[0002] Histogram is a common data visualization tool, widely used in data analysis and project management. In engineering project management, resource allocation and scheduling is one of the key factors for project success. Traditional project management tools mainly rely on tables or manual calculations to track and manage resource usage, which has problems such as low efficiency and difficulty in intuitively displaying resource allocation. Especially in large projects with a wide variety of resources, it is difficult for managers to control the overall situation of resource usage in real time.

[0035] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0036] Based on further analysis and research of existing technical problems, this application recognizes that existing technical managers often need to manually input data to understand whether resources meet project requirements, and cannot optimize resource allocation in a timely manner, which may lead to resource waste or construction progress delays. By obtaining the quota requirements of each type of resource in the project and generating a histogram of resource requirements; according to the construction machinery efficiency conversion table, the number of construction machinery that can be allocated every day is calculated; the resource demand histogram is filled with the calculated number of construction machinery to distinguish between the satisfied and unsatisfied parts; when the resource demand is not fully met, a prompt message is generated to prompt the user to adjust resource allocation or increase construction machinery; in response to the user's instructions, the histogram is displayed and the resource allocation is adjusted in real time to optimize resource utilization. Through a visualized, automated and intelligent resource management process, the management of project resources becomes more efficient and accurate. Its significant technical effect is that it can dynamically display the demand and allocation of resources in real time, reduce human intervention and calculation errors, and ensure the smooth progress of the project.

[0037] The resource histogram displays resource usage in a graphical way, allowing project managers to more intuitively understand resource allocation and consumption, thereby making more accurate decisions. Optimize resource allocation: By analyzing the resource histogram, you can find bottlenecks and waste in resource use, thereby optimizing resource allocation and improving resource utilization efficiency. Improve project management level: As an important tool for project management, the resource histogram can improve the standardization and scientific level of project management, and improve the efficiency and quality of project management.

[0038] By obtaining the quota requirements of each type of resource in the project, the system can obtain the demand distribution of project resources in real time and accurately. This provides a data basis for project managers to help them avoid over-allocation or under-allocation of resources when formulating resource allocation plans. Traditional resource management methods usually rely on manual statistics or spreadsheet tools, which are prone to omissions and errors when processing large amounts of complex data. The automated resource acquisition steps of this technical solution can significantly reduce human errors and greatly improve data processing efficiency. By calculating the number of construction machinery that can be allocated each day according to the construction machinery efficiency conversion table and displaying it intuitively on a histogram, managers can clearly see the relationship between project progress and resource consumption. This feature solves the problems of opacity and untimely resource scheduling in traditional resource management. The actual resource demand of the project changes dynamically as the project progresses. The use of this technical solution can help managers better respond to changes in the project progress and adjust resource allocation in a timely manner.

[0039] In addition, the color changes in the histogram provide an intuitive feedback mechanism. By distinguishing between the parts of the requirements that have been met and the parts that have not been met, managers can understand the resource allocation at a glance. If the quota requirements of certain resources are not met, the system will automatically generate prompts to prompt users to adjust the allocation plan or increase construction machinery to ensure maximum resource utilization. This intelligent prompt mechanism greatly improves the response speed of project management, allowing managers to make corresponding adjustments at the early stage of the problem, avoiding project delays or cost increases due to resource shortages or surpluses. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0040] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of a process flow of a project resource management method based on a resource histogram provided by an embodiment of the present application;

[0041] Figure 2 FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the internal structure of a computer device in one embodiment. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0042] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0043] In the description of this application: unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more. The terms "first", "second", "third", etc. in this application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to, and do not have special meanings in terms of technical connotations (for example, they should not be understood as emphasizing the importance or order, etc.). Expressions such as "including", "comprising", "having", etc. also mean "not limited to" (certain units, components, materials, steps, etc.).

[0044] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a project resource management method based on resource histogram is provided, comprising the following steps:

[0045] Obtain the quota requirements for each type of resource in the project and generate a histogram of resource requirements;

[0046] Calculate the number of construction machines that can be allocated every day according to the construction machine efficiency conversion table;

[0047] Fill the resource demand histogram with the calculated number of construction machines and distinguish between the satisfied and unsatisfied parts;

[0048] When resource requirements are not fully met, a prompt message is generated to prompt the user to adjust resource allocation or increase construction machinery;

[0049] In response to user instructions, the histogram is displayed and resource allocation is adjusted in real time to optimize resource utilization.

[0050] This embodiment provides a project resource management method based on a resource histogram. The core technical effect of this method is to intuitively display the dynamic changes in resource requirements and actual allocation situations in a project in a graphical manner, thereby significantly improving resource management efficiency and decision-making accuracy.

[0051] First, by obtaining the quota requirements for each type of resource in the project, the system can obtain the demand distribution of project resources in real time and accurately. This provides a data basis for project managers to help them avoid over-allocation or under-allocation of resources when formulating resource allocation plans. Traditional resource management methods usually rely on manual statistics or spreadsheet tools, which are prone to omissions and errors when processing large amounts of complex data. The automated resource acquisition steps of this technical solution can significantly reduce human errors and greatly improve data processing efficiency.

[0052] Secondly, by calculating the number of construction machines that can be allocated every day according to the construction machine efficiency conversion table and displaying it intuitively on the histogram, managers can clearly see the relationship between project progress and resource consumption. This feature solves the problems of opacity and untimely resource scheduling in traditional resource management. The actual resource demand of the project changes dynamically as the project progresses. The use of this technical solution can help managers better cope with changes in project progress and adjust resource allocation in a timely manner.

[0053] In addition, the color changes in the histogram provide an intuitive feedback mechanism. By distinguishing between the parts of the requirements that have been met and the parts that have not been met, managers can understand the resource allocation at a glance. If the quota requirements of certain resources are not met, the system will automatically generate prompts to prompt users to adjust the allocation plan or increase construction machinery to ensure maximum resource utilization. This intelligent prompt mechanism greatly improves the response speed of project management, allowing managers to make corresponding adjustments at the early stage of the problem, avoiding project delays or cost increases due to resource shortages or surpluses.

[0054] In general, the method of this embodiment makes the management of project resources more efficient and accurate through a visualized, automated and intelligent resource management process. Its significant technical effect is that it can dynamically display the demand and allocation of resources in real time, reduce human intervention and calculation errors, and ensure the smooth progress of the project.

[0055] In this embodiment, the horizontal axis of the histogram is time, and the vertical axis is the number of resources. Different colors are used to distinguish the status of resource allocation, including satisfied resource requirements and unsatisfied resource requirements.

[0056] The introduction of the timeline in this embodiment allows managers to intuitively see the distribution of resources throughout the project cycle, which is of great significance for project scheduling and planning. In complex engineering projects, the demand for resources is not evenly distributed, but changes dynamically over time. Without a timeline, it is difficult for managers to assess the peak and trough periods of resource demand. Through the timeline design of this method, managers can clearly see when to increase resource input and when to reduce resources, which provides an important reference for the smooth execution of the project.

[0057] In this embodiment, the prompt information indicates the unmet resource needs by means of color changes or warning boxes, and suggests that the user adjust the allocated mechanical resources or modify the construction plan.

[0058] This embodiment uses color changes or warning boxes to inform users of unmet resource needs and provides corresponding adjustment suggestions. This design significantly improves the intelligence and interactivity of the system, helping users to handle problems more efficiently and accurately during resource allocation.

[0059] In this embodiment, the resource allocation gives priority to the quota resources in the critical path, and according to the construction machinery efficiency conversion table, gives priority to mechanical equipment with a conversion coefficient close to 1 for allocation;

[0060] When resources exceed demand, the corresponding part in the histogram is marked with different colors, and the user is prompted to reduce the allocated mechanical resources.

[0061] In this embodiment, the resource allocation includes allocating construction machinery according to the order of occurrence time of the quota resources, and giving priority to the allocation of key quota resources.

[0062] In this embodiment, the resource histogram generation module also includes a function for dynamically updating the histogram, so as to adjust the display content of the histogram in real time according to the actual construction progress and resource consumption.

[0063] In this embodiment, the histogram includes a reference line for indicating a threshold value of resource demand. When resource allocation is insufficient, the reference line is displayed in a warning color.

[0064] In one embodiment, currently histograms are often used in construction organization plans, such as resource histograms in P6 plans, and are rarely used in cost estimation software.

[0065] This embodiment uses actual construction machinery to fill the budget machinery histogram to intuitively show whether the budget machinery demand is met.

[0066] This embodiment includes: a resource histogram function, which displays the mechanical resources allocated for each type of quota resource demand. The histogram is displayed according to the quota demand of the resource, and can be clicked to allocate. The mechanical resources are automatically allocated to the quota resources according to the data in the mechanical resource efficiency conversion table, and the allocated histogram is displayed. According to certain rules, the quota resources are sorted in order, and the quota resources on the critical path are allocated first, and then the mechanical resources are allocated to other quota resources according to the order of occurrence time. When allocating mechanical resources to a specific quota resource, it is necessary to give priority to resources with a conversion coefficient close to "1", and then select resources with the lowest variable cost.

[0067] After allocating specific equipment in the equipment configuration plan to the quota requirements of a certain type of resource, the software automatically generates a mechanical histogram filled with multiple colors. If the equipment configuration plan does not meet the quota resource requirements, the generated histogram does not fill the blue area, and the software prompts to adjust the schedule or add equipment. If the equipment configuration plan exceeds the quota requirements of the resource, it can also be seen from the chart, and then adjust the plan to reduce the equipment.

[0068] The budget machine provides daily demand, which is visually displayed through a histogram;

[0069] The construction machinery establishes a conversion relationship with the budget machinery through the machinery efficiency conversion table, and then uses the histogram filling method to intuitively show whether it meets the needs of the budget machinery.

[0070] As a data visualization tool, histogram is mainly used to display the distribution of data. Through the histogram, we can intuitively see the concentration and dispersion of data and possible outliers. The application of resource histogram can bring many beneficial effects, especially in comparison with existing technologies, its advantages are more significant. The following are some specific effect descriptions:

[0071] Improve the accuracy and efficiency of data analysis:

[0072] Compared with traditional manual or simple statistical methods, resource histograms can present the distribution of data more quickly, allowing analysts to quickly identify key information in the data.

[0073] Using histograms, analysts can accurately determine daily resource usage.

[0074] Specifically, this embodiment includes: drawing a demand histogram according to the budgeted daily demand of the machinery;

[0075] Through calculation, the number of construction machines that can be configured per day for each budgeted machine is obtained;

[0076] Fill the demand histogram with the number of construction machines per day;

[0077] If it is fully covered, it means that the demand for machinery within this budget is met. If it is not fully covered, it means that additional construction machinery is needed.

[0078] First of all, the purpose of the invention of the resource histogram is to help project managers more intuitively understand the allocation and use of project resources. Through the resource histogram, managers can clearly see the planned working time, actual working time and resource availability of resources in each time period, so as to better plan and schedule project resources.

[0079] Specifically, the construction method of the resource histogram usually includes the following steps: first, determine the time cycle and time period division of the project; then, calculate the planned working time of the resources in each time period based on the project schedule and resource requirements; then, based on the actual work situation, update the resource histogram to display the actual working time of the resources; finally, by comparing the planned working time with the actual working time, analyze the efficiency of resource utilization and existing problems.

[0080] In terms of display form, resource histograms usually adopt the form of bar charts, with time as the horizontal axis and resource quantity as the vertical axis, and different resource types or working states are distinguished by bars of different colors. In addition, in order to facilitate comparison and analysis, some auxiliary lines or annotations can be added to the resource histogram, such as horizontal lines for resource available time and warning lines for over-allocation.

[0081] As for the beneficial effects of the present invention, they at least include the following aspects:

[0082] Intuitive: The resource histogram displays resource usage in a graphical way, allowing project managers to understand resource allocation and consumption more intuitively and make more accurate decisions.

[0083] Optimize resource allocation: By analyzing the resource histogram, you can find bottlenecks and waste in resource use, thereby optimizing resource allocation and improving resource utilization efficiency.

[0084] Improve project management level: As an important tool for project management, resource histogram can improve the standardization and scientific level of project management, and improve the efficiency and quality of project management.

[0085] In summary, the invention of the resource histogram aims to provide an intuitive, real-time and effective project resource management tool, through which the level and effect of project management can be improved.
