Abstract

Building Automation usually involves a large number of systems that should cooperate in order to improve e.g. the user comfort, security, but also decrease the overall energy consumption. One aim of the EU funded SCUBA project is to improve the coordination among devices and systems installed in a building. This paper deals with the extension of a framework dedicated to Building Automation and built on top of the LINC resource-based middleware. Two particular tools developed in SCUBA and that make use of the middleware are also presented together with the encapsulation of the ontology-based Building Automation System model named BASOnt.
