2nd International Workshop on Digital Technologies for Smart and Sustainable Buildings (DTSSB 2026)

Co-located with BIR 2026
Olten, Switzerland
October 7, 2026

Workshop website:

Submission:
https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=bir2026


== About the workshop ==

Smart buildings are evolving into complex socio-technical systems where IoT infrastructures generate large volumes of heterogeneous data, enabling advanced approaches such as Digital Twins, Artificial Intelligence (AI), semantic modeling, knowledge graphs, and process mining.

From an ontology and semantic technologies perspective, smart buildings raise important research challenges related to semantic interoperability, knowledge representation, data integration, and context-aware reasoning over heterogeneous building data.

DTSSB 2026 aims to bring together researchers and practitioners to explore methods, models, architectures, and technologies supporting the design, integration, operation, and governance of smart and sustainable buildings.

The workshop welcomes conceptual, technical, application-oriented, and case-study contributions related to digital technologies for smart and sustainable buildings.


== Topics ==

Topics include, but are not limited to:

- Semantic models and ontologies for Smart Buildings
- Knowledge Graphs for integrated building information management
- Semantic interoperability between BIM, IoT, Digital Twins, and facility management systems
- Ontology-based modeling of Smart Building systems and services
- Semantic data integration for heterogeneous building data
- Context-aware reasoning and decision support in Smart Building systems
- Digital Twins and IoT for Smart Buildings
- Hybrid AI approaches combining generative AI, symbolic reasoning, and semantic models
- Explainable AI for Smart Buildings
- Process mining and semantic analysis of IoT data
- Data governance, privacy, and security in Smart Building platforms
- Data analytics and decision support for Smart Buildings
- Energy efficiency and building operation optimization
- Facility management and building operation optimization
- Case studies and industrial applications
