Review of Programs Embracing a Whole-House or Systems Approach for Housing. Supplemental Data No. 1

摘要

The following report is the result of an extensive search into whole-house system interactions, definitions, as well as past and on-going programs that have embraced systems design for the home. The report also provides a collection of information regarding current home subsystems and home system definitions. Attachment A identifies and discusses government programs and trade publications, while attachment B consists of scientific and technical literature. This report is part of Phase I efforts under a PATH program to assess the feasibility of a whole-house systems calculator. Future work under Phase II of this program will expand on this information to address specific systems and subsystems.
