HodDB: a query processor for brick

Brick [1] is a recent effort to design a metadata schema for describing building components, subsystems and the relationships between them. With growing interest in Brick, it is important to characterize how suitable Brick is for embedding in real building applications. This demonstration will present HodDB [3], a new database and query processor for Brick models. Attendees will use HodDB to query and explore real Brick models using a variety of textual and graphical query interfaces, and see how HodDB can embed Brick queries in real applications.
