Call for Abstracts Final Reminder - Deadline Oct 1st

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



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.
