Abstract The Internet of Things (IoT) has been rapidly evolving towards making a greater
impact on everyday life to large industrial systems. Unfortunately, this has attracted the …

Cyber-attacks are becoming more sophisticated and thereby presenting increasing
challenges in accurately detecting intrusions. Failure to prevent the intrusions could degrade …

Detailed parametric analysis and measurements are required to reduce building energy
usage while maintaining acceptable thermal conditions. This research suggested a system …

The overall aim of this paper is to contribute to a better understanding of the Digital Twin
(DT) paradigm in the built environment by drawing inspiration from existing DT research in …

Building envelope parameters and geometric configurations can considerably influence the
building energy performance. However, determining the best trade-offs of different building …

This paper proposes an efficient methodology for the simulation-based multi-objective
optimization problems, which addresses important limitations for the optimization of the …

Energy retrofit and renovation of existing buildings have an effective role in reducing carbon
dioxide emissions and ultimately global warming. Therefore, there is an increasing interest …

Integrating optimization algorithms into simulation-based design processes is a promising
approach for achieving energy efficient buildings. Building Energy Simulation and …

Energy efficiency is a mandatory requirement and integral part of green and sustainable
buildings. Energy efficient design optimization is both a design philosophy and a practical …
