Building Simulation Applications BSA 2019 - Proceedings of 4th IBPSA-Italy conference

Unlike the previous editions,the fourth Building Simulation Applications BSA 2019 Conference took place in June, from 19th to 21st, instead of during the winter period. For the biennial conference hosted by the Free University of Bozen-Bolzano, IBPSA Italy had to double its efforts, considering its concurrent commitment to the organization of Building Simulation 2019 in Rome. Even so, BSA 2019 featured more than 60 participants and around 130 different authors, with a significant presence of delegates from abroad and, in particular, from Austria. A different review process was introduced, with the full paper submission and review following the conference. Based on this, only 40 out of the 54 works presented during the conference in two parallel sessions were accepted for inclusion in this proceedings book.
