Implementierung von Nachhaltigkeitskriterien im Industriebau in den Leistungsphasen 6 bis 8 (Entwicklung neuer Ansätze zum nachhaltigen Planen und Bauen)
by Alina GerstnerDie Bauindustrie trägt wesentlich zu einer nicht nachhaltigen Lebensweise bei, da sie unter anderem signifikant hohe CO₂-Emissionen, einen großen Flächen- und Ressourcenverbrauch sowie erhebliche Abfallmengen verursacht. Um nationale als auch globale Nachhaltigkeitsziele zu erreichen und eine lebenswerte Umwelt zu sichern, muss die Bauwirtschaft Verantwortung übernehmen und Bauvorhaben zielstrebig nachhaltiger planen und umsetzen. In diesem Buch wird ein Leitfaden zur Implementierung von Nachhaltigkeitskriterien speziell für Industriebauten entwickelt, der in der Objektplanung Anwendung finden soll. Der Fokus liegt dabei auf den Leistungsphasen 6 bis 8 der HOAI, da diese Phasen – welche die Ausschreibung, Vergabe und Bauausführung umfassen – als besonders relevant für die Sicherstellung einer nachhaltigen Bauweise gelten. Sie können als Schlüsselphasen betrachtet werden, in denen geplante Nachhaltigkeitsziele konkret überführt, konkretisiert sowie anschließend in der Praxis umgesetzt werden müssen. Der Leitfaden soll die Objektplanung dabei unterstützen, konkrete Ziele und Maßnahmen vorzugeben, um die Realisierung eines nachhaltigen Industriebaus zu gewährleisten. Dabei werden relevante Regelwerke, Zertifizierungs- und Bewertungssysteme sowie wissenschaftliche Arbeiten und bestehende Leitfäden detailliert untersucht. Neben den Zielsetzungen und den entsprechenden Maßnahmen jeder Leistungsphase fließen auch verschiedene Nachhaltigkeitsdimensionen wie Ökologie, Ökonomie und Soziales in die Bewertung ein, um damit eine ganzheitliche und umfassende Betrachtung der Nachhaltigkeitsaspekte zu gewährleisten. Weiterhin sollen zur Förderung einer flexiblen Gestaltung auch spezifische Projektanforderungen, wie z.B. Vorgaben der EU-Taxonomie, Zertifizierungsindikatoren oder die individuellen Wünsche des Bauherrn berücksichtigt werden. Abschließend wird der Leitfaden in einem Referenzprojekt angewendet und evaluiert, um die Praxistauglichkeit zu überprüfen und Möglichkeiten für dessen Optimierung bei zukünftigen Industriebauprojekten zu identifizieren.
Implementing Cloud Robotics for Practical Applications: From Human-Robot Interaction to Autonomous Navigation (Springer Tracts in Advanced Robotics #152)
by Ricardo C. Mello Moises R. Ribeiro Anselmo Frizera-NetoThis book explores cloud robotics by casting a light on key issues and proposing a novel approach towards implementation and practical aspects to allow for the widespread adoption of cloud-based functionality. The advent of cloud robotics can to unleash a new generation of smart robotic devices by allowing robots to explore cloud computing capabilities to share data and to offload heavy processing applications. Cloud robotics is investigated as an enabler to a series of applications and devices, questioning how the insertion of network and cloud technologies into such systems might affect the interaction between a robot and the human operating it, and what are the limiting requirements for cloud-based solutions. Aiming at researchers and practitioners, this book also presents a methodology based on open-source software and commercial off-the-shelf devices to provide a common standard for reproducing and benchmarking different cloud robotics systems.

Case reviews of a range of applications are discussed and issues arising from their implementation are explored. Pitfalls, benefits and experience shapers are reviewed and presented systematically so the reader can consider these in the light of their own experience. Outlining key drivers for advanced students and for professionals who may have to face these issues in the future, Implementing IT in Construction clearly presents the value of IT implementation and the benefits of a number of IT applications.
Implementing Industry 4.0: The Model Factory as the Key Enabler for the Future of Manufacturing (Intelligent Systems Reference Library #202)
by Wei Wang Carlos Toro Humza AkhtarThis book relates research being implemented in three main research areas: secure connectivity and intelligent systems, real-time analytics and manufacturing knowledge and virtual manufacturing. Manufacturing SMEs and MNCs want to see how Industry 4.0 is implemented. On the other hand, groundbreaking research on this topic is constantly growing. For the aforesaid reason, the Singapore Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR), has created the model factory initiative. In the model factory, manufacturers, technology providers and the broader industry can (i) learn how I4.0 technologies are implemented on real-world manufacturing use-cases, (ii) test process improvements enabled by such technologies at the model factory facility, without disrupting their own operations, (iii) co-develop technology solutions and (iv) support the adoption of solutions at their everyday industrial operation. The book constitutes a clear base ground not only for inspiration of researchers, but also for companies who will want to adopt smart manufacturing approaches coming from Industry 4.0 in their pathway to digitization.

Implementing Project and Program Benefit Management (Best Practices in Portfolio, Program, and Project Management)
by Kenn DolanOne of the most difficult, yet important, questions regarding projects is "What advantages will this project create for the investors and key stakeholders?" Projects and programs should be treated as investments. This means that the focus of projects shifts from delivering within the triple constraints (time–cost–quality) towards some of the more fundamental questions: <P><P> <li>What is the purpose of this investment? <li>What are the specific advantages expected? <li>Are these benefits worth the investment? <P><P>Implementing Project and Program Benefit Management is written for executives and practitioners within the portfolio, program, and project environment. It guides them through the important work that must be addressed as the investment progresses towards the realization of benefits. The processes discussed cover the strategic elements of benefits realization as well as the more detailed requirements, which are the domain of the program delivery teams and the operational users. Using real cases to explain complex situations, operational teams and wider groups of stakeholders, including communities affected by infrastructure projects, will be able to engage in the conversation with the sponsors and delivery teams. <P><P>Covering an area of program and project management that is rapidly becoming more widely valued, this book blends theory with practical experience to present a clear process flow to managing the benefits life cycle. Best practices are defined, and pitfalls and traps are identified to enable practitioners to apply rigor and structure to this crucial discipline.
Implementing Safety Management Systems in Aviation (Ashgate Studies in Human Factors for Flight Operations)
by Alan J. Stolzer John J. Goglia Carl D. HalfordThe International Civil Aviation Organization has mandated that all of its member states implement Safety Management Systems (SMS) in their aviation industries. Responding to that call, many countries are now in various stages of SMS development, implementation, and rulemaking.

This follow-up book provides a very brief overview of SMS and offers significant guidance and best practices on implementing SMS programs. Very specific guidance is provided by industry experts from government, industry, academia, and consulting, who share their invaluable insights from first-hand experience of all aspects of effective SMS programs. The contributing authors come from all facets of aviation, including regulation and oversight, airline, general aviation, military, airport, maintenance, and industrial safety. Chapters address important topics such as how to develop a system description and perform task analyses, perspectives on data sharing, strategies for gaining management support, establishing a safety culture, approaches to auditing, integrating emergency planning and SMS, and more. Also included is a fictional narrative/story that can be used as a case study on SMS implementation. Implementing Safety Management Systems in Aviation is written for safety professionals and students alike.
