A logistics and scheduling microcomputer system for construction robotics implementation has been developed within the framework of the Construction Robotic Equipment Management System (CREMS) at Purdue University. This paper addresses the main procedures and software developed to effectively manage multiple robots in diverse construction sites. The current version of the software is used with HyperCard, QuickBASIC, and Think‐Pascal on an Apple Macintosh microcomputer. This paper presents an example microcomputer application to optimal robot implementation assignment decision support for use with multiple concurrent construction projects.
