The Joint International Conference on Computing and Decision Making in Civil and Building Engineering in Montreal finished nine days before the beginning of the 13th Workshop of the European Group for Intelligent Computing in Engineering in Ascona. This provided an opportunity at the workshop to organize a panel session in Ascona to discuss outcomes after a week of retrospection. The Joint International Conference in Montreal was the first time that five leading international computing organizations (ASCE, ICCCBE, DMUCE, CIB-W78 and CIB-W102) joined forces to organize a joint conference. The meeting was attended by nearly 500 people from 40 countries around the world. It was unique in that this was the first time so many branches of computing in civil engineering were brought together.
