With rapid development of india’s national economy and improvement of living standards, energy issues have turned into serious social problems, restricting further development in the country. Large public buildings in india consume a great quantity of energy, and the indian government has rolled out a number of programs to retrofit them. Many retrofit technologies are readily available in india. However, there is uncertainty about technology effectiveness and which technologies work better in which climate zone. Only spotty analyses and summaries of real projects are available in literature. This report compares and analyzes these technologies in detail and provides some guidance in selecting economically effective approaches to retrofitting large public buildings. The first section sorts out some common building energysaving technologies and describes each technology with real projects. This section offers related background information for calculations later in the report.the second section summarizes energy consumption in office buildings and retail stores based on a literature survey for three major locations in india. The data includes itemized energy consumption, as well as energy use at whole-building levels. Later, building energy consumption simulation software – equest is used to simulate typical public buildings we constructed out of the literature survey. We calibrated the models, adjusted the usage schedules, and built a series of prototype models for all three geographical locations. The last section evaluates the effectiveness of each retrofit technology. Equest simulated the energy consumption with and without retrofit technologies in order to determine savings. We then added a cost analysis and calculated the typical payback period for each technology. Finally, we summarized these findings in tables so that readers can easily compare and understand how much savings and the payback period they can expect before starting a retrofit project.

Seminar title: Building Information Modelling for Handover and Facilities Management
Current processes of designing and building new facility, operating and maintaining it are full of gaps, and valuable data is lost. The biggest problems exist with delivery of intelligent “as-built” information to the owner of a new facility, and keeping “as-maintained” BIM up-to-date. This session will explain how to populate and maintain data created during design & construction stage (including BIM in the field), enhance it during construction and commissioning using Lean processes, and incorporate into Facility Operations & Maintenance using COBie standard. Then we will review several case studies outlining how the leading facility owners use BIM for Facility Management.

Sustainability In Government - Bim Webinar4 All of Us
CROSS-WHITEHALL SUSTAINABILITY PRACTITIONERS FORUM
ADDRESSING THE BENEFITS OF BIM - SPONSORED BY FORGE TRACK LTD
We kick-started the series with a webinar for the Cross-Whitehall Sustainability Practitioners Forum. These webinars will provide the practitioners with the latest information, knowledge and policy announcements on a range of sustainability issues and was decided to launch this series by addressing BIM. BIM is a new requirement for government which Sustainability Practitioners will need to be aware of and one that will help Departments in the achievement of the mainstreaming commitments outlined below.
The Green Government Commitments require transparency and, in addition to the above requirements, must address the following areas: climate change adaptation; biodiversity and natural environment; procurement of food and catering services; sustainable construction; and staff wellbeing and quality of life. The Government Construction Strategy published May 2011, set out the framework for a range of workstreams, all of which have the ultimate aim of reducing the cost of government construction projects by 15-20 per cent by the end of the current Parliament.
The BIM task group are supporting and helping deliver the objectives of this strategy and the requirement to strengthen the public sector's capability in BIM implementation with the aim that all central government departments will be adopting, as a minimum, collaborative level 2 BIM 2016.
This webinar examined how BIM can support central government departments in their achievement of collaborative level 2 Bim by 2016 and highlight the great work already taking place within this field.

Exploring the adoption of building information modelling (bim) in the malaysi...eSAT Journals
Abstract The construction industry believes that Building Information Modelling (BIM) is a platform that has the potential to promote collaborative activities in the construction industry. Thus, clients are gradually enforcing the use of BIM in their projects, resulting in many construction companies investing in BIM technology in order to fulfill clients' needs. Therefore, the goal of this study is to explore the process and the level of BIM implementation in the Malaysian construction industry. This study was conducted as an exploratory study through literature review and interviewing the organisations that have had BIM experience. The result reveals that Malaysian construction industry players are having difficulties to implement BIM because they do not know where, when and how to start as there is no national BIM standard and guideline for them to follow. Lack of government involvement worsens the current situation besides having the resistance to change from people. To reduce the resistance from people, most of the companies came out with their own strategy such as developing new BIM unit, developing training and education program, changing management style and developing new roles and responsibilities. These activities could facilitate people and the organisations in adopting BIM because BIM is not only a technology but it is also involved in changing the current practices and processes including changing managerial function and hierarchy, including roles and responsibilities. Small to medium scale pilot projects can be described as the best practice to adopt BIM in reducing the risk when migrating from the traditional approach to a new approach. This study also identified that BIM Level in the Malaysian construction industry is between Level 0 and 1. Index Terms: Building Information Modelling (BIM), Malaysian Construction Industry, Government Roles, National BIM Standard, Training and Education, Change Management.
Building Information Modelling (BIM) will change the face of the architecture, engineering, construction and property sectors. What is is it? What challenges need to be overcome? How widespread has BIM been adopted? The future?. Presentation given to UCLAN Innovation Circle by Paul Wilkinson on 08 May 2009.

Barriers and issues with the creation of calibrated modelsDaniel Coakley
Presented at IES Seminar - 'Operational Energy Management of the Built Environment' at Guinness Storehouse on 18th November 2015.
Whole building energy simulation (BES) models play a significant role in the design and optimisation of buildings. Simulation models may be used to compare the cost-effectiveness of energy-conservation measures (ECMs) in the design stage as well as assessing various performance optimisation measures during the operational stage. However, due to the complexity of the built environment and prevalence of large numbers of independent interacting variables, it is difficult to achieve an accurate representation of real-world building operation. Therefore, by reconciling model outputs with measured data, we can achieve more accurate and reliable results. This reconciliation of model outputs with measured data is known as calibration.

CAD to BIM conversion is the process of transforming 2D CAD drawings into 3D Building Information Models (BIM). BIM is a more comprehensive and data-rich model that can be used to improve the sustainability of buildings. CAD to BIM conversion plays a crucial role in sustainable building design by enabling more efficient and integrated workflows. For more information, visit https://www.chudasamaoutsourcing.com/services/cad-to-bim-conversion.html
Building information modelling (BIM) is a process involving the generation and management of digital representations of physical and functional characteristics of places. Building information models (BIMs) are files (often but not always in proprietary formats and containing proprietary data) which can be extracted, exchanged or networked to support decision-making regarding a building or other built asset.
A BIM-based Detailed Electrical Load Estimation, Costing and Code Checking IJECEIAES
Building Information Modeling (BIM) has established into a powerful solution for our construction requirements throughout its life cycle. Compared to conventional methods, BIM offers simple, faster and accurate methodology for modelling, estimation and analysis. In this paper, a novel Autodesk Revit add-in tool named as ―Electrical System Estimation and Costing Tool‖(ESECT) is proposed for the simultaneous estimation of electrical connected load, demand load, Volt Ampere per square meter, cost of electrical system construction and monthly bill from a residential building model and the add-in tool is developed by using Visual basic C# language. Research results indicate that wide range of BIM automated tools are possible for code-checking and estimation for design analysis at all stages of electrical system development and eventually leads to better design and cost reduction.

How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

Why React Native as a Strategic Advantage for Startup Innovation.pdfayushiqss
Do you know that React Native is being increasingly adopted by startups as well as big companies in the mobile app development industry? Big names like Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest have already integrated this robust open-source framework.
In fact, according to a report by Statista, the number of React Native developers has been steadily increasing over the years, reaching an estimated 1.9 million by the end of 2024. This means that the demand for this framework in the job market has been growing making it a valuable skill.
But what makes React Native so popular for mobile application development? It offers excellent cross-platform capabilities among other benefits. This way, with React Native, developers can write code once and run it on both iOS and Android devices thus saving time and resources leading to shorter development cycles hence faster time-to-market for your app.
Let’s take the example of a startup, which wanted to release their app on both iOS and Android at once. Through the use of React Native they managed to create an app and bring it into the market within a very short period. This helped them gain an advantage over their competitors because they had access to a large user base who were able to generate revenue quickly for them.

In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.
Understanding Globus Data Transfers with NetSageGlobus
NetSage is an open privacy-aware network measurement, analysis, and visualization service designed to help end-users visualize and reason about large data transfers. NetSage traditionally has used a combination of passive measurements, including SNMP and flow data, as well as active measurements, mainly perfSONAR, to provide longitudinal network performance data visualization. It has been deployed by dozens of networks world wide, and is supported domestically by the Engagement and Performance Operations Center (EPOC), NSF #2328479. We have recently expanded the NetSage data sources to include logs for Globus data transfers, following the same privacy-preserving approach as for Flow data. Using the logs for the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) as an example, this talk will walk through several different example use cases that NetSage can answer, including: Who is using Globus to share data with my institution, and what kind of performance are they able to achieve? How many transfers has Globus supported for us? Which sites are we sharing the most data with, and how is that changing over time? How is my site using Globus to move data internally, and what kind of performance do we see for those transfers? What percentage of data transfers at my institution used Globus, and how did the overall data transfer performance compare to the Globus users?
Globus Compute wth IRI Workflows - GlobusWorld 2024Globus
As part of the DOE Integrated Research Infrastructure (IRI) program, NERSC at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab and ALCF at Argonne National Lab are working closely with General Atomics on accelerating the computing requirements of the DIII-D experiment. As part of the work the team is investigating ways to speedup the time to solution for many different parts of the DIII-D workflow including how they run jobs on HPC systems. One of these routes is looking at Globus Compute as a way to replace the current method for managing tasks and we describe a brief proof of concept showing how Globus Compute could help to schedule jobs and be a tool to connect compute at different facilities.

Bim adoption
1. Chapter Details
• This Chapter provides the factors that a
project team should evaluate when
considering the BIM-based modelling during
• Design
• Construction
• Commissioning
• Operations of a building
3. Decision process
• The project team should discuss when and how to use energy
modelling when developing the project management plan or as early
as possible during the project.
The recommended process for deciding when and how to use energy
modelling in a project includes the following steps:
• Identify the stakeholders and their energy goals
• Define the business needs and energy considerations of the project.
• Identify the opportunities where energy performance information
can help guide the project
• Identify the project team’s capabilities and resources, including
time, budget, and skill for using energy modelling effectively
• Identify the energy modelling tools that will generate useful
information for the team
4. • The team should consider the questions in an iterative, cooperative manner
in order to plan the most effective implementation.
• The earlier the team considers issues regarding building performance, the
bigger the possible gains, and the lower the cost to achieve these gains.
• The following figure illustrates, the earlier the team considers issues
regarding building performance, the bigger the possible gains, and the
lower the cost to achieve these gains.
5. Traditional vs. BIM based Energy Modelling
POINTS TRADITIONAL BIM
Model Creation
An energy modeller manually
creates a model using design
documentations such as
drawings, specification, and
photos
BIM-based energy modelling
uses the design BIM to create
the input file for the energy
modelling software, using
standardized data structures for
information exchange
PROCESS
The modeller will almost
always have to simplify some
or all of the design information
in order to make the input file
manageable.
By using BIM, the process of
creating an energy model has the
potential to become automated
and formulaic.
Inconsistencies
This process limits the
accuracy of the model to the
skill of the energy modeller,
and it can lead to serious
inconsistencies in the model,
particularly if more than one
modeller works on the model.
The geometry and other
assumptions specified in the
architectural model remain
consistent across users and are
not subject to interpretation or
improper simplification
6. Design changes can lead to
additional inconsistencies if
the energy modeller revises
the energy model in an
effort separate from the
revisions to the design
documentation.
A process must be adopted
that ensures accuracy of the
information transfer to the
energy model using BIM, or
the problems associated
with traditional energy
modelling described above
may still occur and may
even be exacerbated.
7. Energy Efficiency and BIM-Based Energy
Modelling
In new construction
• major renovation
• Modernization and
• building operations,
Are the areas of major concern for GSA.
The following table shows some opportunities to use
BIM-based energy modelling during design to promote
energy efficiency.

9. Feasibility of BIM-Based Energy Modelling
Energy modelling is intended to support integrated design - a process in
which multiple disciplines and design elements occur iteratively and in
partnership to allow for synergies between the various systems and
components.
• Successful realization of this process requires coordination and
collaboration among the
• owner;
• developer;
• architect;
• mechanical,
• electrical, and
• structural engineers;
• landscape architect; and any other relevant design team members
throughout the entire design process.
10. Integrated Project Delivery (IPD) allows design teams to
make design decisions earlier in the project when the
opportunity to influence positive outcomes is maximized and
the cost of changes is minimized,
The factors to consider can be summarized as follows:
• Project goals and energy modelling scope
• Project budget and schedule
• Project resources
• Energy modelling technology
11. Project Goals and Energy modelling Scope
In GSA’s case, early design encompasses the preliminary concept design
and final concept design phases; for other project teams, early design may
be identified as
• “Pre-Design,”
• “Conceptual Design,” and
• “Schematic Design.”
The scope and the level of detail of energy modelling depend upon the
project scope, project constraints, performance goals, and project phase.
Below is a summary of common modelling detail and depth of analysis
during various project phases
12. .

14. “The Basis of Modelling” is a coordination tool and a supplement to the project’s
BEP, though project teams may choose to include the information as part of the
BEP. It should reference specific BIM Levels of Detail (LOD 100-500, for
example) and the BEP as appropriate, and it should contain information on the
following items when applicable to the project:
Energy modelling team members and their roles (who will perform energy
modelling, who will provide required inputs for energy modelling, when the
information transfers need to occur, etc.)
• Energy modelling scope (stakeholders, tools, workflow, etc.)
• Project data (building codes, weather, utility rates, etc.)
• Building geometry
• Construction materials
• Space use type and scheduling
• Base and process loads
• On-site generation
• Mechanical systems
• Cooling and heating plants
• Utility rates
• Documentation of results
15. Project Budget and Schedule
• When the project team decides to employ BIM-based energy
modelling, the team will always need to consider constraints
such as the project budget and the project schedule.
• With increased attention to the sustainable design of buildings,
more and more design teams are enhancing their in-house
energy modelling expertise and/or working more with
consultants to meet their clients’ modelling demands.
• This phenomenon, in conjunction with the continued
development and improved usability of energy modelling
programs, has resulted in a decrease in energy modelling costs
in recent years
16. Project Resources
Depending on the building and systems involved, energy modelling
requires varying levels of technical expertise and experience.
The project team may need support from building energy modelling
professionals or advanced technical support from a software vendor to
correctly perform advanced energy simulations, particularly when the
building systems and software applications involved are newer to the
industry.
The team should work with the GSA National BIM Program Expert, the
regional energy engineer, and the GSA BIM community to confirm the
level of support required and available early in the energy modelling
process.
It can use certifying organizations as resources for evaluating building
energy modelling professionals (examples listed below).
• ASHRAE’s Building Energy Modelling Professional (BEMP) Certification
• Association of Energy Engineers’ (AEE) Building Energy Simulation
Analyst (BESA™) professional certification
17. Energy Modelling Technology
• Selecting the most appropriate energy modelling tool to fulfill the
project team’s needs is a crucial step in the energy modelling
process.
• While the software application that best suits a project’s goals will
vary from project to project, it is important for GSA project teams to
prioritize interoperability with the Industry Foundation Classes (IFC)
schema and green building XML (gbXML).
• Selecting an energy modelling tool in haste could have budget and
schedule consequences for the project. In particular, thorough
analysis of building systems involving alternative or renewable
energy typically involves specialty software that is potentially
fragmented from the whole BEM.
• Though software capabilities are increasing rapidly, the project team
may find that a particular project proposal or desired analysis is
simply not well supported by a given tool’s functionality and/or the
technical support capabilities of the software vendor
18. • Energy modeling tools typically consist of a graphical user
interface (GUI) and a thermal calculation engine.
• The tool requires the user to provide inputs that describe the
building geometry and layout
• including thermal zoning,
• construction, operating schedules,
• equipment loads (lighting, equipment, etc.),
• HVAC systems,
• local weather data,
• and utility rates .
• It performs an annual hourly simulation (minimum 8760
hours per year), first calculating the building loads and then
calculating the system capacities required to meet those
loads.
