Most modern public and residential buildings are planned with the objective of decreasing expenses by reducing energy consumption. Enhancing energy preservation strategies and using sustainable design approaches are necessary factors in developing this field. However, many definitions of 'intelligent buildings' are vague and don't mirror all the parameters. Because of the lack of practical context inclusive of the factors that regard the design of such systems, a comprehensive framework containing the convoluted criteria is demanded as a decision-making tool. In this research, a multi-criteria framework composed of sixty-eight sub factors on the core level is proposed as a comprehensive tool for the selective categorization of intelligent buildings. On the secondary level, eight quality condition components are considered as primary factors alongside the factors of energy and environment, space flexibility, cost-effectiveness, client comfort, working efficiency, safety, culture, and technology. By the end of this research, the final findings will endorse the usage of intelligent buildings from two points of view: The first includes a multi-criteria model used to define all factors involved in the design process, and the second proposes a conceptual model which aids in reducing the carbon dioxide emissions.

One of the major trends at present relates to energy consumption and climate change. Construction is responsible for 18% of CO 2 emissions. However, continuing to use fuel as a main source of energy consumption for economic reasons, as it is the cheapest raw material and most easily available material for most of the Arab countries, results in a negative environmental impact on the quality of life in these countries. This paper investigates a new design concept and decision-supporting tools for zero-energy buildings. Based on critical thinking as a new mechanism to create a hierarchy of designing a building, the research presents the experience of the author in teaching architecture courses for postgraduates for five years (ARCH 662: Architecture Design and Decision-Supporting Tools and Arch 663: Advanced Sustainable Architecture). The result of this research could be new methodologies that help and guide the ...
