ontology
An ontology is a set of rules that make it possible to link data on a semantic level. Means the unstructured, semi-structured data can be read and encoded by computers.

Lean construction
Lean Construction is the method of project management aiming to reduce waste on a project and improving the efficiency and quality of produced work [1]. The aim to reduce overproduction, to minimise handling, storage and transportation, or to remove processes that do not add value. Improvement of processes to reduce waiting times or rework, and […]
Target Value Design
Target Value Designs (TVD) focus is on reducing the cost of a project without reducing the quality of the end product or extending the timetable. The team sets a cost target for the design and construction, which is usually the current estimate. TVD aims to achieve this goal by defining costs as a design limitation […]
Set-Based Design
Set-Based Design commonly referred to as a set-based design innovation or set-based concurrent engineering. It is a product development approach where teams consider a wide range of design alternatives (a “set”) and systematically reduce the set to a final, often superior choice.[1] Set-based design is not a new concept, but Toyota calls it set-based concurrent […]
Collaborative Design
Working with different teams is probably the most difficult part of the design process. It is important to note that a collaborative design process is not about someone else creating the entire design solution, but about establishing a process and creating a space where different people and different perspectives that are valuable to the outcome […]
smart building
The term “smart building” was originally introduced by the European Union in the Energy Performance of Buildings Directive (EPBD)[1] as one of the main enablers of the future of the built environment, particularly the building sector. Smart buildings are able to manage their energy generation, performance and demand depended on asset use and the internal and environmental […]
Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT)
The industrial IoT (IIoT) forms an integral part of Industry 4.0, and smart manufacturing refers to interconnected sensors, and other input/output devices linked to manufacturing applications, supporting industrial automation and digitalisation. The secure wired and wireless connectivity, the modular framework allows flexible production and adaptation of production lines responding to pull requests.
Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operation (AECO)
Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Operation usually expressed as acronym AECO is an extension of the Architecture, Engineering, Construction (AEC). Both terms are related to the entire built environment, not just buildings. The AECO include the operational phase of an asset, include all stakeholders involved in operations maintenance of the built environment.
Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC)
Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC). All necessary heating, ventilation air-conditioning and specialty equipment, including air distribution ducts for supply, return, and ventilation and exhaust ducts, including control system, registers, diffusers, grills etc.
Equipment Clearance
Equipment Clearance shall be modelled for use in interference management and maintenance access requirements. It is the minimum space adjacent to the equipment required to allow access for maintenance, installation or correct operation
