D.; Reinhart, C. F. The responses obtained from 177 participants showed that over 90% of the practitioners surveyed support the development of a new daylighting design guide that would provide online access to both simple calculation methods as well as more advanced daylighting design tools. Survey results also showed that a variety of nonstandardized daylight prediction methods -primarily rules of thumb -are currently being used, and that there is no commonly acknowledged method of how to assess the performance and quality of a daylighting system in terms of energy savings, glare prevention, daylight factors, and view to the outside.

Alur Kerja Baru Simulasi Performa Bangunan Dalam Proses Desain Parametrik

“…Dikarenakan hambatan dalam penggunaan alur kerja yang sudah ada sering mengakibatkan dikesampingkannya pembuatan simulasi lingkungan dalam proses perancangan (Galasiu & Reinhart, 2007). Oleh karena itu sangat dibutuhkan adanya alat bantu simulasi pencahayaan yang mudah dalam penggunaannya dan dapat menghasilkan umpan balik yang cepat sehingga dapat menjadi suatu hal yang ideal untuk dilakukan pada tahap awal proses perancangan ketika keputusan yang paling mempengaruhi biasanya dibuat dimana paling banyak dipengaruhi oleh faktor pencahayaan alami.…”

Interactive expert support for early stage full-year daylighting design: A user's perspective on Lightsolve

“…Such an interactive platform could empower the designer with a computational framework that builds upon his or her own intuition and experience -the two most cited factors in driving the design process for daylighting performance [5,35] -and become an asset in the architect's toolset. …”

A Practical Framework for Sharing and Rendering Real-World Bidirectional Scattering Distribution Functions

“…The Radiance lighting simulation system is used directly or indirectly by the majority of the daylight modeling community (Galasiu and Reinhart, 2008). Its freely available source facilitates additions and experimentation, and improves transparency for researchers and advanced users (Larson and Shakespeare, 1998).…”
