Management Conflicts

The object of the research is the processes of managing uncertainties such as risks, conflicts, and factors of behavioral economics, which may have negative consequences for a scientific project. The study revealed that the success of any project depends on the ability of the project manager to effectively manage his team to meet the values of each stakeholder and the goals of the project itself. To solve this goal, it is necessary to complete the following tasks: - analysis of methods of integration of risk management, conflicts, and factors of behavioral economics; - justification of the necessity to build integrated anti-risk management of conflicts in behavioral economics; - to carry out conceptual modeling of integrated anti-risk conflict management in behavioral economics. A conceptual model of integrated anti-risk management of conflicts of a scientific project in the context of behavioral economics is proposed, built on the basis of the "Change Management Iceberg" model. The management of scientific projects has been further developed through the integration of methodologies: project management, the theory of stakeholders, risk management, HR management, conflict management, and behavioral economics. A conceptual scheme of integrated anti-risk management of conflicts of a scientific project in behavioral economics has been developed, which allows a project manager to manage uncertainties (risks, conflicts, factors of behavioral economics). Research refers to the project management methodology and improves it by integrating the processes of risk, conflict, and behavioral economics management into one process. The main goal of the study is to reduce and eliminate all negative consequences in a scientific project, to complete it within the approved budget, terms, and a certain quality.

Scheduling Tool

Production planning is clearly needed in all manufacturing systems, and that is also the case for job shops. When dealing with a small number of products or jobs repetitive scheduling becomes a major issue. In this situation, the same tasks are performed sequentially and repeated from job to job. To help with this problem, a resource scheduling tool is developed that would work alongside Microsoft Project. This tool should act as a front end to Microsoft Project and allow for the creation of a schedule with a minimal amount of work for the scheduling manager. Due to the repetitive nature of production processes, the tool should be able to eliminate most of the manual scheduling currently done exclusively in MS Project.

In the last decade, there has been a tendency of profitability reduction of the companies implementing transport construction projects in the Russian Federation. One of the main factors affecting negatively on the market of transport construction, is the imperfection of the current system of pricing in construction oriented to minimize expenditures of the state customer and doesn't cover the estimated contractor cost risks: rising prices for basic construction materials, machines and equipment, increasing in overhead for contract administration, increasing of the credit load and the cost of bank support and project insurance. In this regard, the search for an effective method of project management in the transport construction, using modern technologies of resource scheduling and control of construction projects implementation, is particularly relevant. At the same time, an important task is to select a project management methodology that is optimal for the labor costs of the company's engineering and technical employees. In the article the authors propose the detailed algorithm for developing and maintaining resource construction schedules in the domestic Spider Project program. Features of preliminary study of project documentation, a transfer of corporate reference books to the schedule, a formation of a Work Breakdown Structure, a planning of the labor resources, construction machines and equipment, materials, and cost components are given. A calculating method for the complexity of construction works based on the formation of technological cards is proposed. The possibilities of the Spider Project program in terms of monitoring of the construction schedule execution in the form of accounting for actual work performed, comparing schedule versions and generating plan-fact reports for analyzing the construction progress and making management decisions, are considered.

Abstract Memory consumption of de Bruijn graphs is often prohibitive. Most de Bruijn graph-based assemblers reduce the complexity by compacting paths into single vertices, but this is challenging as it requires the uncompacted de Bruijn graph to be available in memory. We present a parallel and memory-efficient algorithm enabling the direct construction of the compacted de Bruijn graph without producing the intermediate uncompacted graph. Bifrost features a broad range of functions, such as indexing, editing, and querying the graph, and includes a graph coloring method that maps each k-mer of the graph to the genomes it occurs in.

There is a wealth of knowledge concerning conflict management and its resolution in the workplace, however there is a dearth of information relating to conflict management and its resolution in engineering project management. This paper set out to examine the reality of conflict management in engineering project management in New Zealand. This was achieved through a review of credible literature sources and the completion of a pilot study to gain subject matter expert perspectives. The research suggests that conflicts can be destructive, resulting in anxiety and strong emotional responses leading to reflexive reactions including avoidance, aggression, fight, hostility and a breakdown in communications and relationships. Findings indicate that managing a project structure is synonymous with handling conflict and these disagreements can be detrimental to the success of a project. The initial results suggest that a number of factors act as drivers of conflict in engineering projects in New Zealand. These drivers are: power, personality, group dynamics and organisationculture. The conflict resolution tools cited as being widely used for engineering projects are collaboration and negotiation. The paper also offers recommendations for future research.

In this paper we present an efficient algorithm for automatically finding the correspondence between pairs of stereo micrographs, the key step in forming a stereo image. The computation burden in this problem is solving for the optimal mapping and transformation between the two micrographs. In this paper, we present a sieve algorithm for efficiently estimating the transformation and correspondence.In a sieve algorithm, a sequence of stages gradually reduce the number of transformations and correspondences that need to be examined, i.e., the analogy of sieving through the set of mappings with gradually finer meshes until the answer is found. The set of sieves is derived from an image model, here a planar graph that encodes the spatial organization of the features. In the sieve algorithm, the graph represents the spatial arrangement of objects in the image. The algorithm for finding the correspondence restricts its attention to the graph, with the correspondence being found by a combination of graph matchings, point set matching and geometric invariants.
