Autonomous Agent Contracts for Adaptive Supply Chains
Abstract: This paper proposes a novel agent-driven, on-chain coordination layer for manufacturer–distributor–retailer handoffs that automates release, transfer, receipt, and state validation across the supply network. This approach combines belief–desire–intention (BDI) agents with narrowly scoped smart contracts to capture role responsibilities, capacity checks, and escalation policies. It aims to enhance conformance, traceability, and cycle-time reliability without relying on central intermediaries. This proof of concept links supply chain states—such as production-ready, packaged, listed, …

Analysis of Cost and Schedule Performance of Residential Building Projects by EVM Technique
Abstract: Earned value management (EVM) is a project control technique which provides a quantitative measure of work performance by cost and schedule monitoring. It involves a crediting (earning) of budget as scheduled work is performed. The EVM technique is a proven method to evaluate work progress in order to identify schedule slippage and areas of budget overruns. Value earned for a given task is computed as budgeted cost of work performed …
