Scope/Description:

The world has never been exposed to such a paradigm shift prior to the emerging industry 4.0 revolutionthe governing foundations for shaping and delivering progressive changes for addressing issues embracing Society Knowledge Economy and People. Scientific advances and innovative technologies in Architecture Engineering Construction are key factors in this process the tenets of which can help the countries move towards developing smarter and more sustainable communities. In this respect the nine pillars supporting Industry 4.0 are widely accepted by the research and practice communities to include the integration of VirtualAugmentedMixed Reality XRVRARMR where mainstream Building Information Management in particular is seen as a vehicle for addressing such issues as industry fragmentation valuedriven solutions decision making client engagement and designprocess flow to name but a few. Advanced Simulation Computer Vision Internet of Things IoT Blockchain Machine Learning Deep Learning and Linked Data all provide immense opportunities for dealing with these challenges more importantly perhaps provide real tangible evidencedbased innovative solutions that until now have never been possible before. These technologies are perceived as the true enablers of future practice. Exemplars from other industries such as automotive aerospace and oil and gas have provided showcase solutions using advanced technologies. However until only relatively recently AEC has only just started to recognise terms such as golden key and golden thread as part of BIM processes and workflows.
