Questions about Energy-Efficient Smart Home Solutions: 1. How does the virtual facilities manager architecture optimize home health? The virtual facilities manager architecture optimizes home health by combining prediction engines with continuously monitored sensor-based and environmental data, allowing for the detection and addressing of abnormal conditions in real-time.
2. What are the key components of the home system configuration manager? The key components of the home system configuration manager include the behavior learning engine and user goal manager, which work together to modify home system configurations over time to address conflicts and refine user goals.
Original Abstract Submitted
the present invention leverages smart home technology to enhance energy efficiency generally and to provide an energy-efficient demand management solution. a home system configuration manager, coupled with a behavior learning engine and a user goal manager, iteratively modify home system configurations over time to address inherent conflicts among (and continuously refine) stated user goals. the present invention further comprises a novel virtual facilities manager architecture that optimizes home health by combining multiple prediction engines, fed by continuously monitored and processed sensor-based and environmental data (historical as well as current), with an integrated homecare network of homeowners and service and other providers. this enables a continuous feedback process which detects and addresses abnormal conditions by issuing contextual alerts with associated actions (related alert-action pairs) in an iterative manner over time. connected providers may thus offer personalized provider services to targeted subsets of existing and prospective customers.
