2008 Symposium on Improving Building Systems in Hot and Humid Climates to be
held December 15-16, 2008. The Symposium will be held in conjunction with the
Clean Air Through Energy Efficiency 2008 Conference (CATEE). Together,
these create a unique blend of symposia dedicated to energy efficiency and
clean air. The conference site will be the Marriott at <u1:PlaceName u2:st="on"><st1:PlaceName

This unique and premier conference focuses principally on building air
conditioning performance in hot and humid climates. Attendees are upper level
energy managers, building managers, architects, designers, consultants, utility
representatives, code officials, equipment manufacturers and suppliers,
consumers and researchers from around the world.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>

accomplish technology transfer—from the laboratories of leading academic institutions,
research organizations and industry; and from the best practices of practicing
design and operations professionals—to the building industry at
large. Identification of new equipment and processes is of major
importance. However, the paper and presentation should be free of
commercialism.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
