The methods for measuring and evaluating the extent of skill transfer from the virtual training program to real world performance are also discussed. Equipment operator training approaches in the construction industry typically include both offsite training and on-the-job training. Current practice is predominantly limited to offsite programs that provide novices with limited hands-on experience with real working conditions, thus resulting in inefficient performance by the novice operator when he/she comes to the jobsite.

Such semantic description also enables agents to intelligently synthesize the content from Mobile and Semantic Web-Based Delivery of Context-Aware Information 19 multiple information sources, on an ad hoc and on demand basis. Similar approaches to semantic description of resources have been adopted in other projects such as Mummy (2003), Artiste (2003) and OTK (2002).
