Some lines about background regarding education
and work Vojislav Novakovic has more than 30
years of experience in research, development and
teaching in the area of heating, ventilation and
air-conditioning of built environment. He is full
professor in energy efficiency in buildings at
the Department of Energy and Process Engineering,
Faculty of Engineering Science and Technology at
the Norwegian University of Science and
Technology since 1994. He obtained his MSc degree
at the Faculty of Mechanical Engineering,
University of Belgrade, Serbia and Dr.ing. degree
at the Norwegian Institute of Technology. He has
participated and managed numerous national and
international projects and collaborative
activities. His current main field of interests,
besides the ZEB project, is life-time
commissioning for energy efficient operation of
buildings.
Some lines about non-professional background
Many years ago, when I came to Trondheim to start
my PhD, I had already good connections with
Norway and Norwegians. I got this through my
father who during the World War II was a German
prisoner in Norway for three years. During his
imprisonment he got many good Norwegian friends
and after the liberation, back in Yugoslavia, he
was active in the friendship association. I have
now lived the largest part of my life in Norway
but still have good relations with my country of
origin both through family and friends but also
through several cooperative projects in higher
education. My spare time I like to spend together
with family and friends chatting, preparing food,
hiking, cycling or skiing. Now, since I become
grandpa, I want to spend more time with
grandchildren.

Some lines about non-professional background
Before arriving in Norway, I always lived and
worked in the south French-spoken part of
Belgium, the Walloon Region. This region has a
rich cultural heritage and a beautiful nature,
but is, most probably, best known for its
fantastic beers admired throughout the world, or
maybe the entire universe. Curious by nature, I
lead me to heterogeneous interests like in sport
(badminton), outdoor activities (hiking and
travelling by bike) or in art (drawing). I am
also interested in good fantastic and
science-fiction movies as well as literature. For
the time being, I am struggling to learn
cross-country skiing in order to enjoy the
incomparable Norwegian nature and way of life.

Some lines about non-professional background
In 2005 I came to Norway. I grew up in a small
town Majdanpek, located in the east part of
Serbia. Since my nineteen until I moved to
Norway, I lived in Belgrade. Still I have good
contacts with my family and friends in Serbia,
and therefore every summer holiday I am going
there. Since I prefer healthy food, I like to
cook. In free time I am interested in literature,
sewing, and knitting. After I came to Norway I
have started actively to bike, do cross-country
skiing, and play golf.
