Abstract

In multidisciplinary engineering projects the effective and considerate propagation of changes is essential to ensure a consistent view of the project and to minimize defects and risks. To achieve this, the changes coming from one discipline need to be communicated and coordinated with the participants of the disciplines where those changes are relevant. In this paper, we introduce a user-centric context-adaptive notification manager (UCAN), which makes use of modelling techniques at design and runtime to derive effective change notifications that are delivered in a considerate manner. We present a prototype implementation of UCAN based on industry use cases and discuss its benefits and limitations based on the feedback from industry partner domain experts.
