Abstract
Existing building automation solutions suffer from the drawback of causing high engineering, commissioning, and installation efforts. Furthermore, the existing approaches are error-prone and require a lot of manual interaction between the involved parties. This article presents the results of an analysis for moving towards autonomous plug&use functionality by exploiting external data sources merged and maintained in a central information model, e.g., device information obtained via the scanning of NFC or QR tags, functional planning information, network topology information, wiring plan information, etc. In this context, the autonomous plug&use functionality aims at fully automating the commissioning process of devices of a building automation system by deriving input parameters from external data sources thereby minimizing manual user efforts.
