In particular, the book integrates special features into the conventional QFD tool to enhance its performance. These features include a fuzzy multi-criteria decision-making method, fuzzy consensus scheme, and Knowledge Management System (KMS). This integration results in a more robust decision support tool, known as the Knowledge-based Decision Support System QFD (KBDSS-QFD) tool. As an example, the KBDSS-QFD tool is used for the assessment of building envelope materials and designs for high-rise residential buildings in Singapore in the early design stage. The book provides the reader with a conceptual framework for understanding the development of the KBDSS-QFD tool. The framework is presented in a generalized form in order to benefit building professionals, decision makers, analysts, academics and researchers, who can use the findings as guiding principles to achieve optimal solutions and boost efficiency.Sustainable architectureSustainable buildingsDesign and constructionSustainable architecture.Sustainable buildingsDesign and construction.620Natee Singhaputtangkulauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut763015Low Sui Phengauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/autTeo Evelyn A.
