Construction Information Workspaces: Making Information Work
This
research is a joint effort between researchers at the Center for Integrated
Facility Engineering (CIFE) and the Interactive
Workspaces Group in Computer Science department at Stanford University.
The project explores how Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) multi-disciplinary
project teams can use an Interactive
Workspace environment to support group tasks, such as project review, project
planning, and decision-making. The project titled "CIFE Integration Workspace"
focuses on the issues related to large-scale workspace environment, such as
the Stanford Interactive Workspace room and the Interactive Mural, and the project
titled "4D Annotator" focuses on the desktop workspace environment.
The
objectives of this research are to define and evaluate new ways for project
teams to interact with and visualize project information. In past years, our
efforts in this area have focused on the desktop and the 4D
environment. The focus in this research is to expand the 4D vizualization
techniques to a broader visualization of a variety of types of project information.
