Abstract

This session aims at presenting recent and advanced modeling techniques in areas like environmental modeling, integration of renewable energy into the electricity grid (smart grid), waste management, modeling of climate variables, models for buildings physics, models for Net Zero Energy Buildings etc. This session will particular welcomes papers that discuss modeling techniques such as times series analysis, neural networks, Bayesian analysis, probabilistic modeling and advanced numerical methods.
