Symposium on Simulation for Architecture and Urban Design (SimAUD 2016 Proceedings) brings together an international group of researchers, engineers, architects and computer scientists in London, UK.  London has long been an international hub in research and innovation and home to some of the world’s most known academic institutions, architectural practices and engineering offices.

This document edited by Ramin Attar, Angelos Chronis, Sean Hanna and Michela Turrin includes presentation of peer-reviewed original research papers, work in progress, posters, panel discussion, and keynote speech with subjects like building simulation, daylighting, urban networks & analysis, agent base modeling, data driven design, urban data, design decision support, design computation & methods, fabrication and form finding.
