of this research is that the practice of constructability will be enhanced if a systems is available to assist the user in conducting the analysis. To test this hypothesis the investigators will develop a decision support system for the constructability analysis of industrial piping. Computer methods include a hybrid scheme consisting of rule-based and case- based reasoning for representing knowledge and a virtual reality environment to serve as analysis and visualization platform. In addition to developing the system, this research will result in (i) an investigation of the adaptations required to apply the computer methods to the construction domain and (ii) definition of a methodology for developing computer integrated construction systems. The first phase will identify the variables influencing constructability and model the process in the form of a decision sequence. The second phase will focus on the development of schemes to represent the data and basic knowledge required for the analysis. In the third phase the representations will be integrated with a virtual reality environment.
