3. IntroducFon Smart  or  Smarter  Buildings     3   Achieve  being  smart  through  a  set  of  monitoring  and   control  devices  installed  across  the  building  
4. IntroducFon Building  Automa8on  Systems   4   •  Automa8on  Systems  provide  the  glue  that  enables  the   monitoring/control  of  those  devices  either  remotely  or  manually   •  Communica8on  is  done  through  dedicated  sensor  networks,  in  a   decentralized  fashion  
5. IntroducFon Energy  Management  Systems   5   •  ScaKered,  decentralized  and  basic  hardware  controllers  enable   data  gathering  and  actua8on  over  a  building   •  A  centralized  management  system,  collects  that  informa8on  and   provides  ac8onable  data  to  facility  managers

7. Problem 7   Statement   •  Building  Automa8on  Systems  solu8ons  are  vendor-­‐specific  and   based  in  puRng  control  logic  inside  hardware  controllers       •  Energy  Efficiency  Techniques  programmed  directly  on  hardware   controllers  are  difficult  to  manage  and  update   •  There  is  no  literature  documen8ng  a  framework  for  energy   efficiency  techniques  through  soVware  
8. Problem 8   Impact   •  Is  it  possible  to  create  an  hardware-­‐independent    framework     enabling  development  of  applica8on  for  buildings?   •  Can  such  framework  enable  the  deployment  of  energy   efficiency  applica8ons  for  mul8ple  buildings?   •  Such  framework  would  allow  provider  independence,     thus  abolishing  vendor  lock-­‐in  prac8ces

12. Related  Work Middleware  for  BASs   12   Middleware  for  BASs  exists,  but  none  seems  to  solve  the   infrastructure  problem  referred  earlier.

17. Related  Work Discussion   17   •  BEMS  features  are  known,  therefore  the  variability  of   applica8on  needs  are  low!   •  Middleware  for  BASs  exists,  but  they  are  merely  means  to   achieve  actua8on  and  sensing  over  devices   •  There  is  a  lack  on  the  literature  regarding  the  documenta8on   of  a  framework  for  BEMSs

36. Conclusions 36   •  BAS  by  themselves  are  not  enough  to  implement  EE  techniques,   soVware  is  more  flexible  and  is  easy  to  update   •  EMSs  provide  closed  solu8ons,  promo8ng  vendor  lock-­‐in  and  are   not  documented  in  literature   •  To  the  best  of  our  knowledge  there  is  a  gap  in  the  literature   regarding  a  framework  for  implemen8ng  EE  techniques  through   soVware   •  We  did  our  best  to  assess  our  solu8on  technically,  prac8cally  and   theore8cally
