The main goal of graphical modelling is to communicate information clearly and effectively through graphical means. Little research has been undertaken in the domain of construction scheduling. It can be noted that there is no standard graphics protocol; therefore, it is up to each individual planner to set his or her own standard. This paper develops a new chronographical conceptual framework that describes all the elements required to perform construction operations, their processes, their logical constraints and their association and organisational models.The protocol studies the suitable visual parameters and their associated values in order to define a standard graphical presentation using shapes, sketches, codes, text, textures and colours. This protocol aims to overcome the current difficulties with graphical visualisation of the considerable amount of data needed for effective planning and to increase the effectiveness of visual research based on human visual habits. The validation process was performed using case studies that evaluated visual data and assessed the necessary mental effort required to find information on the schedule. The graphical convention of textures and colours has already been validated. The results have clearly demonstrated that this convention helps to simplify the process of searching for information on the schedule. Project modellingOver time, graphic modelling has become an essential tool for project managers. A model is a form of representation designed to aid in the visualisation of an item that cannot be observed directly, either because it has not yet been constructed or because it is abstract (Wideman, 2003). To construct a model, a class of phenomena is isolated and the reproduction of their behaviour is attempted using a certain number of hypotheses and laws (Legay, 1997). Being a simplification of reality, any model has its limitations. Thus, it is essential that the user be aware and be conscious of the validity of the results. Facing increasingly complex processes and procedures as well as multidisciplinary infrastructures, a model with a clear visualisation can facilitate the demonstration of the necessary information and becomes a useful tool for decision making. Karavakis et al. (2010) mention that the extraction of the desired data is facilitated when using simple graphical interfaces.Visual representation usually allows for faster data exploration and often provides better results, especially in cases where automatic algorithms fail (Keim, 2002). Graphs are understood differently than text -that is, the former is understood globally, whereas the latter is understood sequentially. In addition, graphs can act as both a type of artificial memory and as a research tool in that they allow for the simultaneous display of the general structure as well as the details and exceptions: they can show the leaves, the branches and the whole tree at the same time (Bertin, 2005). According to Friedman (2008), the main goal of data visualisation is to communicate information clea...

“…The Experiment Dashboard Analysis Task Monitoring application [14] exposes a userfriendly interface and offers a wide selection of plots. This application plays a very important role in the distributed analysis operations of both CMS and ATLAS as it empowers the users in such a way so that only serious issues are escalated to the user analysis support teams.…”
