-BIO-met supports **PMV/PPD** (Predicted mean vote), **PET*** (Physiologal Equivalent Temperature reviewed), **UTCI** (Universal Thermal Climate Index) and **SET* ** (Standard Effective Temperature), but more are likely to be integrated. +BIO-met supports **PMV/PPD** (Predicted mean vote), **PET*** (Physiologal Equivalent Temperature reviewed), **dPET** Dynamic PET,  **UTCI** (Universal Thermal Climate Index) and **SET* ** (Standard Effective Temperature), but more are likely to be integrated. 
  The indices vary in their level of complexity and therefore calculation time. While UTCI is regression based and quick, PMV requires the iterative solution of one energy balance equation and PET requires the solution of two of them and is hence much more calculation time expensive. BIO-met supports parallel calcuation to speed up the simulations.  The indices vary in their level of complexity and therefore calculation time.
