Autonomous Management System Developed for Building and District Levels (AMBASSADOR)

Start date: Nov 1, 2012, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

To solve the energy dilemma, research effort was concentrated on stand-alone buildings weakly tight to their immediate environment. Specifically in each building only key sub-systems were considered individually. Such individual systems were made more effective by becoming pervasive into any building area (the reign of “boxes” and “controllers”). Importing parameters from other sub-systems allowed ...
