These challenges are major challenges in this current century and are likely to be amongthegreatestandmostseriousissuesthathumanitywillencounterinthecomingcenturies. Infact,thenegativeimpactoftheseenvironmentalproblemsisalreadynoticeable.Humanityhas toimmediatelyacttomitigatetheimpactofthesechallenges.Inthisregard,creatingsustainable buildingsandcitiesandusingrenewableenergyresourcesarefundamentalprinciplesthatshould guide the design of our future built environment. This book addresses some issues related to sustainability in the developing countries. It is a necessary resource for researchers, planners, urban designers, architects, policy makers, and those who have a role in shaping our built environment. The aim of this book is to contribute to the creation of a more sustainable built environment in the developing countries by careful consideration from the early design stage. Beingaculminationofhighlyregardedresearchpapersthataimtoeducatereadersaboutthe importanceofimprovingsustainabilityindevelopingcountries,thisbookattemptstoemphasize, enhance,andspreadtheroleofurbandesignersandarchitectsinimprovingthequalityofthebuilt environment in countries where the sustainability concept is still to be a common stream. The book discusses important issues related to sustainability in the developing countries such as energy-savingmeasuresinbuildingsandcities,thepotentialofrenewableenergyresources,and theuseofefficientandsustainablebuildingmaterialsalongwithotherdesignissuesandtechnical solutionsthatcouldhelptoenhancetheenvironmentalefficiency.Nonetheless,thebookdiscusses the role of digital tools and simulation in the design process of a sustainable built environment. The book is a compilation of carefully selected papers participated in the conferences organizedbyIEREKindifferent partsoftheWorld.Allchaptersofthisbookweresubjected to rigorous and careful blinded peer-review process as well as a review process by the book editors and book series editors. This book is a valuable resource for scholars looking for cutting-edge research and inspiration for future research agenda. It is also a guide for academics who are looking to update their knowledge in the fields of sustainability, urban planning, and renewable energy. Theresearchandmaterialsinthisbookarealsodirectedtothosewhoareactivelyengagedin the decision-making processes and at a heterogeneous audience who has an interest to criti- cally examine the new literature available in the field. A special mention should be made to the editors of this book and to all the authors and co-authors of the chapters who collectively provided the academic community with unique and increasingly valuable literature.
