    When the World Talks Back … Connecting People and Things
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-09-27) Budd, James G. ; Posner, Noah K. ; Romm, Stuart ; Wang, Wei
    Over the past 10 to 15 years the evolution of smart, sensor-based products and systems has reshaped the way we interact with each other and the world around us. This Research Forum will compare a snapshot from the past with new initiatives today that connect us with the products around us, the buildings we inhabit, and the cars we drive along with speculation of where we might be headed tomorrow.

    Planning Energy-Efficient Buildings and Cities
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-03-08) Augenbroe, Godfried ; Guhathakurta, Subhro ; Mallen, Evan ; Yang, Perry Pei-Ju
    Urban built form plays a crucial role in energy consumption, hence planning energy-efficient cities requires thoughtful design at multiple scales -- from buildings, to neighborhoods, to cities.

    The Digital Twin: Intelligent and Responsive Environments
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-01-25) Guhathakurta, Subhro ; Pishdad-Bozorgi, Pardis ; Sanford, Jon ; Shelden, Dennis R. ; Yang, Perry Pei-Ju
    Smart cities, buildings, homes, and infrastructure are all emerging as critical themes for the 21st-century built environment. These developments all have in common the integration of distributed sensors, coupled with real-time virtual simulation, and closed loop digital interventions into the built environment. College of Design faculty are working across widely varying scales from the city to the chip to conceive of and realize the next generation of digitally mediated built environments. This forum will present College research spanning from smart cities to smart buildings, virtual and augmented reality, and the internet of things. It will be followed by an open forum to explore opportunities for further collaboration by faculty and students in this wide area of emerging technology.

    An Appraisal of California Codes’ Impact on Residential Electricity Consumption
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-03-30) Brown, Jason
    In his talk, he will consider whether California energy policies implemented in the mid1970s influenced residential electricity consumption. Many studies of these policies have been done over the years. These studies are reviewed and a model of the state’s residential electricity consumption is developed based on an early study supporting policy development. A hindcast using this model suggests a 6 percent reduction in residential electricity in the first 10 years of the policy over a modeled counterfactual scenario without policy. In addition, a more complete assessment of causality which accounts for uncontrolled, non-policy factors that can also lower electricity consumption suggests this policy had a 36% chance of being necessary and a 30% chance of being sufficient.

    The Runner or the Course? Capacity Endowments and Paradigm Alternations in the Domestic Tech Development of Brazil and Mexico
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2017-01-26) Fuentes, Alberto
    The talk will employ a comparison of the historical experience of four large-scale industries – the Mexican and Brazilian auto and oil industries – to evaluate some of the main factors shaping firm-level learning and acquisition of knowledge-based assets between the 1970s and the 2000s. It will underscore the central role of (a) initial capacity endowments, and (b) alternations in the hegemonic policy paradigms to account for variations in industry-level learning patterns.

    Through the Eyes of the User: An Evidence-Based Approach for Evaluating Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Design
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2016-10-06) Denham, Megan
    The built environment is critical to support the needs of NICU babies, their families, and caregivers. In this session, a novel approach to evaluating design based on the activities and needs of the users will be presented.
