Abstracts may be submitted via our website above. Please note that the
deadline for abstracts is 1 September 2008. 

IBPSA will hold its 11th bi-annual international conference, the leading
international conference in building performance simulation, in summer
2009 at the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow. Glasgow, Scotland's
largest city, has an unrivalled choice of museums, theatres, parks,
science centre and shopping, set within some of the finest Victorian
architecture in Europe. In addition, Glasgow has a worldwide reputation
as a welcoming city and is firmly established and experienced as a major
centre for conferences and international events. 

The conference organizers are seeking high quality papers and will limit
the number of peer-reviewed oral presentations. Submissions will
therefore be rigorously peer-reviewed. Simulation-based papers on the
following themes are welcomed: 


1.	advances in building physics 
2.	human aspects of the indoor environment 
3.	building services 
4.	commissioning and operation 
5.	energy capture and conversion 
6.	advances in applications 
7.	validation and calibration 
8.	software issues 
9.	simulation in design practice 
10.	regulation/code compliance 
11.	application day case studies* 

* One day of the conference will be devoted to practical applications,
particularly focusing on simulation in practice with illustrative case
studies. Therefore, a limited number of additional papers are invited in
order to enable practitioners to demonstrate the benefits flowing from
the recent upsurge in the use of simulation in building design. If you
wish to contribute such a paper, please ensure it is marked as an
application day case study in the abstract submission. 

Abstracts should be in plain text and no more than 500 words. They
should describe clearly the research objectives and new knowledge
arising from the research.
