1 post / 0 new

Dear colleagues,

This is the final reminder of the abstract submission due date 31/01/2017 for the eg-ice 2017 International Workshop on Intelligent Computing in Engineering in Nottingham, UK. If you haven't submitted, please do here: https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=egice2017.

We are very pleased to announce the keynote speakers of the eg-ice 2017 workshop:

* Dr Burcin Becerik-Gerber, University of Southern California (USC), USA
Burcin is an Associate Professor and Stephen Schrank Early Career Chair of Civil and Environmental Engineering. She received her D.Des (Doctor of Design) degree from Harvard University in 2006 and joined University of Southern California (USC) in 2008. Burcin is the founding director of the Innovation in Integrated Informatics LAB, http://i-lab.usc.edu/. Her research focuses on acquisition, modeling, and analysis of the data needed for user-centered built environments, and the development of novel frameworks and visualization techniques to improve built-environment efficiency, while increasing user satisfaction. She is currently advising eight Ph.D. students, several masters and undergraduate students in the "Informatics for Intelligent Built Environments" focus area.

* Mr Philip Robinson, Laing O'Rourke, UK
Philip is a Chartered Engineer and is part of the Civil Engineering leadership team within Laing O'Rourke's Engineering Excellence Group (http://www.laingorourke.com/engineering-the-future/engineering-excellence-group.aspx), focussing on innovation within the infrastructure sector and beyond. As part of his role within the Engineering Excellence Group Philip works closely with clients, technology partners, centres of education, and Laing O'Rourke's own internal supply chain, and has developed an understanding of the needs and challenges that face the industry as we move forwards into a new digital age of construction. Since joining the business three years ago he has worked closely with project teams on the A453 widening in Nottingham, the Northern Line Extension and Thames Tideway Tunnel. More recently Philip has been working on a research and development project to develop a new digital platform for the design, manufacture, construction and maintenance of bridges. Prior to that, as part of over 12 years of wider experience, Philip worked for Alan Baxter & Associates, a highly regarded Civil & Structural Engineering design consultancy, and spent over 5 years on the redesign of London Bridge Station as part of the Thameslink Programme.

As announced earlier, a selection of conference papers will be invited to submit extended versions to a special issue of the Advanced Engineering Informatics journal (https://www.journals.elsevier.com/advanced-engineering-informatics). In addition to this, we will also invite selected papers to a special issue of the journal Advances in Computational Design (http://www.techno-press.org/renewal/?page=journal_info&journal=acd).

More information can be found on the workshop's website http://www.eg-ice2017.com.

We are looking forward to receiving your contribution and welcoming you to Nottingham in July.
