With my apologies for cross-posting...  But I do hope many members of the
TRNSYS community will attend the next IBPSA conference here in Glasgow.

Building Simulation 2009 
University of Strathclyde, Glasgow, Scotland 
27th – 30th July 

Call for abstracts for BS'09
Conference website:  <http://www.bs2009.org.uk> www.bs2009.org.uk 


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.
