      • Why Palm Springs is Important Today we’re standing at a very significant watershed of change; this is not only my prediction but represents the billion dollar actions of companies from major traditional players to new IT entrants. This is also being driven by the demands of owners, now inquisitive (and willing to spend money) about how IT can better their buildings.
      • Understanding the Connectivity Law Anto’s Connectivity Law: “The value of a piece of information is proportional to the number of uses that piece of information is connected to.”
      • AHR and the Road to Palm Springs It was a perfect start of 2006, a year that will be a critical year for convergence. Cisco’s participation will make BuilConn Palm Springs a must-attend event for vendors, integrators, consultants and owners.
      • Comments on Amsterdam Between HP and Cisco’s significant presence there, the release of the convergence study by i&i ProPlan, our partnership with ZigBee and OASIS and the many presentations and discussions on the subject, BuilConn Europe 2005 could be regarded as the turning point and uptake of Building-IT Convergence.
      • BuilConn Europe 2005 Update ....IP-enabled gateways that talk XML and Web services, to IP-centric products such as servers, hosted services, BACnet Web Services, oBIX, to a great deal of discussion on IP-based standards.

      • BuilConn 2004   December 2003  We're glad that BuilConn can be the annual venue where the people involved can physically convene, meet, discuss and get to know each other.
      • XML initiative for Buildings September 2003 The impact of having an XML-based standard for buildings is perhaps the linchpin in the convergence of building systems with the IT infrastructure - it is something this industry must support in order to grow. 
      • [an error occurred while processing this directive] BuilConn 2004 July 2003 We are seeking input from integrators and contractors on the subjects they feel warrant in-depth sessions.
      • Clasma - Beyond BuilConn June 2003 Our role here is to facilitate communication in the industry; what we always say is, "When people interact openly, magic happens!"
      • BuilConn™ 2003 Update April 2003  The enthusiasm of our Advisory and Content Board has been phenomenal and the eagerness of the presenters has been very encouraging.
      • BuilConn™ 2003 Update   February 2003 You need to look at BuilConn as not just another conference or tradeshow. That’s why we called it the “Building Connections Forum”. 
      • BuilConn™ 2003 Update   December 2002  Almost all of the integrators, contractors and dealers we have spoken to feel that an event focused on the integration of all of the systems found in buildings is desperately needed. 
      • BuilConn™ Building Connections Forum 2003 October 2002  I have observed in my years that there is no forum, event, expo or any formal gathering that focuses totally on controls. No event or gathering for manufacturers, distributors, integrators, contractors, dealers and resellers to meet.
      • Where are Open Systems Today?   November 2001 The technology needs to be usable by a large number of vendors in many different parts of the building from components, controller and end devices, infrastructure pieces, engineering and analysis tools to operator side products such as HMI, database, alarm handlers and so on.
