The ASA 2018 Conference- Engaging Architectural Science: Meeting the Challenges of Higher Density invites researchers and practitioners to present and exchange ideas that will contribute to the betterment of our environment.

 

Refereeing Process

 

All abstracts will be double-blind peer reviewed, and accepted abstracts will be invited to be developed into full papers. Each submitted full paper will be double-blind peer reviewed by members of the International Scientific Committee.

​

The authors of the selected papers will be invited to extend their papers for submission to, and publication in, Architectural Science Review (ASR), published by Taylor & Francis.
