[BLDG-SIM] Artificial Intelligence application to Building Systems

[Michael Wetter]

Praveer,

Genetic Algorithms and Particle Swarm Optimization Algorithms have been 
examined for building design in the paper below. See also the references 
cited in this paper for other applications of GA. Financial aspects can 
be included in single objective optimization either as the cost function 
or as a constraints, or they can be considered by using multi-objective 
optimization.
