针对建筑物和住宅提出了数字控制系统，该系统可以管理被动太阳能增益、自然通风、供暖和照明，从而将能耗降至最低，并全年提供良好的热和采光条件。这将通过一个集成控制系统来实现，该系统用于窗户挡板（百叶窗、通风窗等）和传统的照明和供暖系统。描述了用于设计的概念和技术，例如从建筑构件和天气的自适应模型中导出的最优控制策略。 指出了与“智能建筑”或“智能住宅”概念的相似之处。单位:SICitation:Symposium，ASHRAE交易，1988年，第94卷，pt。德克萨斯州达拉斯1号

Digital control systems are proposed for buildings and dwellings, which can manage the passive solar gains, natural ventilation, heating, and lighting in such a way that they minimize energy consumption and provide good thermal and daylighting conditions year-round. This will be carried out by an integrated control system for window decives (blinds, vent windows, etc.) and the traditional lighting and heating system. Concepts and techniques to be used for the design are described, such as optimal control strategies derived from adaptive models of the building components and the weather. The similarity to the "intelligent building" or "smart house" concept is pointed out.Units: SI
