Brief description
The availability of large volume of data, and the capability of processing/analyzing them, is transforming how we approach issues in building operation and environmental science. Both academia and industry have witnessed more and more successful examples in recent years. How to address the unprecedented challenges, and to embrace the unprecedented opportunities? What are the unique issues that data analytics R&D can contribute for a typical metropolis like Hong Kong? This panel hopes to serve as a platform for researchers and engineers, as well as e-Energy conference participants, to get together to discuss these timely and vibrant issues.
