Course Description: |
The course is an advanced class for graduate students who are interested in learning the main characteristics, requirements and technologies used in the most typical smart building scenarios. The course aims to provide tools for the analysis and design of building automation systems. Specifically, at the end of the course the student will be able to: analyze a use case scenario and the requirements necessary for its implementation, with particular attention to the reference building, users, system managers, and required functionalities; design a smart building system and its main components (i.e. devices to be installed, application control, user interfaces, data storage, communication network), providing cost-benefit analysis. There is no textbook for this course. Lecture notes and reading papers will be distributed in the class. The course is going to be instructed in English. Lecture topics: Lecture 1: Introduction to the course and to the main concepts related to Smart Buildings (2 hours)
Lecture 2: The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) of a Building Automation System (BAS) - I part (3 hours)
Lecture 3: The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) of a Building Automation System (BAS) - II part (3 hours)
