Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost-Effective Energy Refurbishment of Health Care Facilities in Heating Dominated Climates of Italian Backcountry. The Case Study of the Hospital Veneziale of IserniaRosa Francesca De Masi, Fabrizio Ascione, Gennaro Sosto, Giuseppe Peter VanoliMaximizing energy efficiency within hospitals and healthcare facilities is a major challenge for sustainable development and energy saving objectives. In this study, the case study of the public hospital of Isernia (Italian backcountry city) is proposed, being typical of the hospital building stock developed in reinforced concrete all around Italy in the last 40 years. Starting from deep on-site investigations, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 25 Sep 2017 · 8,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding Energy Modeling Using Artificial Neural NetworksMaya Arida, Nabil Nassif, Rand Talib, Taher Abu-LebdehAccurate modeling of total building energy is now vital to reduce energy consumption. This is especially true for buildings since they are considered as the largest energy consumer in the United States. This paper investigates modeling methods for building energy-systems using non-linear auto-regression artificial neural networks. The proposed model can forecast the whole building energy consumptions given the four input … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 7,131 accessesView PDFCite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Systematic Review on Wake-up Radios Applied to Wireless Sensor NetworksMarco Aurélio Spohn, Caetano Mazzoni Ranieri, Agnelo Rocha da Silva, Jó UeyamaWireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are the backbone of many monitoring applications, especially in the Internet of Things (IoT) context. However, efficient power management becomes a critical challenge when sensor nodes rely on disposable batteries. The deployment of WSNs must ensure coverage and connectivity, but the resulting distribution of nodes and underlying protocols directly impact the network’s lifetime. The concept of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 3 · 4 Feb 2025 · 6,212 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,098 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Simulation and Optimum Operation Strategy of a Trigeneration System Serving a HospitalFrancesco Calise, Massimo Dentice d'Accadia, Luigi Libertini et al.This paper presents a numerical analysis of a trigeneration system in a hospital, aiming at determining the cost-optimal operating strategy as a function of the energy demands to be matched. The system includes: A natural gas fired reciprocating engine, heat exchangers for waste-heat recovery, a single-stage LiBr-H2O Absorption Chiller (ACH), a cooling tower, pumps, a backup boiler, a backup vapour-compression … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 29 Aug 2016 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoupling Routing Algorithm and Data Encoding for Low Power Networks on ChipMaurizio Palesi, Davide Patti, Giuseppe Ascia et al.The routing algorithm used in a Network-on-Chip (NoC) has a strong impact on both the functional and non functional indices of the overall system. Traditionally, routing algorithms have been designed considering performance and cost as the main objectives. In this study we focus on two important non functional metrics, namely, power dissipation and energy consumption. We propose a selection policy … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 4 May 2015 · 6,932 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,503 accessesView PDFCite
