SPECIAL SESSION
Increasingly, computer
simulations and optimizations of energy flow inside built environment are being
employed to inform decisions in building design, construction, operation, and
maintenance. The objectives are improved energy efficiency, minimum life cycle
cost, quality life support, and optimized environmental performance. The
submitted papers should deal with different simulation and optimization tools
and techniques for (1) building physics; (2) air conditioning and heating
systems; (3) energy supply systems, (4) air movement in buildings; (5) indoor
air quality, (6) building services (lighting systems, cold and hot water
supply); and (7) environmentally green buildings.

SPECIAL SESSION on
Building Energy Simulations & Optimizations at AfricaMS 2010 intends to bring together researchers and
practitioners to discuss key issues, approaches, open problems, innovative applications
and trends in this research area.
Papers
should contain original contributions not published or submitted elsewhere.
Papers up to 10 pages (including figures, tables and references) can be submitted.
Papers should follow the
format, which is single spaced, two columns, 10 pt Times New Roman font. All
submissions should be electronic (in PDF) and will be peer-reviewed by at least
two program committee
members.
Full papers accepted for the workshop will be included in the proceedings. Note
that at least one author from each accepted paper should register to attend AfricaMS
2010 to get the paper published in the proceedings. The papers should be
submitted at : bojic@xxxxxxxx
or by using EasyChair at http://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=ssbeso10
