TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the authors' experiences in building tools to support project-based learning, and conclude that technology can play an important role in supporting projectbased learning.
Abstract: This paper describes the authors' experiences in building tools to support project-based learning. They briefly describe their successes and failures in three areas: team management and collaboration; supporting reflection; and providing information in project-based form. Their approach combines insights on learning from cognitive science with an appreciation for the practical challenges raised by focusing on projects in a class. Based on their experiences, they conclude that technology can play an important role in supporting project-based learning.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the reasons why virtual teams are used for project delivery and the advantages of using virtual teams and the benefits of virtual teams to the client and the project delivery organisation.
Abstract: This work will describe the reasons why virtual teams are used for project delivery. The advantages of using virtual teams and the benefits of virtual teams to the client and the project delivery organisation, i.e., the contractor or consultant will be discussed. The use of virtual project teams for project delivery, especially for international or global projects, has definite advantages and benefits. However, in order to ensure successful project delivery by virtual teams, the prospective project client needs to have a clear understanding of the environment in which the virtual team can succeed and procure the project appropriately.

TL;DR: In this paper, a major project is under construction to increase the capability of the 500 kV transmission system between Arizona and Southern California, USA, which includes two 388 MVAr SVCs, which are needed primarily to stabilize power oscillations across the interface.
Abstract: A major project is under construction to increase the capability of the 500 kV transmission system between Arizona and Southern California, USA. This project includes two 388 MVAr SVCs, which are needed primarily to stabilize power oscillations across the interface. The control system for these SVCs includes some new concepts to accomplish this stabilizing influence. This paper describes the important features of this control system, including the main design considerations.

TL;DR: The authors discusses the Software Project Manager (SPM), which has been prototyped in Interference Corporation's Automated Reasoning Tool (ART) on Symbolics artificial-intelligence workstations, and describes the knowledge representation strategy used to implement this conceptual model.
Abstract: The authors discusses the Software Project Manager (SPM), which has been prototyped in Interference Corporation's Automated Reasoning Tool (ART) on Symbolics artificial-intelligence workstations. They present an overview of the management model underlying SPM and define the essential concepts and relationships needed to model the project-management domain. They describe the knowledge representation strategy used to implement this conceptual model. They illustrate the power of using conceptual model-based reasoning in building intelligent decision-support systems for the project management domain. >

TL;DR: Two models of technology and innovation management that are relevant to all managers, not just technology managers are described that can be used to monitor progress and manage projects and integrate technology management into a multi-disciplinary business context.
Abstract: The paper describes two models of technology and innovation management that are relevant to all managers, not just technology managers The first model puts innovation management into a learning organisation framework and can be used to monitor progress and manage projects It can also be used to evaluate the implementation and improvement of technology management within an organisation, and across virtual organisations and networks The second model integrates technology management into a multi-disciplinary business context and treats it and the business holistically This model is compatible with business process thinking and regards innovation as an ongoing technology and business management responsibility rather than a discrete event or project The two models are complementary but can be used independently This paper discusses their educational value and practical application
