Abstract:

The author points out that the existing simulation systems cannot represent precisely the ill-structured logic in construction operations without if-then representation. He also discusses the methodologies of system simulation which are based on artificial intelligence methods. The author then presents a prototype system developed of the simulation system, and shows an example of simulation models and the results using the OPS/83 system. It is concluded that the methodologies described in the paper are indispensable for developing a precise system model of construction operations and, hence, improving them.
