Advanced Decision Making for HVAC Engineers
This book focuses on some of the most energy-consuming HVAC systems; illuminating huge opportunities for energy savings in buildings that operate with these systems. The main discussion is on, cutting-edge decision making approaches, and algorithms in: decision making under uncertainty, genetic algorithms, fuzzy logic, artificial neural networks, agent based modeling, and game theory. These methods are applied to HVAC systems, in order to help designers select the best options among the many available pathways for designing and the building of HVAC systems and applications. The discussion further evolves to depict how the buildings of the future can incorporate these advanced decision-making algorithms to become autonomous and truly ‘smart’.
Energy-Efficient HVAC Design
This book provides readers with essential knowledge enabling the successful design of today's new energy efficient HVAC systems. The author introduces important concepts such as Knowledge Categorization, Performance Based Design Standards, and Quantification of Uncertainty in Energy Modeling for Buildings. Pivotal topics that all HVAC and architectural engineers must master in order to navigate the green building renaissance are given focused attention, including the role of renewables, air quality, automatic controls, and thermal comfort. Relevant ASHRAE standards, as well as sustainability scoring systems such as BREEAM, HQE, LEED and CASBEE are explained in depth. Armed with the material contained in this practical reference, students and practitioners alike will become more effective and prepared for engineering success.

Computação Cognitiva
Várias cidades do Brasil sofrem uma expansão territorial e de habitantes constantemente, esse processo é chamado urbanização. Uma urbanização descontrolada gera muitas dificuldades, ressaltando a mobilidade do transporte público, visto que um vultoso número de cidadãos depende dessa mobilidade, temos por exemplo o transporte público de Goiânia, que abala diretamente a condição de vida dos passageiros. Para sua presciência é essencial um modelo capaz de espelhar o desempenho de sua demanda, proporcionado que o sistema atenda os usuários de forma aceitável. Conforto e segurança são algumas das exigências dos cidadãos quando disfrutam de um serviço público, como o transp...
Strategic Decision Making
Strategic Decision Making provides an effective, formal methodology that provides help with decision making problems, especially strategic ones with high stakes involving human perceptions and judgements. Focusing on applying the AHP to decision-making problems, Strategic Decision Making covers problems in the realms of business, defence and governance. Using case studies drawn from years of experience, the book discusses decision making for real life problems and includes many worked examples and solutions to problems throughout. The reader will gain comprehensive exposure to the extent of assistance that a formal methodology, such as AHP, can provide to the decision maker in evolving decisions in complex and varied domains.
