The Impact

Based on the background of the Ministry of Finance’s concern about the issue of goodwill impairment and the frequent outbreak of goodwill impairment risk, this paper analyzes the difference in the proportion of goodwill impairment during the valuation adjustment mechanism ( VAM ) period and after the VAM period, with a view to providing theoretical and data reference suggestions for the standard-setters and regulators on preventing goodwill impairment risk and improving the relevant regime of VAM, and also providing theoretical support and risk warning for stakeholders in M&A. Combining the normative research method and the empirical research method, this paper takes the merger and acquisition event completed by the A-share listed companies of civil engineering construction industry in 2014-2016 as the initial sample, and studies the difference in the proportion of goodwill impairment during the VAM period and after the VAM period. The conclusion of this paper is: In the merger and acquisition transaction with VAM, the proportion of goodwill impairment of listed companies after the VAM period are greater than that of the VAM period.

Engineering Construction Project

In modern times, information technology developes very quickly. Architecture engineering construction industry has gradually been revolutionized from traditional ways to technology-based methods. As the engineering construction project is very complex ,advanced tools are required to assist finishing a project. Building information modeling is disseminated to construction industry ,as an instrument to help collaboration and co-working. The practical effectiveness of BIM is mainly in architecture design, while BIM can be used as a tool in other parts of construction industry such as virtual construction ,time-dependent control and maintainance management and even the lifecycle management.This paper mainly presents five main parts and functions designed of information system based on BIM, and analyses the strengths of the system .It aims to demonstrate how engineering project overcome traditional barriers and physical distribution with the development of information technology across the whole construction lifecycle.

This special issue of ITCON brought together ten papers on Construction 4.0 related topics. These papers are drawn from papers presented at the 20th International Conference on Construction Applications of Virtual Reality (CONVR 2021) held at Teesside University, Middlesbrough TS1 3JN, the UK, in October 2020. CONVR is one of the world-leading conferences in the areas of Virtual Reality, augmented reality and building information modelling. Each year, more than 100 participants from all around the globe meet to discuss and exchange the latest developments and applications of virtual technologies in the architectural, engineering, construction and operation industry (AECO). The conference is also known for having a unique blend of participants from both academia and industry. The overarching theme for CONVR2020 was "Enabling the development and implementation of Digital Twins."
