ECPPM 2016 - The 11th European Conference on Product & Process Modelling

Call for Papers
Aim & Scope
In the last two decades, the biannual ECPPM (European Conference on Product and Process Modelling) conference series, as the oldest BIM conference, has provided a unique platform for the presentation and discussion of the most recent advances with regard to the ICT (Information and Communication Technology) applications in the AEC/FM (Architecture, Engineering, Construction and Facilities Management) domains. ECPPM2016 is the 11th European Conference on Product & Process Modeling, the flagship conference event of the European Association of Product and Process Modeling (EAPPM), with a long standing history of excellence in product and process modeling in building industry, which is currently known as building information modeling (BIM). ECPPM2016 covers complementary thematic areas that hold great promise for the advancement of research and technological development in the modelling of complex engineering systems. In this context, ECPPM2016 foresees to attract high quality research papers and to provide a platform for the cross fertilization of new ideas and know-how in relation to the special conference themes.
