title = "Interactive refinement of distributed Control/WSAN design for optimal building operation systems",
abstract = "Control systems which are embedded in a Wireless Sensor/Actuator Network (WSAN) can perform sub-optimally if the control system and WSAN are designed independently. In Building Management System (BMS) applications, such sub-optimal performance can result in lower user comfort and potential control instability. In this paper, we provide a methodology for a WSAN/Control co-design that identifies design requirements that jointly optimize over the WSAN and control parameters, thereby leading to high user comfort in multi-zone building applications. The developed methodology has been illustrated through a distributed and a typical PI centralized lighting control developed using our hybrid/multi-agent platform.",
