In this paper the idea of functioning of Building Management Systems and Object Management Systems in intelligent buildings is presented. New functionalities of intelligent buildings resulting from the introduction of microgeneration are described. Low-Power Wide-Area Networks (LPWAN) are characterized and compared. The selected Long-Range (LoRaWAN) technology is tested for its use for communication with energy meters and monitoring the power supply network in intelligent buildings. In the paper a new system for reading and monitoring the network is proposed, consisting of hardware, communication, and application layers. A key element of the system is a specially developed converter, which has been designed and tested in a real urban environment. Using our solution in practice could allow to change the architecture of a measurement data acquisition system to much more flexible and efficient.

The paper presents the application of Internet of thing (IoT) in managing smart buildings and a proposal to study some of the functions, applications of building management system (BMS) in monitoring, controlling and using electricity effectively for high-rise buildings. Currently, high-rise buildings consume about 33% of global electricity. Managing energy consumption in the buildings is very important when the demand for electricity is increasing. Existing building management systems have high costs and reveal many weaknesses in data collection. Therefore, using the ARIMAX algorithm for predicts temperature, humidity and the amount of electricity that will be consumed in building which helps operators always plan to prepare the necessary energy source for the building, ensuring the electric energy is always provided fully, continuously and effectively

The article presents the results of IT research in the processes of creation and operation of construction projects. An overview of the means of complex accounting automation in Ukraine is given. An overview of the market of computer-aided design tools for architecture and construction is given also their characteristics are given. An overview of integrated market management systems in Ukraine is presented. The field of application of information technologies is constantly expanding, and growing constantly require monitoring of new implementations and search for effective innovations. Awareness provides a competitive advantage for both the developer and the consumer. Thus, the task of IT monitoring arises, and in the presence of a common area of interest, a team of like-minded people faces the problem of IT research in the processes of creation and operation of construction projects. IT in the process of creating and operating construction projects is used in all life cycles of the latter. The software that serves these processes is diverse and mostly disparate and is a set of software products aimed at sectoral use [1]. The issue of introduction of modern IT in this area is relevant and there is a need for development by specialists, which requires their study. The software used can generally be divided into: general purpose software; specialized accounting programs and other accounting systems; computer-aided design systems; integrated management systems of the organization; building management systems; scheduling systems. The so-called specialized accounting programs and accounting systems presented on the Ukrainian market in the construction sector are the same as for other sectors of the economy, there are only certain adaptations to take into account the specifics of the scope. At this stage of economic development of Ukraine in the construction industry ERP systems have not yet become widespread. Building management systems are also waiting to be expanded in Ukraine.

Buildings, viewed as cyber-physical systems, become smart by deploying Building Management Systems (BMS). They should be aware about the state and environment of the building. This is achieved by developing a sensing system that senses different interesting factors of the building, called as “facets of sensing.” Depending on the application, different facets need to be sensed at various locations. Existing approaches for sensing these facets consist of deploying sensors at all the places so they can be sensed directly. But installing numerous sensors often aggravate the issues of user inconvenience, cost of installation and maintenance, and generation of e-waste. This article proposes how intelligently using the existing information can help to estimate the facets in cyber-physical systems like buildings, thereby reducing the sensors to be deployed. In this article, an optimization framework has been developed, which optimally deploys sensors in a building such that it satisfies BMS requirements with minimum number of sensors. The proposed solution is applied to real-world scenarios with cyber-physical systems. The results indicate that the proposed optimization framework is able to reduce the number of sensors by 59% and 49% when compared to the baseline and heuristic approach, respectively.
