Mathematical models devoted to different aspects of building studies and brought about a significant shift in the way we view buildings.From this background a new definition of building has emerged known as intelligent building that requires integration of a variety of computer-based complex systems.Research relevant to intelligent continues to grow at a much faster pace.This paper is a review of different mathematical models described in literature,which make use of different mathematical methodologies,and are intended for intelligent building studies without complex mathematical details.Models are discussed under a wide classification.Mathematical abstract level of the applied models is detailed and integrated with its literature.The goal of this paper is to present a comprehensive account of the achievements and status of mathematical models in intelligent building research,and to suggest future directions in models.
