... The workshop participants concluded that these lost data could potentially be used to improve the building process by providing the information needed to improve the performance and responsiveness of future designs, and bring about a reduction in the life-cycle costs associated with new facilities. Workshop participants recommended that efforts be made to explore the development of a computer-based integrated data base that would be available at all stages in the life of a building project.

... The 1985 workshop focused on the interface between the design/engineering phase and the construction phase. The challenge presented to workshop participants was to use the requirements for an integrated data base developed in previous Woods Hole Workshops to determine the data requirements and the conceptual representation of all data that pass through the data base.

... THE 1986 WOODS HOLE WORKSHOP The 1986 workshop, the subject of this report, involved 42 individuals invited by the Building Research Board and the Committee on Integrated Data Base Development to the National Academy of Sciences' Woods Hole Study Center from June 15 to 20, 1986. Workshop participants were invited from industry, government, and academia; they represented the building industry as well as computer fields appropriate to this effort.
