Abstract
Building process control without including the occupant behaviour is a sub optimal solution. New developments are ongoing to develop energy efficient control strategies to include human behavior and especially occupancy in the process control of buildings. This paper presents a short overview of available technologies for integrating occupancy in building operations. Initial results from the implementation of one of these technologies in an office building are presented as well as the framework for the use of a more intelligent multi-agent based building energy and comfort management system to achieve worthwhile energy reduction.
