http://esim.ca <http://esim.ca/> (*early bird rate until March 31*)

The 2012 eSim Building Simulation Conference in Halifax, Canada is 
hosted by Dalhousie University and features an exciting slate of 
speakers, social events, workshops, and tours. Major themes include: 
building performance modeling, innovative technology control methods, 
simulations tools, and quality control approaches. We invite you to 
explore our new website which contains all the information

We have received well over 50 research papers, forming a full two-days 
of parallel technical sessions (a detailed schedule is available under 
/Conference Information/ at http://esim.ca <http://esim.ca/>).
Several exciting features of the eSim conference are (complete 
descriptions at http://esim.ca/):

  * Conference venue is the Pier 21 Immigration Museum on the Halifax
    Waterfront where over a million immigrants entered Canada.
  * Keynote speakers are Christoph Reinhart (MIT Architecture) and Mark
    Riley (former Sustainable Buildings Director at CanmetEnergy).
  * Technical tour of the NSCC Centre for the Built Environment (LEED
    Silver)
  * Social events at the Seaport Farmers Market (LEED Platinum) and
    banquet at the historic Waterfront Warehouse.
  * Half and full-day workshops on modeling and simulation, communities,
    and certification tools.
  * Reduced rate accommodations at the Westin Hotel are within a 10
    minute walk from all events.

*Keynote speakers of eSim 2012:*

Christoph Reinhart is an Associate Professor of Building Technology in 
Architecture at MIT. He has built design tools such as DIVA-for-Rhino 
and Daysim. Dr. Reinhart's address is titled /Building Performance 
Simulation – From Evaluating Performance To Suggesting New Forms./

Mark Riley was the S&T Director of the Sustainable Buildings and 
Communities Group within CanmetENERGY. He now consults on projects 
related to sustainable housing, buildings and communities. Mr. Riley's 
address is titled /Housing for a Changing World: A Sustainable Housing 
Technology Roadmap for Canada./

*About the eSim 2012 Conference:*
eSim brings together professionals, academics and students interested in 
building performance simulation advancements and applications. The 2012 
conference is hosted by Dalhousie University in collaboration with 
Natural Resources Canada. It will be held in the beautiful port city of 
Halifax, Canada on May 2 and 3, 2012, with workshops held one day pre 
and post the conference. Themes of the eSim conference surround the 
modeling and simulation of processes and performance of the built 
environment. This includes all aspects of building simulation ranging 
from the simulators themselves to results of unique and innovative 
models. Coverage includes modeling physical processes (energy, occupant 
comfort, daylighting, etc.), control methods, community energy systems, 
building simulator tools, use of tools with building code/incentive 
programs, and performance visualization/validation.

We hope you will join us for the 2012 eSim Building Simulation 
Conference on 1-4 May. We invite you to explore our website at 
http://esim.ca/.

Dr. Lukas Swan and Prof. Richard Kroeker
