Situational Production Management

Construction of Situational Information Systems Management Methods

Situational method engineering (SME) is an established approach to create situated methods which allows the systematic construction of software artifacts while considering specific project context and goals. The author’s motivation is to investigate whether and how SME can be applied to Information Systems management (ISM), i.e., if SME concepts can be extended in order to create situated ISM m...

FAWKES Information Management for Space Situational Awareness

Current space situational awareness assets can be fully utilized by managing their inputs and outputs in real time. Ideally, sensors are tasked to perform specific functions to maximize their effectiveness. Many sensors are capable of collecting more data than is needed for a particular purpose, leading to the potential to enhance a sensor’s utilization by allowing it to be re-tasked in real ti...

Interactive Situational Simulations in Construction Management

This research effort proposes that interactive situational simulation environments can provide platforms for better understanding the construction management domain as a closely coupled system of human and resource interactions. Situational simulations create temporally dynamic clinical exercises that expose participants to rapidly unfolding events and the pressures of decision-making. Such env...

Situational Handling of Events for Industrial Production Environments

Industrial production environments are complex, volatile and driven by uncertainties nowadays. Enterprises are striving for flexibility and adaptability to handle these challenges and remain competitive. Market requirements such as shortened product life cycles, increasing number of variants, and customized products lead to complexity in production systems. To be able to handle this complexity,...
