ABSTRACT

An information integrator would work along-

side traditional software applications to aggregate

all of the project information into a single project

data set, and allow users to explore all of the project

data (particularly the interrelationships between

different data views) in support of specific work

tasks through user-configurable views of the inte-

grated project data. This paper presents a technical

framework (conceptual design) for an information

integrator for project management information,

call the Unified Construction Project Manage-

ment Arena (UCPMA). The approach addresses

integration at three layers of system architecture:

the data layer, the application logic layer, and the

presentation layer. In addition to the technical

approaches, the prototype of the UCPMA system

has described.
