This project is part of the Innovation in Design, Construction and Operation of Building for People (IDCOP) programme, collaborating with Greenwich University, Southampton University and various companies and associations including Arup Group Ltd. The phrase 'intelligent building' refers to a building that continuously responds and adapts to changing conditions, allowing more efficient use of resources and increasing the comfort and security of its occupants. This work takes an agent-based approach to giving the users of the building direct representation in the intelligent operation of the building. The system aims to resolve conflict between the goals of the people (in optimizing their work and living conditions) and the building (in reducing energy consumption), and between goals of individuals in a group of people in the same location.
