They are naturally regarded as large, coupled human, and physical systems consisting of coupled sub-systems linked through flows of human, information, and matter; these systems evolve through time (Bakhshi et al., 2016; Kiridena and Sense, 2016). Not about let systems be, engineering refers to "making things happen" with convergence, optimum design, and operation consistency (Mihm et al., 2003; Ottino, 2004). Specially, mega-projects, which are regarded as typically artificial complex systems, are composed of elements with different properties; connections among those elements change invariably. Mega-project management is proposed to analyze and deal with complexity (Sheng, 2018).展开更多
