Proceedings of the First International Symposium on Sustainable Human-Building Ecosystems, held in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, October 5-6, 2015. Sponsored by the Research Coordination Network on Sustainable Human-Building Ecosystems of the University of North Texas and the Architectural Engineering Institute of ASCE. This collection contains 25 peer-reviewed papers on the integration of human behavioral, social, and economic sciences with building design and engineering for a better understanding of building energy performance, environmental impact, and occupant comfort. Topics include: occupant behavior modeling and analysis; thermal comfort prediction and analysis; and innovative planning, design, and policies for building energy efficiency. This proceedings will be of interest to engineers and researchers working in sustainable building design.<\/p>\n
