The focus areas are user-centric spaces, energy efficient management, revenue models for good indoor environments, and design and implementation of inspiring learning environments. The program explores with an open mind new markets in indoor environments of the future. The Program realizes the strategic research agenda through far-reaching, collaborative and multidisciplinary research work done jointly by companies, universities and research institutes. The companies partaking in the program explore with an open mind new markets in indoor environments of the future which people enter to get invigorated and increase their wellbeing. The work packages (driver companies in parentheses): 1. User-Centric Indoor Environment (Halton) 2. Energy Efficient Control of Indoor Environment (Schneider-Electric) 3.

RYM SHOK and Indoor Environment Program “Indoor Environment” Program is an ambitious research program co-ordinated by the Strategic Centre for Science, Technology and Innovation for Built Environment (RYM Oy). The program had 31 industrial partners and 13 research partners in the research consortium and the total research budget for both industrial research and academic research is 23.8 million euros. The duration of the program is from May 1, 2011 to March 30, 2015. The aim of the Indoor Environment Program is to generate breakthrough knowledge of indoor environment. The main research questions of the program are as follows: 1. How people perceive the indoor environment? 2. How indoor environment supports the people’s well-being, productivity and learning ability? 3. How to build zero energy houses with good and healthy indoor environment? 4. How to improve actual indoor environment and energy efficiency as well as awareness of those in existing buildings? 5. What is the business logic of superior indoor environment? The Indoor Environment research is divided into four work packages (WP): WP1 User-Centric Indoor Environment WP2 Energy Efficient Control of Indoor Conditions WP3 Business Logic on Knowledge Intensive Space Markets WP4 Future Learning Environments Health, design, energy efficiency, and valuation have been identified as the key research themes of indoor environment. 2. Academic Work Group The present Academic Review is the second review focusing on publications published between Jan 1, 2014 and January 15, 2015. The previous review concerning published material of the Programme between May 1, 2011 and December 31, 2014 has been reported earlier (Reijula et. al 2014). This time the RYM Oy Ltd invited the following multi-professional team as an Academic Work Group (AWG). AWG had four objectives: • Analyse novelty of research results • Identify the most potential results • Give recommendations to the program management on how to focus the research work in the final phase of the program 8 Indoor Environment Results Report • AWG’s work is expected to contribute to the creation of a new network for young researchers and their work in the thematic area for example through new ideas and facilitating links between researchers. Following faculty scientists were invited to carry out the SECOND REVIEW process: • Professor Kari Reijula, MD, PhD, Professor, Finnish Institute of Occupational Health and Helsinki University, Finland (chair of the AWG) • Professor Göran Lindahl, MD, PhD, Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden • Professor Kwok Wai Tham, PhD, National University of Singapore, Singapore 3. Review process of the AWG • Invitation letter to the AWG members, February 2015 • List of publications sent to the AWG, February 2015 • Time frame for the AWG review: February – April, 2015 • Publications were divided in five (5) groups: • Architecture, design • Economic aspects • Energy savings/sustainability • Quality of indoor air and environment • Technology, HVAC and construction 4. Review of the publications 4.1 Quantitative analysis The outcome of scientific (peer-reviewed) articles and other publications from the four work packages (WP 1-4) is listed in Table 1. Table 1. The number of published articles in four work packages of the RYM SHOK IE-Program (between May 1, 2011 and Oct 25, 2013).

The pitfall of a traditional evaluation, by with the emphasis is focused on quantitative approach, is important to be aware of. However, the final evaluation in an academic – but still valid – way should provide possibilities to highlight the potential of trans- and cross-disciplinary research which projects like the IE – Program have. In the context of built environment research, this is one of the key success factors: the balance between quantified and qualitative data produced and analyzed with both quantitative and qualitative research methods and measures. This is more than needed in the scientific forums of built environment. Published articles in WP 1-4 The number of peer-reviewed articles during the present review period is higher (30) than during the previous review (first 2.5 years of the program). Research groups, which since the beginning of the IE Program, have had available established resources and facilities on this field of research, seem to have succeeded better than others. They have had the opportunity to apply their previous knowledge and resources more effectively in producing publications even in this new field of research. On the other hand, their project plans in the present IE- program must have been closely related to their previous work on the same field of expertise. Nevertheless, the objective of the present program was indeed something new and takes some time, new mindset and especially multi-professional approach in order to be accomplished. The output of WP 1 (User-Centric Indoor Environment) comprises one (1) published peer-reviewed article, one (1) abstract and 22 conference papers. Of the 22 conference papers, nine (9) were disseminated in local conferences and written in Finnish. There were no patent nor technology filings. Although technical solutions are important, the aim of the IE Program emphasizes users’ needs and human perception. The broad spectrum of studies has given new insights to human perceptions and responses to indoor environment conditions and the technologies used to create these conditions. Whilst well-being has been addressed adequately, surprisingly, productivity seems to be given relatively little attention as only a few papers were associated with this theme. The peer reviewed article relates to lighting and LED. Though titled a case study, the research is very well designed, implemented and comprehensive. It has very good measurements and rigorous statistical analysis, and captures human response, perceptions and preference in a very comprehensive way.
