Abstract

State of the art research in Construction IT reveals that integration has been achieved, mostly, on static models that define the structure of shared information in the form of files or databases. This paper advocates that integration should be made through frameworks that define the semantic relationships between the interfaces of separate distributed components (and the way to make those relationships evolve in the course of a project/process). Based on a requirements analysis of industrial partners, the OSMOS specification was made in the form of a set of information models and a set of required services packaged in the form of an OSMOS API. This paper focused on: email based communication service, document cross-referencing/information management service, virtual enterprise manager, and information browser.
