Urban Simulation

For each topic, contributions from academic research (model / validation of simulation) or from practical applications (case studies) are welcome. The papers (as a pdf file) will be published on our website after the conference. Good papers will be selected for publication in the Journal for Building Performance Simulation (JBPS, IBPSA Journal).
