Currently in beta.
StROBe (Stochastic Residential Occupancy Behaviour) is an open web tool developed at the KU Leuven Building Physics Section to model the pervasive space for residential integrated district energy assessment simulations in the open IDEAS modeling environment (among others). Primarily conceived as a tool for scientific researchers, StROBe aims at providing missing boundary conditions in integrated district energy assessment simulations related to human behavior, such as the use of appliances and lighting, space heating settings and domestic hot water redrawals.
StROBe is also highly customizable and extensible, accepting model changes or extensions defined by users. For more information on the implementation, see the [GitHub Wiki] (https://github.com/rubenbaetens/ProclivityPy/wiki).
###Dependencies
StROBe is implemented in Python and uses the packages Os, Numpy, Random, Time, Datetime and Ast, which are all generally available.
###Examples
family = Household("Example family")
family.parameterize()
family.simulate()
