TECHNICAL FEATURE

to the building automation system. Moreover, the scope
could be extended to include additional indoor environmental parameters (e.g., airspeed or contaminants) to
improve the prediction of occupant comfort.

Acknowledgments
We would like to thank the Natural Sciences and
Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) for
financially supporting this research. We would also like
to thank Homesol and the gymnastics center manager
for their assistance and the occupants for their participation throughout the study.
