GSA Energy Smart Buildings
Kevin Powell, GSA
The U.S. General Services Administration is committed to incorporating principles of sustainable design and energy efficiency into all of its building projects. Amidst efforts to renew infrastructure and revitalize federal public buildings as part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act, GSA also established a vision and plan for Smart Buildings. Kevin Powell, Director of Research for GSA's Public Building Service, will share this vision for incorporating intelligence in energy efficient and sustainable government buildings. |

Track 1: Systems |
Track 2: Interactions |
| 1:00 PM- 2:30 PM |
Enterprise Systems and Middleware
Operation of facilities is migrating from being focused on a single building to the operation of groups of buildings as an enterprise. In addition, middleware technology utilizes open standards to bring together multiple systems. The use of such tools and technologies are allowing for centralization of skills and staff, providing numerous benefits. This panel will examine these technologies, systems and their benefits.
Presenter
