Dear Colleagues,

Just a couple of reminders about the ACM International Conference on Systems for Energy-Efficient Built Environments, Cities, and Transportation (ACM BuildSys). The conference will be held Nov. 13-14 in New York City, NY, USA.

General Reminders

-        Buildsys is ranked A by the Core conference ranking system.

-        This year, a subset of the best papers in the ACM Buildsys proceedings will be fast tracked to the ACM Transactions on Sensor Networks with minor revisions, upon author’s agreement.

Call for Papers Reminders

-        Other than the Regular papers (10 pages) and Notes papers (4 pages), this year we will also have abstract only papers (2 pages), where the presentation will include a very short oral and an optional poster presentation.

Call for Doctoral Colloquium (PhD Forum) Reminders

-        The Doctoral Colloquium of BuildSys 2019 seeks to provide a friendly, supportive, and constructive environment where PhD students can present their research in progress for an open discussion guided by a panel of experienced researchers.

-        Students with the most inspiring topics will also be invited to present a poster during the main conference to leverage further interaction with BuildSys attendees.

-        Current PhD students in the early stages of their career are encouraged to submit a 2-page research summary describing the work in progress and including a 100-word abstract.

-        The student should be the sole author, although contributions of the advisor and others should be acknowledged.

-        There will be no separate registration fee for the Doctoral Colloquium.
