Description
Smart building systems are building components that exhibit characteristics analogous to human intelligence. These characteristics include drawing conclusions from data or analyses of data rather than simply generating more data or plots of data, interpreting information or data to reach new conclusions, and making decisions and/or taking action autonomously without being explicitly instructed or programmed to take the specific action. These capabilities are usually associated with software, but they can also be possessed by hardware with embedded software code, or firmware. The line between systems that are “smart” and “not smart” is blurry, and, for purposes of this chapter, does not need to be absolutely defined. The purpose of this chapter is to introduce readers to emerging technologies that possess some of these smart characteristics.
