AI in Building Operations Faces Unique Software Engineering Hurdles

Deploying AI for building operations presents unique software engineering challenges due to the irreversible nature of control failures. Unlike typical digital environments, suboptimal building control can lead to wasted energy, decreased occupant comfort, and accelerated equipment wear. Two interdisciplinary research projects in civil engineering and computer science have identified critical gaps in current SE4AI practices for systems where failures have physical consequences, proposing a foundation for future validation. AI

IMPACT Highlights the need for specialized software engineering practices for AI systems controlling physical infrastructure, impacting deployment strategies.

    Software Engineering for AI-driven Building Operation

    Building operations are energy-inefficient. Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven control systems promise benefits through optimization and predictive control, but deploying them in real buildings reveals a significant software engineering (SE) challenge. SE for AI practices assume…
