What is an intelligent building?
A building…
• who’s systems are self reliant
• with sensors relaying data
• that uses the latest technology
• that is the future of buildings
Anthony Piscielli : Intelligent Building
Definitions
Smart Building:
A building that provides a productive and cost-effective
environment through optimization of its four basic
components - structure, systems, services and management -
and the interrelationships between them."
Source: Intelligent Buildings Institute (IBI)
Kjeld Svidt, Aalborg University 29.11.2002
Intelligent buildings are buildings that through their
physical design and IT installations are responsive,
flexible and adaptive to changing needs from its users and
the organisations that inhabit the building during it's life
time. The building will supply services for its inhabitants,
its administration and operation & maintenance. The
intelligent building will accomplish transparent
'intelligent' behaviour, have state memory, support human
and installation systems communication, and be equipped
with sensors and actuators.

being built with complex
building automation
systems
• Sensors and control
systems create rich
information streams
• Access to these streams
is restricted
• This information could be
useful to building users
as well as administrators

What are the known problems and likely
development paths?
Which techniques to use in
What's important inside a smart building?
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
What’s important?
• A smart building should
– improve occupants'
comfort,
– achieve energy
savings where
possible,
– avoid or reduce
damages by sending
warnings
– increase security
compared to the
traditional.
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
• How?
– Using the
cheapening power
of communication
and computing we
have at our reach
today
– Forcing the
subsystems to work
together, not
independently (or
even against each
other)
Improving comfort. Control Quality
• Get rid of open loop
– Heating example: most of the installed water based
heating systems are primitive, setting the on-flow
temperature according to the current outdoor
temperature (not interested in the actual result at all)
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Improving comfort. Control Quality
– If the actual result is not measured by the control
system, then no disturbances from the sun radiation
or wind can be compensated
– Room thermostats are common to take actual
temperature into account, but due to the thermal
inertia the result of their action is a fluctuation around
the setpoint temperature
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Improving comfort. Control Quality
– The solution: closed loop control
• Single loop for simple cases
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Improving comfort. Control Quality
• Cascaded loops for real life (with limit settings)
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Improving comfort. Control Quality
– The amount of time shifting depends
• On change direction
• On building parameters (heat losses, installed power of heating)
• On “step height” of the outdoor temperature drop or increase
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
– Weather forecast can be used well before the
significant change in the outdoor environment
conditions, for time shifted
• change in the setpoints
• heating stopping before the outdoor temperature increase
Use predictive information
Achieve savings. General
• In some cases improving the control quality will already result in
energy savings as well (by avoiding unnecessary heating)
• Other things to do
– Eliminate the unnecessary energy spendings
• like simultaneous heating and cooling…
– Use the hourly tariff and time-shift the electricity consumption peaks
if possible
• washing the dishes in the cheapest hours
• storing the heating energy into a tank wisely
• Switch off heat pump during peak hours if possible
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Achieve savings. Dishwasher example
• There are no diswashers (to my knowledge) that
can find the cheapest hour on their own
• But they all continue after the power break from
where they were
• So start the washer and press a button (actual or
virtual) to stop the process
• Power will be returned on time to use the
cheapest possible time to be ready with the
washing before the next morning
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Achieve savings. Heat pump example
• With air-to-air heat pumps the efficiency of the
pump depends on the outdoor temperature (may
even drop below 1 during cold weather!)
• Depending on the availability of other sources of
energy (gas, wood, direct electric heating) it may
be reasonable to switch between them
depending on the hourly prices on electric
energy
• …Or just switch off the heat pump during the
peak hours.
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Achieve savings. Direct heating example
• If a storage tank is in use for nightly
heating, replace the primitive day/night
tariff switching or simple timer based
control with a price-aware solution
• Estimating how much heat energy is
needed next day, charge the tank with
heat energy during the cheapest hours
• Charge to the needed level only (not more)
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Avoiding damages. Water leakage example
• Water leaks are costly and hard to detect
– Water can make more harm than fire
– Water detectors cannot be installed everywhere
• A water meter with good (1 liter) resolution will
help, if (any of the following)
– the water consumption pattern is known
– building occupancy is know
– movements in the rooms can be detected
• Some decision-making power is needed.
Doable.
Neeme Takis : Smart buildings influencing the living environment
Avoiding damages. Equipment monitoring
• The increased relative to the historical average
(and working conditions) energy consumption of
one or another device may be a signal of
– Improperly closed refrigerator door
– Loss of cooling agent in the cooling system
– Decreased efficiency of pumps or filters
• A professional can see the abnormalities and
raise warnings by looking at the trending graphs
• The building automation system should do the
same based on historical and current data

  4. The audio, video, lighting scene related aspects of smart living have never really interested me. For me the health and optimal operation of technical systems has always been the important thing. Unlike with music and video, or voice command to the curtains, here the automation outperforms a human. It is time to put the systems work together.
  5. Absolute majority of heating control systems are simple or even primitive. They are not really interested on the end result. Their interest is on providing hor water with temperature inversely proportional to the outdoor temperature.
  6. The cure is to add thermostats, woks well enough with radiators, but not with heated floor, having a remarkable thermal inertia. Thing is the floor surface continues to heat up for some hours after the flow of warm water is closed. And it continues to cool down for for a while after the water flow is opened again.
  7. Weather forecast are a good thing to fight with the effects of thermal inertia. It allows to start or stop heating a calculated number number of hours before the outdoor temperature change takes place. That time of looking into the future is different for the outdoor temperature drop of increase, because the stored heat energy leaves the building slower than arrives. THe heat energy leaves via insulation and ventilation, but can arrives by the full power of the heating system.

  10. Slide 10: Why health organizations need IoT Key Points: Getting started on the Internet of Things NOW will enable you to transform your health organization IoT helps health providers build smarter operations, improve patient care, increase business agility, and gain better insights Talk Track: Once you get past all the confusion and noise and realize just how simple and powerful IoT can be, the next question becomes, “What can it do for my health organization? Why does it matter?” Let’s go through the chief reasons: Build smarter operations Implement preventative and predictive maintenance on medical devices to eliminate machine down-time and reduce costs. Monitor and manage hospital infrastructure to optimize energy consumption and reduce maintenance costs. Track the location of devices and supplies in real time to ensure the right supplies are always in the right location and reduce paper trace. Improve patient care Track patient health conditions in real time regardless of the patient’s physical location to improve care quality and outcomes. Track patient’s response to therapy and drugs in real time and monitor when a patient takes prescribed pills, allowing providers to take preventative actions and better manage chronic conditions. Remote health monitoring enables better access to medical services for more people, like people living in remote areas or elderly people. Provide better patient experiences with interactive targeted device experiences. Increase business agility Enhance operational performance management with better, faster insights. Real-time data insights can help providers respond more quickly to patient needs and population health management. Accelerate innovation internally and externally with insights shared across functions and partners. Implement new ideas and scale easily using cloud-based solutions without heavy capital investment. Gain better insights Gain real-time operational insight to run your healthcare business with more efficiency and intelligence. Gain real-time insights through continuously monitoring patient health conditions and behaviors to drive more timely and personalized care and improve outcomes. Use predictive analytics to identify patterns and predict trends to improve patient care outcomes and reduce costs.
