DESCRIPTION:Internet of Things (IoT) deployments offer a much higher value 
 proposition if these can function in the context of smart buildings. Such 
 advanced information and communication technology (ICT) applications in co
 mmercial buildings\, schools\, libraries\, shopping centers\, etc. offer l
 ow cost but highly effective monitoring and control opportunities. Sensors
  deployed in key locations can monitor the building environment in real-ti
 me\, collect information for intelligent decision making\, and facilitate 
 various services. An IoT sensor platform has been developed that provides 
 a unified communication platform which can integrate information from disp
 arate sources and provide one control hierarchy. It is a powerful\, low-co
 st\, open-architecture software platform that can monitor and control majo
 r electrical loads (e.g.\, HVAC\, lighting and plug loads)\, as well as so
 lar PV systems\, energy storage units and other IoT sensors in commercial 
 buildings. The platform can provide new or legacy buildings with a buildin
 g automation system (BAS) or connect with existing BAS systems in large an
 d small commercial buildings. This platform leverages machine learning alg
 orithms to draw insights from a deployed building’s historical operating
  data and occupant preferences to save energy (kWh) while increasing occup
 ant comfort. This also allows buildings to reduce peak demand (kW) through
  direct communication with utilities using demand response protocols such 
 as openADR.\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/237072
