Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for generating a flow control plan for a plurality of components in a flow control system. A decentralized multi-agent control framework is used to plan and schedule for each agent independently without a central processor. Each agent of the multi-agent control framework separately optimizes a local portion of the system as a function of values for one or more parameters. Agents communicate with other connected agents, sharing values for parameters. The communication provides a negotiation and consensus for values of the shared parameters that are used by the agent to recalculate optimized parameters values for the local portion of the system.

Abstract: A system for checking security vulnerabilities for automation system design includes a security database, an Internet crawler application, and security service application. The security database stores descriptions of known software vulnerabilities related to an automation system. The Internet crawler application is configured to systematically browse the Internet to find new software vulnerabilities related to the automation system and index the new software vulnerability into the security database. The security service application retrieves, from the security database, potential software vulnerabilities related to a hardware/software configuration of the automation system. The security service application also identifies policies related to the potential vulnerabilities. Each policy describes a potential vulnerability and action to be performed in response to detection of the potential vulnerabilities. The security service applies the policies to the hardware/software configuration and software code corresponding to an automation application to identify actual vulnerabilities that can be displayed to a user.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of splitting whole building energy consumption includes collecting sensor data from a plurality Variable Air Volume (VAV) boxes in a building, an electric meter in the building, and a gas meter in the building. The total heating energy consumption is split across a plurality of zones within the building using the sensor data, thereby yielding heating energy consumption for each zone. The total cooling energy consumption is split across the plurality of zones using the sensor data, thereby yielding cooling energy consumption for each zone and the total ventilation energy consumption is split across the plurality of zones using the sensor data, thereby yielding ventilation energy consumption for each zone. Zone energy consumption by aggregating the heating energy consumption for the zone, the cooling energy consumption for the zone, and the ventilation energy consumption for the zone.

Abstract: A building has climate control equipment which controls a temperature at different locations. Different locations may be in different control zones controlled by different control devices. An occupant of a location submits a desired location temperature through a user interface on a computing device to a networked server. Setting of a desired temperature is constrained by energy saving policies and by conditions of surrounding locations. An arbitrator device determines based on constraints a new temperature setting. The new temperature setting is accompanied by an energy saving feedback. The occupants confirms the new setting. A climate control device is instructed to apply a device setting to achieve the new temperature. A climate profile of the occupant is learned from previous temperature settings by the occupant.

Abstract: A cloud-based system for controlling the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) is used as the communication path between a pilot and his/her UAV, eliminating the direct communication between pilot and vehicle. The cloud-basedUAV control system is configured to include both “control apps” associated with the actual flight of a UAV and “mission-specific apps” that include a set of instructions for a specific mission (i.e., performing energy audit of an industrial complex). The control apps preferably include flight regulations (as provided by the FAA, for example) that are used define “no-fly zones”. Other legitimate government (or non-government) agencies may provide “electric fence” control apps to the cloud-based system, thus preventing UAVs from entering protected areas. The UAVs interacting with the control system are intelligent, able to receive specific mission-based applications from the control system, allowing the UAVs to collect a wide variety of useful information.
