The Board of Directors of IBPSA is seeking nominations for Awards to be
presented at Building Simulation 2017, in San Francisco, USA (7-9 August
2017).
IBPSA makes three awards for outstanding work in the building performance
simulation field. These awards are made on a biennial basis at each Building
Simulation Conference, providing there is a qualified candidate. In order to
allow the awardees time to plan to attend, it is time to consider
nominations for the up-coming conference in 2017. The three categories
awarded are:
(1) IBPSA Distinguished Achievement Award
This award, formerly named the IBPSA Award for Distinguished Service to
Building Simulation, recognizes an individual who has a distinguished record
of contributions to the field of building performance simulation, over a
long period. The award consists of a certificate and $500 (US). Awarded
biennially.
(2) IBPSA Outstanding Young Contributor Award
This award recognizes an individual at the beginning of their career who has
demonstrated potential for significant contributions to the field of
building performance simulation. The award consists of a certificate and
$500 (US). Awarded biennially.
(3) IBPSA Innovative Application Award
This award, formerly named the IBPSA Award for Distinguished Practice,
recognizes an individual, group or firm, who has made a significant
contribution to the effective application and/or advancement of building
performance simulation in practice. The award may be given for a unique or
noteworthy use of simulation in practice; development of simulation software
or supporting software that has had a significant impact on industry
practice; or other contribution that has advanced building performance
simulation in practice. The award consists of a certificate and $US500.
Awarded biennially.
Nominations
Nominations for awards MUST be made by an independent third party.
Nominations for the Distinguished Achievement Award should include a brief
CV which gives the history of involvement with building performance
simulation, publications etc., and a summary of the nominee's specific
contribution to the field of building performance simulation - e.g. in the
development/ contribution to development of building performance simulation
tools or in furthering knowledge in the field of application of building
performance simulation, etc. Nominations should be on institutional or
corporate letterhead and scanned if necessary.
Nominations for the IBPSA Outstanding Young Contributor Award should include
a brief CV, which gives a summary of the individual's contributions to the
field of building performance simulation, their publications etc., and an
assessment of the potential for future contributions arising from the
individual. Nominations should be on institutional or corporate letterhead
and scanned if necessary. In addition, each nomination should be submitted
as a single pdf file.
Nominations for the Innovative Application Award should be accompanied by a
summary of the individual's, group's or firm's contributions to the field of
building performance simulation in practice and an assessment of the
significance of these contributions.
Nominations must be submitted via email to the Chair of the Awards and
Fellows Committee, Cheol-Soo Park, at cheolspark at skku.ac.kr
The deadline for nominations is 30 November 2016.
