Summary: ndustry observers agree that most construction practitioners do not full exploit the state of the art. We concur in this general observation. Further, we have acted by directing this series of works on Construction Management and Engineering to the continuing education and reference needs of today's practitioners. Our design is inspired by the burgeoning technologies of systems engineering, modern management, information *systems, and industrial engineering. We believe that the latest developments in these areas will serve to close the state of the art gap if they are astutely considered by management and knowledgeably applied in operations with personnel, equipment, and materials.
