Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The construction industry faces continual challenges and demands, due to market conditions and coercion by governments, for improvements in safety, quality and cost control, and in the avoidance of contractual disputes. To meet these challenges construction enterprises need to constantly seek new directions and business models in construction management. A number of tools, methods and concepts have been developed and advocated as aids to achieving improved performance, but many in the industry find them confusing or are sceptical of their relevance. The third edition of Construction Management: New Directionsbrings together, in a single volume, detailed discussion of a range of contemporary management concepts which are relevant to the construction industry, including strategic management; benchmarking; reengineering; partnering and alliancing; enterprise risk management; total safety management; total quality management; value management and constructability. It provides a straightforward, accessible and objective account of these concepts, showing how they interrelate and can be used to improve the performance of the construction firm. This research based text will be essential reading for industry leaders and practitioners, as well as researchers, postgraduate and senior undergraduate students. From a review of previous editions I am in no doubt that this book will quickly become a favourite among students and practitioners alike —Construction Manager

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The development of IS 15883: Part 2 (2009), Construction Time Management Guidelines is an important milestone in formally recognizing the threshold framework for the construction industry. This initiative of Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) provides for a national framework for time management which specifically focuses on unique aspects of Indian construction industry. This handbook supplements the BIS framework enshrined in IS 15883: Part 2, and thereby facilitating capacity building for widespread application of the Guidelines. The chapters of handbook follow the stages of a typical project life cycle of a construction project, flowing seamlessly from project inception through to project closure. In addition, latest trends in the construction sector in terms of tools, techniques, and software have also been elaborated. It is implied that time management operates in conjunction with other interdependent processes of project management, and might need multi‐dimensional decision making. To that extent this handbook does elaborate the relevant interface that maybe critical for comprehensive project management approach. As a primary expectation, the handbook would serve as a supplementary textbook for students of architecture, and civil engineering who are pursuing subjects in construction management. It is also an effortless reference for new entrants to the field of project management, and other management professionals as well who seek a quick reference to the tools and techniques of time management illustrated through examples in easy language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Innovation in construction is essential for growth. The industry strives to remain competitive using a variety of approaches and needs to engage structured initiatives linked to proven innovation concepts, techniques and applications. Even in mature markets like the Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) sector, where business behaviour is generally considered as being risk averse, it is increasingly important to embed innovation into mainstream business practices. In Construction Innovation and Process Improvement a number of wide ranging issues from construction practice in different countries with different contexts are presented to provide a rich collection of literature embracing theory and practice. Chapters are divided into three broad themes of construction innovation relating to: Theory and Practice; Process Drivers; and Future Technologies. Several questions are posed, including for example: What is particularly unique about construction innovation in theory and practice? What are the major drivers of construction innovation? What factors are needed to support and deliver future construction technologies? In attempting to respond to such questions, the book sheds new light on these challenges, and provides readers with a number of ways forward, especially cognisant of the increased role of globalisation, the enhanced impact of knowledge, and importance of innovation. All these can have a significant impact on strategic decision-making, competitive advantage, and sustainable policies and practices. Part One deals with change management, technology, sustainable construction, and supply chain management; Part Two addresses innovation and process improvement drivers, including strategic management, concurrent engineering, risk management, innovative procurement, knowledge management; Part Three explores future technologies in construction – and particularly, how these can be harnessed and leveraged to help procure innovation and process improvement.

Download or read book Reengineering .NET written by Bradley Irby and published by Addison-Wesley. This book was released on 2012-10-24 with total page 850 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reengineer .NET Code to Improve Quality, Update Architecture, Access New Tools, and Accelerate Delivery of New Features As software ages, it becomes brittle: difficult to understand, fix, manage, use, and improve. Developers working with many platforms have encountered this problem; now, developers working with Microsoft’s .NET are facing it as well. In Reengineering .NET, leading .NET architect Bradley Irby introduces proven best practices for revitalizing older .NET code and integrating new architectural and development advances into business-critical systems that can’t go offline. Using a step-by-step approach, .NET professionals can make legacy enterprise software more reliable, maintainable, attractive, and usable—and make it easier to upgrade for years to come. Through real-world case studies and extensive downloadable sample code, Irby shows how to carefully plan a .NET reengineering project, understand the true current state of your code, introduce unit testing and other agile methods, refactor to services and controllers, and leverage powerful .NET reengineering tools built into Microsoft Visual Studio 2012. This book is an indispensable resource for all developers, architects, and project managers responsible for existing .NET code bases and for a wide audience of non-technical managers and CTOs who want to understand the unique challenges faced by .NET teams involved in application or system reengineering projects. Coverage includes • Migrating legacy .NET software to more flexible, extensible, and maintainable architectures—without breaking it • Reengineering web applications with the MVC pattern, Winforms software with MVP, and WPF/Silverlight systems with MVVM • Asking the right questions to predict refactoring problems before they happen • Planning and organizing reengineering projects to apply the right expertise to each task at the right time • Using innovative Test Doubling to make unit testing even more effective • Applying Dependency Inversion to break tight coupling and promote easier development and testing • Leveraging source control, defect tracking, and continuous integration • “Cleaning up” legacy solutions to improve them before you even touch business logic • Establishing solid development infrastructure to support your reengineering project • Refactoring to services—including advanced techniques using Repositories, Domain Models, and the Command Dispatcher • Refactoring to controller/view or ViewModel/View pairs

Book excerpt: Creating software of any kind is an enormously expensive proposition, whether for internal use or commercial application. The range of activities involved in engineering and creating software are mind-boggling in complexity. Yet, every time new software is developed, most programmers start from scratch without considering what might be re-used or salvaged from existing programs. Re-Engineering Software addresses the principles, approaches, support systems, underlying methodologies, and real case examples for re-using (and thus building on) previously existing software.
