The conference had received 310 paper abstracts from Mainland China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and abroad this year. All the abstracts have been reviewed by the Review Panel. The academic committee has also confirmed all the judgment results. The conference secretariat would like to announce that the abstract review process of the 7th China Urban Housing Conference is now completed and the results have been posted on the “Accepted Abstracts” page. Meanwhile, all authors should have received individual abstract acceptance announcement with comments from the reviewers.
 Owing to the overwhelming amount of abstract submissions, which has substantially exceeded the conference capacity, some of the abstracts received will not be invited for full paper submission. The abstract acceptance rate of this year is 48.5%.

Until now, the 7th Conference has already received around 150 abstracts from Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and overseas. However, due to the system error of our Online Paper Submission System in the earlier time, some authors had difficulties in paper registration and abstract submission. In order to compensate the time lost, the Academic Committee of the 7th China Urban Housing Conference has decided to extend the due date of abstract submission to April 25, 2008. We apologize for any inconvenience caused.
For the authors who have already submitted their abstract, the Online Paper Submission System is still open for your login and modification on the abstract and relevant information during this period.
We are welcoming all colleagues, especially the young researchers and research students from all over the world to participate the conference. The 7th China Urban Housing Conference offers an open academic discussion platform for both local and overseas researchers, practitioners, officials, developers and students, who share interests in the housing development of “Green Architecture and Social Sustainability” in China and other regions. Furthermore, the conference will offer existing activities both in and after the conference main program, including student poster session, the co-event Housing Design Competition awarding ceremony and exhibition, and post-conference excursions to the nearby cultural/natural heritages and historic towns. For further information of the conference and tourist attractions, please visit the page ‘Conference Participation > Conference Directory > City’ for more details.
If you are interested in the 7th China Urban Housing Conference but have not submitted the abstract yet, please do not hesitate to use the following ten days to prepare your abstract. We quite appreciate you participation and support. Should you have any query, please feel free to contact us.
