Call for Abstracts

IBPSA-Canada's biennial conference, eSim, brings together professionals,
academics and students interested in building performance simulation
issues and applications. The 2010 conference is hosted by Manitoba
Hydro, in collaboration with the National Research Council of Canada. It
will be held in Winnipeg, Canada on May 19 and 20, 2010 (pre-conference
and post-conference workshops on May 18 and 21, 2010).

 

Only original papers related to the conference topics and not published
elsewhere will be accepted. All accepted papers accompanied by a
conference registration will be published in the conference proceedings,
and presented at the conference in parallel oral sessions. In the event
submissions exceed the conference presentation quota, poster sessions
will be held to accommodate additional papers. Each registration
entitles the author to submit a single paper/poster. One additional
paper/poster per registration is allowed against a special fee.

The themes of the conference are: 

*	Recent developments for modelling the physical processes
relevant to buildings (thermal, air flow, moisture, lighting). 
*	Algorithms for modelling conventional and innovative HVAC
systems. 
*	Methods for modelling the whole-building performance, including
integrated resource management, renewable energy sources and combined
heat, cool and power generation. 
*	Building simulation software development and quality control
approaches. 
*	Use of building simulation tools in code compliance and
incentive programmes. 
*	Moving simulation into practice. Case studies of innovative
simulation approaches. 
*	Validation of building simulation software. 
*	User interface and software interoperability issues. 
*	Architectural and engineering data visualization and animation. 
*	Optimization approaches in building design.  

 

The deadline for abstracts is: October 1, 2009.
The abstract must be in plain text and be a maximum of 500 words. eSim
2010 is a bilingual conference and abstracts, papers and presentations
will be accepted in either English or French.  Please submit abstracts
to the eSim 2010 web site at: http://www.esim.ca <http://www.esim.ca/> 

 

At least two reviewers will be assigned by the Scientific Executive
Committee to examine each abstract in a double-blind review process.
Corresponding authors will be informed of the abstract review results by
October 29th, 2009.
