Occupant presence and behaviour in buildings has been shown to have large impact on
heating, cooling and ventilation demand, energy consumption of lighting and appliances …

This paper aims to provide a systemic review of how indoor sensors influence in managing
optimal energy saving, thermal comfort, visual comfort, and indoor air quality in the built …

Occupant Behavior (OB) is one of the major drivers of building energy consumption.
However, OB is usually oversimplified in Building Performance Simulation (BPS), resulting …

This article reviews the state-of-the-art developments in Multi-Agent Systems (MASs) and
their application to energy optimization problems. This methodology and related tools have …

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

This study presents the energy performance of a three unit apartment building in Perth,
Western Australia equipped with a shared energy microgrid. Although there has been a …

The energy use of an office building is likely to correlate with the number of occupants, and
thus knowing occupancy levels should improve energy use forecasts. To gather data related …

Commercial buildings are attractive targets for introducing innovative cyber-physical control
systems, because they are already highly instrumented distributed systems which consume …

Reducing energy consumption within buildings has been an active area of research in the
past decade; more recently, there has been an increased influx of activity, motivated by a …

Modern buildings are being integrated with myriad (often> 1000s) networked sensors to
improve convenience, occupant comfort accessibility and energy-efficient operations. These …
