Working Group 1

Multiple View Modelling of LCSA

Leader: Dr Mélanie Despeiss
Co-Leader: Ms. Līga Brasliņa

Aim

This working group will develop a multiple-view modelling methodology for LCSA.

Tasks

  • Task 1.1

    Systematically review existing multiple-view modelling techniques, which were successfully applied in construction and manufacturing industries.

  • Task 1.2

    Investigate the characterizing methods of business models and abstract their critical features emphasized by both large companies and SMEs.

  • Task 1.3

    Establish the mapping mechanism between critical features of business models and existing/new functional units which enable the proposed multiple-view modelling techniques to conform to ISO 14040 standards.

  • Task 1.4

    Exemplify the developed technique with business cases.

  • Task 1.5

    Coordinate the joint publications.

Deliverables

  1. Organize annual workshops for multiple-view modelling technique of LCSA investigation (M1.5-M1.8) and generate workshop reports (D1.5-D1.8)
  2. Coordinate a STSM in Year 2-4 respectively for industrial requirements collection and knowledge transferring, and complete STSM report (D1.9-D1.11)
  3. Draft a joint publication in Year 2-4 respectively (D1.12-D.1.14)
  4. Complete a Master thesis in Year 2-4 respectively (D1.15-D.1.17)
  5. Create the multiple view modelling guideline for business cases in Year 4 (D1.18)
