Concept Maps and wikis were examined as tools that compliment the engineering design process and better facilitate collaboration between geographically dispersed design teams. Concept maps are a visual knowledge capture medium that can be used to promote the understanding of the design problem and in providing an organizational reference for the entire project. Wikis are editable websites that give the users the freedom to add content in any manner, thus providing a project management platform for design teams. This thesis reports on five studies by the author in which concept maps and wikis are used as both tools for the design process as well as collaborative tools in various modes of interaction. Recommendations to improve concept maps and wiki technologies were determined based on the feedback from the participants in these studies. The wiki was used extensively as a project management tool but required some push for the participants to use. The hierarchical layout structure has been shown to be the favoured pattern by participants in the engineering field. Concept maps are also shown to be a clearer visualization tool than another accepted tool, Unified Modelling Language.

In the process of economical shifting to an innovative type of development, implementation of investment and innovation projects, a considerable attention is paid to project management. Project management, like change management, is a well-developed field of management theory. Project management implies the application of certain approaches, the most common are functional and process approaches. The purpose of the article is to consider the application of project management in the context of interaction with functional and process approaches. Critical analysis of scientific views on functional and process management is carried out. It is proved that, in spite of all the advantages of the process approach, it is the functional specialization that provides the least costly execution of individual operations within the business process of the project. The result of both functional and process approaches is the simultaneous design of the organizational structure (functional areas) and the order of interaction within this structure (processes). The interaction and combination of functional and process approaches from the point of view of project management are highlighted. Due to this, a comparative analysis has been made on the criteria: orientation approaches, the interaction of structural units, the principle of constructing the organizational structure, the object of management, the concentration of management, the efficiency of the units, the information exchange, the speed of the adoption of managerial decisions. It is emphasized that in project management considerable attention is paid to effective coordination of work of separate units and strengthening of constructive interaction between functional units involved in the project. Thus, it has been proved that the synergy between functional, process and project approaches ensure manageability, efficiency in decision-making and increasing the efficiency of business processes.

This study considers an efficient way to manage different aspects of a Central Bank’s Data Warehousing project using a custom built data and project management platform. Although the key aspect of managing a Data Warehouse is of course data management, but simultaneously the management of on-going projects related to data integration, website, internal and external human resources, etc. are also important. Data Warehousing in Central Banks is strategically different with other Commercial Bank/Corporate Data Warehousing project in terms of functionality/purpose. A typical Data Warehouse of a Commercial Bank or Corporate body primarily consists of the data generated out of their business operations. On the other hand, a Central Bank collects data from such Commercial Banks, Corporate bodies or Regulatory bodies for regulatory or supervisory purpose along with data on various subject domains allied to central banking compiled within the organisation. As a result, management of such diverse data sources is a major challenge for every central bank. Further, the traditional project management concepts are not applicable as-it-is in the context of a Central Bank. Keeping in view these particularities, and the shortcomings of available commercial project management tools, a comprehensive Information Management System has been built in Reserve Bank of India. The development was done in-house and based on open source platform. The salient features of this system are: (1) An all-in-one monitoring platform to monitor different aspects of Data Warehousing and Data Management project through a single window. (2) Scalability. (3) Cross-platform usability. This study presents the background, design and development of the system in detail.

This paper investigates the current challenges faced by the project managers in creating realistic expectations of customers in dynamic changing project environment which are created by rapid introduction of new unknowns, as they progress. One might say they are more akin to packing boxes of frogs without a cover, setting each thing right before a new challenge is faced. The difficulties posed by these projects are identified and the literature is reviewed for suitable approaches. Why do projects fail and what more is critical to the success of project? All projects are conceived with a vision to satisfy certain needs of the business. Hence, the beneficiary of these needs become key stakeholder. Appropriate participation of this key stakeholder in steering the project ensures the success of the project. Also businesses are impacted by competition and changing market place resulting in skewed expectation management. Managing expectations enhances the success of the project immensely. Now, goal of the project plays a pivotal role and hence respecting it, is an important task, in project management. Project governance is an important aspect which needs to change according to the requirements and requires a dynamic approach rather than a ‘rule book approach’.

At present, many domestic industries don’t have perfect operation and maintenance management systems for their IT platform. Most of the daily maintenance work is passive response after the problem occurred rather than discovery in advance, which will bring the potential risks to IT system running smoothly. Therefore it is necessary to monitor and manage the existing IT core equipment, to improve the security and stability of the core production and enhance the satisfaction of business department. In addition, through the establishment of an association between centralized monitoring and process management platform, the system standardizes the operational work, and improves work efficiency.Maintenance management system based on Tivoli[1] is mainly to complete the monitoring and management of the IT infrastructure, used in finance, electric power, chemical and other industries, which includes room infrastructure, storage, networks, systems, databases and middleware. On one hand, the system centralizes event management platform integrates events from various aspects of the IT infrastructure, takes a rich deal and then provides intuitive monitoring for operational management. Moreover it integrates process management platform so as to complete creating work orders, processing and other operations. On the other hand, the system will integrate the monitoring results of existing business into the monitoring interface, and implements IT knowledge sharing.

Abstract Managing the design process of teams has been shown to considerably improve problem-solving behaviors and resulting final outcomes. Automating this activity presents significant opportunities in delivering interventions that dynamically adapt to the state of a team in order to reap the most impact. In this work, an Artificial Intelligent (AI) agent is created to manage the design process of engineering teams in real time, tracking features of teams' actions and communications during a complex design and path-planning task with multidisciplinary team members. Teams are also placed under the guidance of human process managers for comparison. Regarding outcomes, teams perform equally as well under both types of management, with trends towards even superior performance from the AI-managed teams. The managers' intervention strategies and team perceptions of those strategies are also explored, illuminating some intriguing similarities. Both the AI and human process managers focus largely on communication-based interventions, though differences start to emerge in the distribution of interventions across team roles. Furthermore, team members perceive the interventions from the both the AI and human manager as equally relevant and helpful, and believe the AI agent to be just as sensitive to the needs of the team. Thus, the overall results show that the AI manager agent introduced in this work is able to match the capabilities of humans, showing potential in automating the management of a complex design process.
