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.

Federalism has played an important role in the explosion of legalized gambling in the United States in the last two decades. Indian gaming, in particular, has challenged state and national governments to come to terms with the place of American Indian tribes within the federalist system and organize a meaningful framework for the expansion of gaming on tribal lands. Now largely controlled by a federal statutory framework, Indian gaming has left states in a subordinate position in negotiating the establisment of major casino enterprises within their own borders. Confusion in states' rights during negotiations has further weakened their bargaining position, leading to extensive tribal casino development. The cooperation between states and tribes and states and casino corporations have facilitated casino proliferation throughout the United States, a trend that appears destined to contiue until the market is fully saturated.
