BOSS: Building Operating System Services
summary
BOSS provides a suite of operating-system–style services that map physical space to controls via a hardware abstraction layer, exposes ~30,000 data streams through ~30 drivers at ~500 readings/sec, and enforces actuations with a lease-backed transaction manager hardware component so apps are fault-tolerant and revert on failure. Deployments on a 140,000 ft² test building with ~6,000 points and partial installs elsewhere deliver portable declarative apps and report about 30% electricity/steam and ~60% lighting savings.
