ntelligent systems are becoming main parts in more and more building engineering with the development of economy in China. It is given in this paper that the focal points in supervising intelligent systems of building engineering. Quality control procedures are described in detail, which can ensure that the intelligent system can realize the design requirements and meet the industry standards in the construction, system commissioning and testing. The summary of supervision in this paper comes from a large number of famous building engineering in Beijing, such as the National Stadium, ZhongGuancun Science and Technology Square, Beijing Hospital, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, etc.

Nepal, a landlocked country between China and India, is developing disaster and emergency medicine. In 2007, the Nepal Disaster and Emergency Medicine (NADEM) Center was formed with the aim of developing this specialty in Nepal. The first hospital was built in July 1889. It wasn't until 1988 that a Disaster Response Team was organized following a stampede incident in the national stadium in Kathmandu. The country often experiences disaster and emergency situations due to geographic and natural hazards and political tensions.In 1984, the Institute of Medicine, Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital created emergency services with general practitioners (GPs) directing and providing services. Since then, almost all emergency services of different hospitals are run by GPs with house officers, nurses, and paramedics. There still is a lack of training and proper management, and limited equipment and infrastructure to provide needed disaster and emergency services to the people. The NADEM Center is developing coordination objectives between different emergency service providers to organize ways of service providing. This will be done through NADEM's continuing medical education and publication of Journal of Nepal Disaster and Emergency Medicine (J-NADEM) and NewsHealth; coordination among emergency medical services (prehospital), in-hospital services, and disaster and critical care medicine; and planning and implementation of different research, training, workshops, seminars, and conferences in disaster and emergency medicine with cooperation from the world. The NADEM Center will develop International Institute of Disaster and Emergency Medicine.

Although the infrastructure development projects under PPP operation which can fill the funding gap as a result of increasing demand for infrastructure development and reduced public sector funding capacity have been practiced since the late 80s, the $560 million Bird’s Nest (National Stadium) is the first stadium project in China using this procurement method. This project is generally considered as a successful case by most of the practioners and experts despite the operation right transfer occurred in 2009. Compared to the use of PPP in other field such as transportation, power generation and waste management, development of sports facilities for mega sport event with this model has its own unique features, risks and opportunities. This research identifies and analyzes the risks and opportunities through case study of the Bird’s Nest project. A survey and several interviews are conducted to solicit expert opinions from experienced practitioners and experts. According to the analysis, government behavior related risks and project level risks are found to be two groups of risks which are quite different for major sports facilities projects and general PPP projects.
