Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSmart Retrofit Solutions of Buildings toward a Low Carbon WorldErdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceIn this short communication, energy-efficient, eco-friendly and low-cost solutions for existing buildings are considered in a holistic manner toward low/zero carbon building concept of near future. Buildings are still responsible for about 40% of total primary energy consumption in the world, hence decisive measures need to be taken promptly due to growing significance of environmental issues driven by fossil fuel … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Aug 2018 · 7,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLocation-Aware Energy-Efficient Workload Allocation in Geo Distributed Cloud EnvironmentSoha Rawas, Ahmed ZekriThe proliferation of cloud computing relied on the virtualization of the compute and storage resources and provisioning them dynamically according to users’ needs on a pay-per-use model. Massive cloud providers have geo-distributed cloud data centers to ensure service reliability, availability and satisfy user’s need. Therefore, cloud management systems are necessary to increase the profit of cloud providers and to improve … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 13 Mar 2018 · 8,034 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the keywordsWLHP Systems in Commercial Buildings: A Case Study Analysis Based on a Dynamic Simulation ApproachGiovanni Barone, Annamaria Buonomano, Cesare Forzano, Adolfo PalomboIn this study, the results of the performance analysis of a WLHP system applied to a large mall building located close to Naples (South Italy) is presented. The investigation was carried out through a purposely developed dynamic simulation model conceived for building-WLHP systems analyses. Through such computer tool, hourly, daily and seasonal system energy, economic and environmental assessments can obtained. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 26 Sep 2016 · 8,208 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the keywordsRetrofitting the Electric Lighting and Daylighting Systems to Reduce Energy Use in Buildings: A Literature ReviewMarie-Claude Dubois, Fabio Bisegna, Niko Gentile et al.This paper presents a literature review about energy-efficient retrofit of electric lighting and daylighting systems in buildings. The review, which covers around 160 research articles, addresses the following themes: (1) retrofitting electric lighting in buildings, (2) electric lighting energy use and saving potential and (3) lighting retrofit strategies.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOverview of Certification Methodologies for Sustainable Constructions of Brazilian BuildingsVanessa Silva Pugliero, Lorenzo Campos Coiado, Lia Lorena Pimentel et al.The terms “sustainable” and “environmentally-friendly” have been used in the construction industry field as a marketing appeal. The methodology to judge in which level a building is sustainable in Brazil is incipient, without orientation and hardly ever there is a diffusion of these methods inside Brazilian territory. Almost all developed countries have their appropriate certification methodology for sustainable constructions. Some … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 3 · 25 May 2015 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAdvanced Energy Efficient Passive Clustering Mobility in Wireless Sensor NetworksAouad Siham, Maach Abdelillah, El Ganami DrissWireless sensor networks have a wide applicability and increase deployment in the near future. In most of those applications, the network is composed of an important number of nodes deployed in an extensive area in which not all nodes are directly connected and based on clustering techniques. The Clustering can considerably reduce transmission overhead during flooding. In fact, by using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 12 · 24 Oct 2013 · 6,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimal Network Design for Efficient Energy Utilization in Wireless Sensor NetworksChutima Prommak, Sujitra ModhirunProblem statement: This research presents a study of the optimal network design for efficient energy utilization in continuous data-gathering Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). We first examine the problem of minimizing the network cost through the minimum number of relay-station installation. Then we further investigate the problem of minimizing the energy consumption of the sensor nodes. Approach: We model the network … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,350 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsPeriodic Service Behavior Strain Analysis-Based Intrusion Detection in CloudS. Priya, R. S. PonmagalThe problem of intrusion detection in cloud environments has been well studied. The presence of adversaries would challenge data security in the cloud by generating intrusion attacks towards the cloud data and should be mitigated for the development of the cloud environment. In mitigating intrusion attacks, there exist several techniques in the literature. The method uses different features like frequency … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 20, Issue 2 · 28 Dec 2023 · 5,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA LEADER BASED MONITORING APPROACH FOR SINKHOLE ATTACK IN WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKD. Udaya Suriya Rajkumar, Rajamani VayanaperumalSecurity is one of an important factor to be considered seriously in wireless sensor networks. In WSN, in many ways intrusion may occur, in the past decades there is no perfect IDS, without any wasting of resources like time, energy, cost and number of physical items. The main objective is to ensure the security and improve the quality of network … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
