ISO/IEC/TR 14543-4 (2002-05)

This technical report explores the similarities and differences between home and building control systems in an environment where both home and building control interact, namely, a mixed-use residential/commercial building. A logical model for linking building and home control systems is specified. Models showing the organization of application domains, such as energy management and lighting, are included. The option of managing an application domain with a single application controller versus a Fully Distributed System is considered. Methods for overall building management are presented.
