Smart life, buildings are sometimes referred to as automated buildings, intelligent buildings, connected buildings or buildings that incorporate smart technology. However, it is a fairly ambiguous term that at its most basic level has been used to describe buildings that include technologies (automated systems, intelligent building management systems, energy efficiency measures, wireless technologies, digital infrastructure, adaptive energy systems, networked appliances, data gathering devices, information and communications networks, assistive technologies, remote monitoring. It centers on the use of interconnected technologies to make buildings more intelligent and responsive, ultimately improving their performance. At present, many building systems operate independently, and many are inherently inefficient as they lack the monitoring capability that would enable them to adapt effectively to different conditions or modes of operation.
