Simple mathematical models to link climate-based daylight metrics with daylight factor metrics and daylighting design implications [PDF]
Heliyon, 2023 Determination of interior daylight illuminance is the key step in daylighting schemes. Recently, climate-based daylight metrics (CBDMs) which considers the real climatic data for the location has been adopted to evaluate the dynamic daylight performance.

Sustainable Architecture and Human Health: A Case for Effective Circadian Daylighting Metrics
BuildingsThe development of the fluorescent lamp and the air-conditioning system resulted in buildings being lit inexpensively without having to rely on daylighting to save energy, as was the case during the incandescent lamp era.

Daylight metrics and energy savings [PDF]
Lighting Research & Technology, 2009 The drive towards sustainable, low-energy buildings has increased the need for simple, yet accurate methods to evaluate whether a daylit building meets minimum standards for energy and human comfort performance. Current metrics do not account for the temporal and spatial aspects of daylight, nor of occupants comfort or interventions. This paper reviews
