The Principal Investigators (PIs) propose to organize a workshop for participants to identify a research agenda that will serve the National Science Foundation in its effort to guide the enineering research community involved in design and construction of capital facilties. The architecture engineering construction (AEC) industry has been changing at an ever increasin pace, due to specialization, fragmentation, litigation, and globalization. These have led to the high complexity and uncertainity so characteristic of most projects being developed today. Despite the challenges ahead, oppurtunities abound thanks to a shift in thinking regarding the engineering and construction process combined with the availability of new information technologies, organiational and contractual restructing, and means and methods. This shift makes it conceivable to achieve true integration among all AEC players so as to result in increased value delivered to owners. The workshop will bring together researchers and practitioners who are active in the field so they can discuss the advancement of theory for construction engineering and management and research efforts to support its development. The workshop will be oranized jointly by a PI at Berkeley and a PI at Stanford as follows. First, potential participants will be solicited by electronically issuing a request for submission of "whitepapers" or "position papers." Second, the submissions will be posted on the web and submitted to public a vote (each author will be able to vote for his or her five favorite papers). Third, taking the outcome of the vote as the basis for decision making, the PIs, together with a steering committee, will select participants to the workshop. Additional considerations for selection of workshop participants are: representation of sectors (industry and academia), ability to lead discussion sections, and academic rank, and research experience. Fourth, the workshop will be held in late August at Stanford University. Finally, all preparatory whitepapers, summaries of the discussions, and the conclusions of the workshop will be posted on the web, hosted at a site at the University of California, Berkeley, so as to reach the widest audience possible.

首席调查员(PI)建议为与会者组织一次讲习班，以确定将服务于国家科学基金会的研究议程，以指导参与设计和建造资本设施的工程研究界。由于专业化、碎片化、诉讼和全球化，建筑工程建设(AEC)行业正在以越来越快的速度发生变化。这些都导致了当今大多数正在开发的项目的高度复杂性和不确定性。尽管面临挑战，但由于对工程和施工过程的思维发生了转变，再加上新的信息技术、组织和合同结构调整以及手段和方法的出现，机遇比比皆是。这一转变使得所有AEC参与者之间实现真正的整合成为可能，从而增加为业主提供的价值。研讨会将汇集活跃在该领域的研究人员和实践者，他们可以讨论建设工程和管理理论的进步，以及支持其发展的研究努力。研讨会将由伯克利的一名私人投资者和斯坦福大学的一名私人投资者共同组织如下。首先，将以电子方式发布提交“白皮书”或“立场文件”的请求，以征集潜在参与者。其次，投稿将在网上公布，并向公众提交一份投票(每位作者将能够投票选出他或她最喜欢的五篇论文)。第三，督导委员会会以投票结果作为决策基础，挑选参加者参加工作坊。选择研讨会参与者的其他考虑因素是：行业代表(工业和学术界)、领导讨论部分的能力、学术排名和研究经验。第四，研讨会将于8月下旬在斯坦福大学举行。最后，所有筹备白皮书、讨论总结和研讨会结论都将张贴在网站上，托管在加州大学伯克利分校的一个网站上，以便尽可能广泛地接触到受众。
