Buildings are responsible for a large portion of global energy consumption. Therefore, a
detailed investigation towards a more effective energy performance of buildings is needed …

A primary strategy for the energy-efficient operation of commercial office buildings is to
deliver building services, including lighting, heating, ventilating, and air conditioning …

A general approach is proposed to determine the common sensors that shall be used to
estimate and classify the approximate number of people (within a range) in a room. The …

Building energy consumption accounts for a large proportion of energy use globally.
Previous works have shown that a large amount of energy is wasted in under-or over …

In recent years, many scholars have dedicated their research to the development of low-cost
sensors for monitoring of various parameters. Despite their high number of applications, the …
