Due to the fast advancement of communication and information technology, intelligent
buildings have garnered great interest. These buildings can forecast weather, ambient …

High share of energy consumption in buildings and subsequent increase in greenhouse gas
emissions along with stricter legislations have motivated researchers to look for sustainable …

This paper reviews occupancy based model predictive control (MPC) for building indoor
climate control. Occupancy behavior in buildings is stochastic and complex in nature. With …

Networked control systems (NCSs) have played a key role in Internet of Things (IoTs) to
realize the vision of a fully interactive and responsive intelligent environment. However …

Significant energy savings and thermal comfort improvement related to radiant floor systems
may not be achieved when underfloor heating/cooling is adopted in lightweight building …

Small and medium-sized commercial buildings (SMCB) are significant demand response
resources, and it is important to develop grid-responsive control algorithms that exploit those …

Buildings are responsible for almost half of the world's energy consumption, and
approximately 40% of total building energy is consumed by the heating ventilation and air …

This article proposes a model predictive control as a secure service (MPCaaSS) framework
for cyber–physical systems (CPSs) in the presence of both cyber threats and external …

Small and medium sized commercial buildings, such as retail stores, restaurants and
factories, often utilize multiple packaged air conditioners, ie roof top units (RTUs), to provide …

With regard to climate change, it is imperative to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. One
solution approach is to increase energy efficiency in buildings. Buildings contribute a high …
