Sinpa: Supporting the automation of construction planning. Expert Systems with Applications, 190:116149, 2022.1873-679310.1016/j.eswa.2021.116149https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14352/94875We present SINPA: an integrated framework to support construction site planners. The most basic functionality of our tool provides a user-friendly framework to represent causality relations (precedence and parallelism) between the different tasks conforming a project. SINPA strongly relies on a constraint solver and makes an intensive use of constraints. SINPA automatically studies optimisations of the original planning, recomputes the solutions and provides recommendations in an intuitive way so that the planners can modify their original plan. It is important to emphasise that the users of SINPA do not need to work with or understand Constraint Programming.engjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.eswa.2021.116149open accessConstraint programming, Construction sites planning, Tools to support projects developmentInformática (Informática)1203 Ciencia de Los Ordenadores
