Abstract :
This paper presents an architectural model that can be used in an intelligent building to reduce the operating and maintenance costs and to ensure a higher comfort for the residents. The SOA framework was built during the FCINT project [1] (Ontology-based Service Composition Framework for Syndicating Building Intelligence). In this framework the most important component is the SBC (Smart Building Controller) which interact with physical devices through software services and allows users to define schedules and policies.
