· Benammar, M., Abdaoui, A., Ahmad, S. H., Touati, F., & Kadri, A. (2018). A modular IoT platform for real-time indoor air quality monitoring. Sensors, 18(2), 581.
· Benammar, et.al. Propose a system that monitors and limits the ozone layer that is produced in the office. They proposed an indoor air quality monitoring system that will make offices conducive to work in. they proposed the used of power equipment and wall-to-wall communication to avoid overcrowding. They proposed ways in which elderly people and young individuals would maintain health conditions since they spend most of their time indoors.
· Carrer, P., & Wolkoff, P. (2018). Assessment of indoor air quality problems in office-like environments: Role of occupational health services. International journal of environmental research and public health, 15(4), 741.
· Carrer, P., and Wolkoff are highlighting the concerns about indoor air quality and the impacts it has on the health and comfort of people who work in offices and any other office-like environment. Carrer and Wolkoff have described the plans that the scientific committee of indoor air quality and health have on maintaining conducive environments both in comfort and in health for people who work or spend most of their time in offices.
· Kim, B. J., Park, J., & Jeong, J. W. (2019). Indoor air quality enhancement performance of liquid desiccant and evaporative cooling-assisted air conditioning systems. Sustainability, 11(4), 1036.
· Kim, Park, and Jeong in their article reviewed two ways in which people can use to enhance the indoor air quality in their offices. The two ways the authors suggest are either liquid desiccants or evaporative cooling assisted air conditioning systems to be used in offices. In their review, they discuss which is more appropriate under which conditions and how a person can use them in their offices.
· Al Assaad, D., Ghali, K., & Ghaddar, N. (2018). Effectiveness of intermittent personalized ventilation assisting a chilled ceiling for enhanced thermal comfort and acceptable indoor air quality. Building and Environment, 144, 9-22.
· Al Assaad, Ghali, and Ghaddar in their review discuss the importance of having intermittent personalized ventilation for a person in their offices. They insist on the need of having a personalized office with a chilled ceiling that is enhanced to provide comfort and the required indoor air quality necessary for human health. The authors insist on having a chilled ceiling which will enhance the recycling of air in the office with the use of the air conditioning.

· Bragoszewska and Biedron in their article they review the risks that an individual is exposed to when they do not work under an indoor air quality condition. The review focuses on the impacts of exposure of such individuals to antibiotic-resistant bacterial in the offices they work in.
· Pamonpol, K., Areerob, T., & Prueksakorn, K. (2020). Indoor air quality improvement by simple ventilated practice and Sansevieria Trifasciata. The atmosphere, 11(3), 271.
· Pamonpol, Areerob, and Prueksakorn in their article discuss the importance of having optimum thermal comfort and good air quality condition in the offices and how it is important for the office occupants. The authors highlight the impacts of poor conditioning and they explain the importance of having which type of conditioning in which areas specifically. Their article mainly focuses on informing people on which indoor air quality to use so that they can use low energy consumption.
· Pantelic, J., Rysanek, A., Miller, C., Peng, Y., Teitelbaum, E., Meggers, F., & Schlüter, A. (2018). Comparing the indoor environmental quality of displacement ventilation and passive chilled beam application to conventional air-conditioning in the Tropics. Building and Environment, 130, 128-142.
· Pantelic, et.al. In their article, they try to compare indoor environment qualities of displacement ventilation with a passive chilled beam application to convectional air conditioning in areas of tropics. They measured data between these two and compared it with each other to come up with the best ideas that are necessary for a conducive working condition.
· Mandin, C., Trantallidi, M., Cattaneo, A., Canha, N., Mihucz, V. G., Szigeti, T., … & Bartzis, J. (2017). Assessment of indoor air quality in office buildings across Europe–The OFFICER study. Science of the Total Environment, 579, 169-178.
· Mandarin, et.al. in their review, focused on the assessments conducted by the world health organizations on the building of offices and how they will maintain the health of the office occupants. The review highlights the building objectives that the world health organization has put in place for people who are building offices. The review is concerned majorly with the health of the office occupants.
· Zhang, C., Pomianowski, M., Heiselberg, P. K., & Yu, T. (2020). A review of integrated radiant heating/cooling with ventilation systems-Thermal comfort and indoor air quality. Energy and Buildings, 110094.
· Zhang, Pomianowski, and Heilselberge make a review on the impacts and results of using integrated radiant heating or cooling of offices with ventilation systems. The review was meant to indicate the major advantages and disadvantages of this indoor air quality conditioning method so that a person can decide on which method they can use in their offices depending on their building setup.
