Outcomes

The results of the ACCORD project include deliverables such as scientific papers, other studies, and software solutions. These products come from the collaborative work of many researchers and experts. The main goal is to advance knowledge and technological innovation. The papers and studies provide a solid theoretical and empirical basis, while the software solutions offer practical tools and applications. Together, these results contribute not only to scientific progress but also have a direct impact on industry and society by providing new technologies and useful knowledge.

Software solutions

Throughout the ACCORD project, various software solutions are developed to address specific needs and challenges identified during the research. These software developments are designed to be open source, making them accessible to a wide audience.

Open-source software can be freely used, modified, and distributed, encouraging collaboration and continuous improvement by the community. These software solutions are practical tools that can be implemented in both industry and research settings to streamline workflows, enhance productivity, and improve overall efficiency.

AEC3PO

The Architecture, Engineering, Construction, Compliance Checking and Permitting Ontology (AEC3PO) is an ontology developed in the context of the Automated Compliance Checks for Construction, Renovation or Demolition Works (ACCORD) project, which is a Horizon European project that aims to digitalise permitting and compliance processes.

Deliverables

These are comprehensive reports and documents that detail the progress and findings of the ACCORD project. They serve as official records of the project’s achievements and are often made available to the public to ensure transparency. Deliverables include public progress reports that outline the milestones reached, challenges encountered, and strategies employed to overcome obstacles. These reports provide stakeholders with a clear understanding of the project’s development and its impact on the field. 

Scientific papers

These publications appear in prestigious academic journals and present the research results generated during the ACCORD project.
Each article undergoes a rigorous peer review process, in which other experts in the field evaluate the methodology, data and conclusions. This process ensures the quality and credibility of the research.
Scientific articles are essential for disseminating new knowledge, as they allow other scientists and experts to build on the project’s results, thereby fostering innovation and discovery.

Other studies

Beyond scientific articles, the ACCORD project produces a variety of additional studies that delve deeper into specific topics. These may include technical reports, which provide detailed analysis and technical insights into particular aspects of the project.

Books and book chapters are also part of this output, offering comprehensive coverage of broader themes and more extensive exploration of related subjects. These studies are valuable resources for academics, researchers, and practitioners seeking in-depth information and understanding of the project’s contributions.
