Evaluating Intelligence In Intelligent Buildings Case Studies In TurkeyFarzin Moghaddam, Maryam 01 July 2012 (has links) (PDF)
Advances in technologies and the idea of incorporating technological solutions into buildings have made it possible to provide more comfortable and secure spaces for living or working. The term &ldquo / intelligent building&rdquo / is becoming very popular in terms of attaching prestige to a project and improving its desirability. However too many buildings are claimed to be intelligent and adaptive to change but, without an appropriate understanding of intelligent building concept and also capabilities of assessing an intelligent building, it is not possible to judge such claims. In view of the fact that truly intelligent buildings provide their occupants with efficient facilities and comfortable space, many experts and researchers have discussed the characteristics of intelligent buildings and come up with different definitions and assessment systems, but none agree with each other completely.
The aim of this study was to evaluate intelligence in intelligent buildings and provide responsiveness clues in terms of system efficiency and user convenience to find out whether buildings claimed to be intelligent meet the intelligence requirements or not.
v
After conducting a literature survey to identify main intelligence characteristics, two buildings both claimed to be intelligent and able to provide occupants with healthy, secure and comfortable space, were selected as the case studies. The intelligent building principals and specific design considerations together with efficient system integration and system requirements were examined in the case studies. It was concluded that, even though case studies were admired in terms of holding commercial value and applying new technologies but there existed a lack in either employing or incorporating that technologies to meet desired responsiveness and dynamism which, are main attributes of intelligent buildings.

Abstract
Due to the development and proliferation of information and communication technologies, people¡¦s daily lives are indispensably relied on these tools. Based on concepts of safety, energy conservation, convenience, and comfort, intelligent buildings¡¦ designs have gradually become the main stream of the present and future architectures. Taiwan introduced the idea of the intelligent building since 1989. With the push of the automatic idea of the building, the security and surveillance systems integrators had become the new popular industry and the competition of the industry is more and more fierce. Understanding the key successful factors objectively is important of making administrative decision to security and surveillance systems integrator managers.
In view of this, this research adopts the expert focus group interview and analytic hierarchy process theory. The author interview 10 high-level experts of the security and surveillance systems integrators and 10 customer experts of intelligence building traders to develop a set of the key success factors appraisal procedure to the security and surveillance systems integrators for intelligent buildings. Based on enterprise factor, staffs factor, and products factor, the author calculate the ranks and weights of the criterion and sub-criterion of the key successful factors. This can offer the security and surveillance systems integrator managers for intelligent buildings to make administrative decision. The study chooses three companies as an example to do empirical study, and compares their advantage and performance of the key successful factors.
The result of study finds as follows. In criterion, the most important is produce factor, the less is staffs factor, and the end is enterprise factor. In sub-criterion, the most important is staff's professional ability technology, the less are price, products diversification, and customize degree. In ranks and weights, the last are productions separately, organized scale, and popularity and impressions. The conclusion can offer the security and surveillance systems integrator managers for intelligent buildings to make administrative decision.

Intelligent Building Envelopes : Architectural Concept & Applications for Daylighting QualityWyckmans, Annemie January 2005 (has links)
During the past few decades, the term intelligent building envelope has emerged as a building skin designed to meet increasingly varying and complex demands related to user comfort and energy and cost efficiency. The concept is described by a multitude of definitions that range from the use of innovative components and a high-tech visual expression to the rational design, use and maintenance of the building envelope. Within the scope of this Ph.D., intelligent behaviour for a building envelope has been defined as adaptiveness to the environment by means of perception, reasoning and action, allowing the envelope to solve conflicts and deal with new situations that occur in its interaction with the environment, i.e., the local climate and site, and the individual user needs. This definition is used to analyse the functions an intelligent building envelope can be expected to perform in the context of daylighting quality, or an optimisation of the indoor luminous environment to the requirements of the individual building occupant. Of particular importance is the co-operation between artificial intelligence and the material, form and composition of envelope elements, allowing the envelope to learn the occupant’s needs and preferences, to choose the most appropriate response in each situation, to make long-term strategies, to anticipate the development of environmental conditions, and to evaluate its own performance. Simultaneously, it is found that adaptive envelope solutions in no manner reduce the need for envelope design meticulously adjusted to local climate and site and to individual user needs, developed in close co-operation between architects, engineers and manufacturers. All of the sources consulted during the course of this Ph.D. stress time and time again how difficult it is to control the operation of the envelope components according to the local environment, and, simultaneously, how important it is to do so.

Diploma thesis deals with the problems of system installations. The system installation is presented as an installation, where the light switch does not serve for interrupt a power circuit, but it serves as a sensor, which directs the status change of actuator, that makes the own manipulation with a power circuit. In the first chapter the diploma thesis presents the history of the system installation development depending on the demand for the system regulation in buildings centrally and complexly. There are also summarize advantages and disadvantages of installations, which are used in these days. In the second chapter, the system installations are devided into centralized and decentralized systems. The centralized systems are constructionally simpler as well the communication, but the whole system is more inclinable to fail. The decentralized systems are more complicated, more expensive, but more reliable and they have also potentiality to extand. Two decentralized systems, nowadays the most used, are further presented – KNX and LonWorks. They are used especially for the administration buildings control. Then the diploma thesis presents both some systems, which are used abroad, and the situation at the Czech market, whereas there is described the system INELS, which is made by Elko ep. Limited Company. The goal of the thesis, which is mentioned in the third chapter, is to present the system installations, design a panel with this installation including the panel´s handmade, and then on this panel demonstrate the panel´s using for education in laboratory practices.

Modelagem de sistemas de proteção técnica contra incêndio em edifícios inteligentes através de rede de Petri. / Modeling of fire protection systems in intelligent building through Petri net.Kaneshiro, Percy Javier Igei 01 December 2006 (has links)
O sistema de proteção técnica contra incêndio (SPTCI) é um dos principais sistemas que compõem o edifício inteligente (EI), pois a eficiência do seu funcionamento afeta diretamente a segurança das pessoas e o patrimônio do prédio. O SPTCI é composto de diferentes dispositivos, estratégias de controle e atua segundo legislação específica. Devido à complexidade do SPTCI, torna-se fundamental uma modelagem adequada que permita verificar a dinâmica do sistema e sua relação com outros sistemas prediais. Neste contexto, este trabalho propõe um procedimento para a modelagem e análise de estratégias de controle para o SPTCI, integrado com outros sistemas prediais dentro do contexto de EI. A abordagem considerada para este propósito baseia-se na teoria dos sistemas a eventos discretos, na aplicação de técnicas derivadas da rede de Petri e em técnicas de análise através de simulação discreta. Com esta abordagem são desenvolvidos modelos do sistema de controle do SPTCI onde é considerada a sua relação com outros sistemas prediais. Particularmente, explora-se as extensões da rede de Petri como as técnicas Production Flow Schema e Mark Flow Graph. Um estudo de caso é apresentado para ilustrar as principais características deste procedimento. / From the point of view of property damage and personal security, the fire protection system (FPS) is one of the most important systems in an intelligent building (IB). The FPS is composed of several devices and control strategies. Furthermore, it must act in accordance with specific laws. As a consequence the design of FPSs is a complex task and it is very important to provide an adequate model that supports the verification of the FPS dynamics and its integration with others building systems, facilitating its test and validation. In this context, this work proposes a procedure to model in a systematic and rational way a FPS in the IB context. Considering the nature of the structure and processes of FPS the approach is based on the discrete event dynamic system theory and the application of the Petri net. Then, the models the FPS control system and the controlled plant must include its integration with other building systems. Particularly, it explores Petri net extensions such as Production Flow Schema and Mark Flow Graph techniques. Through an example it is illustrated the main aspects of the proposed procedure.
