Take the energy bill back to the promised building performance (TRIBUTE)

Start date: Oct 1, 2013, End date: Sep 30, 2017,

Today, Building Energy Performance Simulation (BEPS) analysis tends to show a large discrepancy with real energy performance. Most cases are due to gross mistakes rather than fundamental inadequacy of available technology and methods. The reasons are manifold. Highly simplified calculation methods are used far beyond their domain of validity. Assumed boundary conditions such as occupant behaviour ...

SIMPLI-CITY - The Road User Information System of the Future (SIMPLI-CITY)

Start date: Oct 1, 2012, End date: Sep 30, 2015,

Nowadays, mobile Internet is available almost everywhere. Nevertheless, the impact of this "ubiquitous Web access" has not arrived at road user information systems with a few exceptions for navigation systems or traffic monitoring. Making full use of the Internet availability can enable a whole range of new services and apps for road users, helping them to make their journey safer, more comfortabl ...
