Various smart applications are needed to address complex problems in construction falling under the broad categories of safety at work, construction site management, management of resources, waste and assets and construction progress monitoring. Fog computing emerges as a new computing paradigm for Edge-to-Cloud computing that integrates Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and Blockchain technologies to facilitate the development and operation of smart applications. However, a comprehensive methodology that applies Fog computing to construction projects is currently missing. In our work, we use the novel DECENTER Fog Computing and Brokerage Platform to address requirements for flexible use of AI methods in construction projects and develop a relevant methodology. Evaluation is performed through all application development phases at a real construction site in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Testing results show that the use of Fog computing contributes to high response rates, privacy and security when processing sensitive worker and company data.

需要各种智能应用程序来解决建筑中的复杂问题，这些问题涉及工作安全，建筑工地管理，资源，废物和资产管理以及施工进度监控等大类。雾计算作为边缘到云计算的一种新的计算范例而出现，它集成了物联网（IoT），人工智能（AI）和区块链技术，以促进智能应用程序的开发和运行。但是，目前缺少将雾计算应用于建筑项目的综合方法。在我们的工作中，我们使用新颖的DECENTER Fog计算和经纪平台来解决在建筑项目中灵活使用AI方法的要求，并开发相关的方法。评估是在斯洛文尼亚卢布尔雅那的一个实际施工现场的所有应用程序开发阶段进行的。测试结果表明，在处理敏感的员工和公司数据时，使用Fog计算有助于提高响应速度，隐私和安全性。
