Design, control and performance aspects of semi-closed greenhouses

Several greenhouse energy saving technologies and management strategies have been developed in order to meet the needs for implementation of production systems with low and efficient energy use and low CO2 emissions. Towards this aim, a number of greenhouse concepts that make use of these technologies have been developed and tested, such as the...

SIOM: A modular extensible software architecture for greenhouse system modelling

Validation of SIOM simulation software using data from a commercial greenhouse with cucumber crop located in Central Greece

A datahub for semantic interoperability in data-driven integrated greenhouse systems

In this paper, we deal with the challenge of semantic alignment of different data sources in the horticultural sector. In this sector, greenhouses are used to grow vegetables and plants and the main goal for a greenhouse grower is to control the climate such that crop is optimally cultivated against the lowest cost. Combining available data...
