Abstract
ary This special issue of Information Technology in Construction is dedicated to exploring the future of construction in the context of digital transformation. The inspiration for this edition stemmed from the 22nd International Conference on Construction Applications of Virtual Reality (CONVR 2022), which was held at Chung-Ang University in Seoul, South Korea. The overarching theme for CONVR 2022 was “The future of construction in the context of digital transformation and decarbonization”. With over 200 participants attending in person and many more joining online, the conference served as a platform for researchers to present innovative work on VR/AR, BIM, digital twins, IoT, artificial intelligence, construction automation, circular economy, and sustainability in the construction industry. The wealth of knowledge shared during the conference prompted us to invite the authors of outstanding papers to expand their contributions for publication in this special issue. The editors hope that this collection of articles will offer a glimpse into the current state of research on digitalization in the construction industry, and that it will serve as a valuable reference source for further research.
