	abstract = {Complex Fenestration Systems (CFS) are those that incorporate a nonspecular layer within the glazing assembly, such as a shading device. CFS  are  often  used  in  buildings  for  simultaneously  enhance  thermal and visual comfort and reducing energy consumption. Currently existing tools allow performing efficient lighting and thermal annual simulations of spaces with CFS. However, carrying out a detailed integrated lighting/thermal analysis is a complex task that cannot yet be transferred to industry. A tool for simplifying this process is required. This article presents a methodology for performing simple integrated thermal/lighting  analysis  of  spaces  with  controlled  CFS  and  artificial lighting  during  the  design  stage.  Such  methodology  uses  Radiance’s genBSDF program for characterizing CFS and a new Radiance-based program called mkSchedule, which helps integrating the lighting and thermal simulations. This paper demonstrates how the proposed methodology works by performing an integrated annual analysis of an office space with controlled CFS and artificial lighting.},
