FW: [ontolog-invitation] Building Services Performance - ProjectKickoff Conference Call

["Considine, Toby (Campus Services IT)" <Toby.Considine@unc.edu>]

Others may be interested in this very interesting project. Can we define how BIM specifies building services in such a way as they are measurable? Can we make the activity of building systems Performance based?

  ******************** Overview **********************

"Building Service Performance (BSP)" is an emerging Ontolog
project to formalize how we describe the purposes of facilities
and the associated services expected from and for the
building systems.

The framework will define how services are requested and
desired performance specified during design, and metrics to
capture how the quality and performance of services is
measured during building commissioning and operation.

You are cordially invited to participate in this kickoff meeting
and in the ensuing project to delve further into the important
domain space of Building Service Performance through
knowledge capture from a wide field of domain experts,
ontology formalism and ontological engineering.


  ******************** Details ************************

We shall kickoff the BuildingServicePerformance project at
the Building Service Performance Conference Call on
Monday, the 16th of June, 2008.
