About the Abstracts
Technical papers are solicited for the 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 Legacy Town Center located in Plano, Texas. 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.
The purpose of the symposium is to 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.
Authors wishing to present a paper for consideration must submit a 200-400 word abstract of each proposed paper no later than Monday, July 14, 2008 (electronic format required). All abstracts will be peer reviewed, and the acceptance based on content quality, originality and composition. A draft copy of an accepted paper must be received by Monday, September 1, 2008. The final corrected manuscripts must be received by Monday, October 27, 2008.
