Construction Schedule

Schedule control is the major issue in project management, and to predict the construction schedule effectively is important practically. The article mainly predicts the schedule of a project based on BP neural network. The result shows that the predicted value is more accurate than the value calculated by linear method.

Increases In Risk

This paper examines the environment in which improvements in ship construction can occur and looks at the type of planning that must be done to ensure benefits are realized. The Navy is now the major customer of the U.S. shipbuilding industry, and even with the increased emphasis on competitive procurement, by necessity, contracts for a significant amount of sole-source ship construction will exist due to technical or facility constraints. For these contracts, as well as many others, the shipbuilder has a limited incentive to accept the increases in risk inherent in changing his business strategy and existing industrial processes. Recognizing this problem, the Navy began, successfully, to change the environment for aircraft carrier construction. This paper describes the Navy's efforts.

Allocation Plans

In this paper we describe the development and implementation of a tool that allows shipyard planners and construction managers to efficiently and effectively plan work area space within large manufacturing facilities. Currently, there are no software planning tools available to explicitly plan and schedule critical manufacturing space. The activity-based spatial scheduling tool described in this paper can be used by planners and construction management teams to easily reserve space within shipyard facilities for the construction and outfitting of large units. The Activity-Based Spatial Scheduling Tool gives users the ability to rapidly generate and compare multiple space allocation plans, with the ultimate goal of maintaining the critical ship construction schedule.
