Programs that are easier to use generally do not show the calculation capabilities required in practice. A second obstacle arises as the lighting calculations often do not allow any statements regarding the interactions with the energetic and thermal building performance.  \nBoth problems are mainly due to a lacking integration of the design tools of other building design practitioners as well as due to insufficient user interfaces. The program package ADELINE (Advanced Daylight and Electric Lighting Integrated New Environment) being available since May 1996 as completely revised version 2.0 presents a promising approach to solve these problems.  \nThis contribution describes the approaches and methods used within the international project IEA Task 21 for a further development of the ADELINE system. Aim of this work is a further improvement of user interfaces based on the inclusion of new dialogs and on a portation of the program system from MS-DOS to the Windows NT platform. Additional focus is laid on the use of recent developments in the field of information technology and experiences gained in other projects on integrated building design systems, like for example EU-COMBINE, in a pragmatical way. An integrated building design system with open standardized interfaces is to be achieved inter alia by using ISOSTEP formats, database technologies and a consequent, object-oriented design.  \nTHE ADELINE PROGRAM SYSTEM The initial version of the ADELINE program system, released in 1994, was developed by an international working group within Subtask A.2 in the framework of IEA Task XII. Involved in the development of the design tool have been  \n• Fraunhofer Institute of Building Physics, Germany (Task lead),  \n• Danish Building Research Institute, Denmark,• Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne,  \nSwitzerland,  \n• Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory, U.S.A.,  \n• Swiss Material Testing Institute EMPA, Switzerland.  \nThe objective was to develop an integrated lighting analysis tool for building design purposes which is intended to assist the building designer and consultant in all issues associated with daylighting and electric lighting design.  \nIn May 1996 the completely revised version 2.0 was released as result of the continous collaborative work of the international working group [Erhorn and Stoffel 1996] . Since the first release of the software package more than 250 copies have been distributed world-wide. The majority of the users are coming from the private and industrial sector, [i.e. lighting](i.e. lighting)[ ](i.e. lighting)and energy consultants, architects, lighting and glazing industry. The program is also widely used at universities and other research institutes. Extensive support like introductory seminars and hotline service is offered to assist users in the application of the program system.  \nThe ADELINE program system [Figure 1] represents an integration of several program modules required for an integrated lighting design enabeling  \n• day- and artifical lighting simulation as well as consideration of  \n• the energetic and thermal impact of the lighting strategies under investigation.  \nGeometric input of the lighting simulation programs is handled by a common CAD program, SCRIBE MODELLER [Green, Cooper and Wells 1989] and special converters. In addition, a 3D-DXF interface enables the user to use any CAD program that can handle drawings in 3D-DXF format.
