Feniosky Pena-Mora9875557ABSTRACT ---------The objective of the proposed CAREER program is to develop a negotiationmethodology and tool for large-scale collaborative infrastructure projects.The proposed methodology and tool will help: 1) organize negotiationknowledge into a structure that enables systematic and scientificexploration; 2) formally model the structural and substantive issues ofnegotiations in large-scale infrastructure projects; and 3) understand andmodel how communication technologies influence the pattern of suchnegotiations. In addition, the proposed methodology and practical toolwill help engineers and designers establish negotiation strategies formitigating and resolving engineering conflicts in large-scaleinfrastructure projects. Such a comprehensive negotiation methodology andtool is expected to provide benefits for the entire life cycle of theproject by reducing costs, avoiding delays, eliminating counterproductivenegotiation plans, and improving negotiation skills among engineers workingon large-scale infrastructure projects.In addition, the project will develop an integrated research laboratory andclassroom alliance aimed at improving the understanding of negotiation andcollaboration in the domain of large-scale engineering systems. Thiseffort will place tomorrow's communication and collaboration technologiesalong with the understanding of how to use it most effectively, into thehands of the next generation of professionals. This will be accomplishedthrough a unique research-industry-education-research feedback loop createdby the participation of five universities, two corporate entities, and onepublic agency. The core of the research will be achieved through a formalanalysis cycle starting with information acquisition, formalization,systematization, testing, refinement, and ending with informationdissemination. In this program, practice, research and education areexpected to work in an integrated fashion to understand and masternegotiation strategies in large-scale infrastructure projects requiringcollaboration between global teams. The proposed program provides excellent benefits both, from the researchand educational perspectives in analyzing systematic negotiation strategiesfor large-scale infrastructure projects. From the research perspective,the key intellectual contribution of this work is the acquisition,formalization, systematization, testing and dissemination of a partiallyformalized structure of the existing negotiation knowledge, where thefundamental questions about collaboration and negotiation could start to beanswered. From the educational perspective, the proposed class willprovide a forum in which the impact of a negotiation methodology addressingthe issues of time and distance on project life cycle will be explored.Finally, the class will include the participation and guidance of seasonedindustry professionals in a controlled environment with real-world data.

Feniosky Pena-Mora9875557 ABSTRACT-建议职业计划的目标是为大型协作基础设施项目开发谈判方法和工具。建议的方法和工具将有助于：1)将谈判知识组织到一个能够进行系统和科学探索的结构中；2)对大型基础设施项目中谈判的结构性和实质性问题进行正式建模；以及3)了解和建模通信技术如何影响此类谈判的模式。此外，所提出的方法和实用工具将帮助工程师和设计师建立谈判策略，以形成和解决大型基础设施项目中的工程冲突。这种全面的谈判方法和工具有望通过降低成本、避免延误、消除适得其反的谈判计划以及提高大型基础设施项目工程师之间的谈判技能，为项目的整个生命周期提供好处。此外，该项目还将发展一个综合研究实验室和课堂联盟，旨在提高对大型工程系统领域谈判和合作的理解。这一努力将把未来的通信和协作技术以及如何最有效地使用它的理解交到下一代专业人员手中。这将通过一个独特的研究-产业-教育-研究反馈循环来实现，该循环由五所大学、两个公司实体和一个公共机构参与创建。研究的核心将通过一个形式分析周期实现，从信息获取、正规化、系统化、测试、改进开始，以信息传播结束。在这个项目中，实践、研究和教育将以一种综合的方式工作，以了解和掌握需要全球团队合作的大型基础设施项目的战略。从研究和教育的角度来看，拟议的方案在分析大型基础设施项目的系统谈判策略方面都提供了极好的好处。从研究的角度来看，这项工作的关键智力贡献是对现有谈判知识的部分形式化结构的获取、形式化、系统化、测试和传播，在这里可以开始回答关于协作和谈判的基本问题。从教育的角度来看，拟议的课程将提供一个论坛，在这个论坛上，将探讨解决时间和距离问题的谈判方法对项目生命周期的影响。最后，课程将包括经验丰富的行业专业人员在受控环境中的参与和指导，以及真实世界的数据。
