Global climate change and COVID-19 have changed our social business life. People spend most of their daily lives indoors. Low-cost devices can monitor indoor air quality (IAQ) reduce health problems caused by pollutants. This study proposes a real-time low-cost monitoring system for smart homes based on Internet Things (IoT). The developed IoT-based is portable provides users with data transfer...

The present study aimed at investigating the effects of ventilation strategies on indoor air quality (IAQ) in schools. Measurements thermal environment and IAQ were performed over 5 school days 45 primary classrooms Gothenburg, Sweden, grouped into three categories according to their system: category A) natural or exhaust ventilation, automated window opening; B) balanced mechanical systems wit...

IAQ is a crucial factor affecting the health, comfort, and productivity of workers, particularly those working in enclosed spaces like bank offices. This study aimed to evaluate office’s operational area vault by analyzing concentrations CO2, TVOC, PM10, PM2.5, as well temperature, relative humidity, air movement. Two different ventilation systems were compared assess their impact on IAQ. The a...

Abstract Children spend a large part of their waking lives in school buildings. There is substantial evidence that poor indoor air quality (IAQ) and thermal discomfort can have detrimental impacts on the performance, wellbeing health schoolchildren staff. Maintaining good IAQ while avoiding overheating classrooms challenging due to unique occupancy patterns heat properties schools. Building sto...

We are interested in exploring the complementary relationship and tradeoffs between testing and property-based analysis with respect to bug detection. In this paper we present an empirical approach to the assessment of testing and property-based analysis tools using metrics to measure the quantity and efficiency of each technique at finding bugs. We have implemented our approach in an assessmen...

Occupants can provide valuable feedback on the indoor environmental quality of buildings. Research occupant voting systems (OVS) has demonstrated that apps or electronic devices act as viable tools for collecting long-term from occupants. However, previous research only to a limited extent explored occupants’ interaction with OVS and impact it might have reliability collected feedback. The pres...

Since people spend most of their time inside buildings, indoor air quality (IAQ) remains a highlighted topic to ensure in the built environment improve public health, especially for vulnerable users. To achieve better (IEQ), some countries’ governments or regional institutions have developed and published reference guideline values various pollutants prevent IAQ from becoming adverse occupants....

Guests’ evaluation of indoor environmental quality (IEQ) is important for identifying environment problems in hotels and improving service quality. This paper aims to identify IEQ budget China improve them. Specifically, 2.06 million online reviews were used assess issues China’s four areas: acoustic environment, luminous air (IAQ) thermal environment. The influences the season, region type cus...

With a growing awareness of the potential hazards of chemical and biological agents in our homes, schools and workplaces, a greater emphasis has been placed on evaluating the role of mycotoxins and mycotoxin-producing fungi in our indoor environments. Now, more then ever, the potential health effects of airborne molds and other biological contaminants are being given serious consideration in IA...
