Track Leader:  Anto Budiardjo
Wednesday May/23/2007

Buildings 2.0 is a vision that intricately intertwines buildings with Internet technologies. It is a vision that the future of buildings is one which is controlled, managed and connected to the Internet, in a way that goes far beyond simply placing a web server to the control system or in the use of IP.

This session will uncover the vision of Buildings 2.0 and how it will make a significant impact to building owners and building industry in the years to come.

The Vision of Buildings 2.0

13:30 - 14:45

The concept of Buildings 2.0 is new, but compelling. Born at the Cisco Connected Roundtable at BuilConn Dubai, the vision will be presented by individuals from the Dubai meeting. This session will also discuss the conclusions of the previous day's Cisco Connected Roundtable in which the progress and evolution of Buildings 2.0 would have further developed.

Presenters:

Buildings 2.0 and Technology

15:15 - 16:30

Buildings 2.0 will require a good understanding of relevant technologies, specifically in the architecture of devices, systems and information. This session will focus on outlining a framework architecture of how Buildings 2.0 should evolve, delivered by presenters who have firsthand experience with designing and deploying connected buildings.

Presenters:

Certifying Designers & Installers

17:00 - 18:15

The concepts of Buildings 2.0 would require that the complete delivery channel understand the vision and their role within it. An important part of this is the certification of individuals and companies involved in the design and implementation stages, to ensure that buildings are corrected planned to achieve the objectives of the building owner.

This session will put forward a proposed certification framework, one that would include all key players in the delivery chain, to work together with a common aim.
