“…Several tools are available to simulate occupant movements, like Quelea in Grasshopper [67] and PEDSIM [68]. This method is broadly used for the site planning [69,70], and some studies used this method to evaluate the existing space layout for renovation [71,72]. A similar concept was applied to the interactive design of the interior space, in which the furniture changed accordingly to occupant movements resulting in different interior spaces [73].…”

Due to the critical need for reducing carbon emissions, the demand for energy-efficient building design is urgent. Studies have shown that space layouts affect energy performance considerably. Energy performance optimisation is able to improve energy performance significantly. However, in order to apply energy performance optimisation to space layouts (EPO), abundant layout alternatives are needed. With the development of computational methods, automatic generation of space layouts (GSL) helps to generate abundant layouts quickly. Therefore, combining GSL with EPO is expected to be greatly helpful for energy-efficient design. This paper investigates 10 relevant studies combining GSL and EPO and analyses their gaps. Furtherly, we extend the analysis to the research on GSL and EPO. 7 GSL methods are categorised and evaluated based on 66 studies, and the requirements for the combination with optimisation are inspected. Regarding EPO, the requirements for energy performance assessment and optimisation are analysed.

The healthcare system today faces numerous challenges due to lack of visibility of resources and low utilisation, excessive rental as well as purchase of medical equipment. The article attempts to identify the possibilities of implementing a system of identification and location of assets in healthcare system institutions. This research presents market analysis in the context of available technological solutions. The implementation of real-time location system (RTLS) would enable not only tracking of equipment and inventory in medical facilities, but also increase visibility of inventory and manage the entire supply chain. Presentation of the proposed solution made it possible to assess costs, potential savings and the implementation process. This article is a starting point for a discussion on the cost-effectiveness of using RTLS in the healthcare system.

“…Computer vision technology, which collects data with image recording, uses advanced image processing algorithms with the complex structure to describe the object to be tracked (Oosterlinck et al, 2017). The motion sensor technology analyzes high-cost multi-camera images that are sensitive to the indoor locations and monitor the target areas (Dzeng et al, 2014). IR technology can also be used indoors in total darkness, as opposed to the motion sensor (Asha and Narasimhadhan, 2017).…”

To overcome this problem, RFID technology is used to gather data.…”

Purpose With the emerging technologies, collecting and processing data about the behaviors of customers or employees in a specific location has become possible. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate existing data collection technologies. Design/methodology/approach Technology evaluation problem is handled as a multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) problem. In this manner, a decision model containing four criteria and eight sub-criteria and four alternatives are formed. The problem is solved using hesitant analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and trapezoidal fuzzy numbers (TrFN). Findings The results show that the most important sub-criteria are: accuracy, quantity, ıntrospective and cost. Decision makers’ evaluate for alternatives, namely wireless fidelity (WiFi), camera, radio-frequency identification and Bluetooth. The best alternative is found as Bluetooth which is followed by WiFi and Camera. Research limitations/implications Technology evaluation problem, just like many other MCDM problems are solved using expert evaluations. Thus, the generalizability of the findings is low. Originality/value In this paper, technology selection problem has been handled using hesitant AHP for the first time. In addition, the original methodology is extended by using TrFN to represent the expert evaluations in a better way.
