BIM assisted Building Automation System information exchange using BACnet and IFC

Highlights Abstract Smart buildings are the trend of the next generation’s commercial buildings that link different building systems together with the Building Automation System (BAS). Building information modeling (BIM) assists in data exchange and information flow. Previous research has explored BAS and BIM integration for energy management, building design optimization and operation, and building fault detection and diagnostics. However, it is rarely seenContinue reading “BIM assisted Building Automation System information exchange using BACnet and IFC”

A Scalable Cyber-Physical System Data Acquisition Framework for the Smart Built Environment

Abstract With the networks of sophisticated sensors and devices, building systems have the potential to serve as the infrastructure that provides essential data for the Internet of things (IoT)-enabled smart city paradigm. However, current building systems lack inter-system connectivity or exposure to the larger networks of IoT devices. In this paper, we propose a scalableContinue reading “A Scalable Cyber-Physical System Data Acquisition Framework for the Smart Built Environment”
