Testing energy efficiency in urban regeneration (2012)
Journal Article
Caputo, S., Caserio, M., Coles, R., Jankovic, L., & Gaterell, M. R. (2012). Testing energy efficiency in urban regeneration. Proceedings of the ICE - Engineering Sustainability, 165, 69-80. https://doi.org/10.1680/ensu.2012.165.1.69

One of the main objectives currently pursued in planning sustainable urban environments is the reduction of energy consumption. Strategies for energy and the built environment are given in UK planning policies. Yet the application of such strategies... Read More about Testing energy efficiency in urban regeneration.

Sustainable energy? A feasibility study for Eastside, Birmingham, UK (2006)
Journal Article
Hunt, D. V. L., Jefferson, I., Jankovic, L., & Hunot, K. (2006). Sustainable energy? A feasibility study for Eastside, Birmingham, UK. Proceedings of the ICE - Engineering Sustainability, 159(4), 155-168. https://doi.org/10.1680/ensu.2006.159.4.155

Eastside, a 130 ha brownfield site located to the eastern side of Birmingham's city centre, is undergoing social, economic and environmental changes, driven mainly through public and private investment estimated to be worth £6 billion. The regenerati... Read More about Sustainable energy? A feasibility study for Eastside, Birmingham, UK.

Structural Simulation Models That Build Themselves (2001)
Journal Article
Jankovic, L., Jankovic, S., Chan, A. H. C., & Little, G. H. (2001). Structural Simulation Models That Build Themselves. International journal of simulation: systems, science & technology (Print), 1(1-2), 35-43

The paper reports on creation of analogue models of structures in virtual reality, using an emergent, or
bottom-up approach, inspired by laws of Complexity. This approach focuses on component based modelling using
fundamental laws of physics. The c... Read More about Structural Simulation Models That Build Themselves.

Which is better: Gas or electricity? (1994)
Journal Article
Jankovic, L. (1994). Which is better: Gas or electricity?. Building Research and Information, 22(5), 261-268. https://doi.org/10.1080/09613219408727399

An important message from the presented results is that neither of the systems is better or worse. The suitability of gas and electric heating depends on the circumstances where these systems are applied. Both electricity and gas have advantages and...

The limits of intelligent office refurbishment (1993)
Journal Article
Boyd, D., & Jankovic, L. (1993). The limits of intelligent office refurbishment. Property Management, 11(2), 102-113. https://doi.org/10.1108/02637479310026659

Examines the context of design of intelligent buildings. Considers the potential to create intelligent buildings during refurbishment in the light of refurbishment limits – quality and quantity of space, appearance of building. IT and services distri...
