BOSS: Building Operating System Services
A key challenge is enabling software which can run across many buildings with minimal modification. Many of the projects within SDB concern developing the services available to these applications to implement their logic; the BOSS project seeks to provide the underling runtime within these applications run. This consists of defining core sets of interfaces applications use to communicate with the building and each other while providing for the security and reliability of the overall system.
