I have been involved in buildings and building systems for over 20 years and was pleasantly surprised to see how much information was thoughtfully covered in this book. With just the right amount technical overview, readers will find it comprehensive, yet easy to read and understand. Numerous smart building projects are discussed along with examples, and some use cases that explain how each smart building project helps to increase revenues, cut cost, and make the people in the building happier. This book will help me to demonstrate to my customers the potential return on their smart building projects and I recommend it to anyone thinking about implementing smart building projects.Journey Williams

This book is an awesome resource. If you are serious about learning what is a smart building and what it takes to create smart buildings, you cannot find a better resource. Harry clearly understands and identifies the many issues facing traditional buildings. He then goes on to explain the numerous technologies that make up the Internet of Things (IoT) and how they can be applied to solve these sometimes complex and challenging issues when trying to build and operate a smart building. Conceiving, designing, constructing and managing a smart building just became a lot simpler… or at least a lot more practical. This is a comprehensive guide, and the examples, explanations and recommendations are invaluable.I highly recommend this book not only for understanding IoT and how it works but also how it can be applied to solve problems that were unsolvable in the past. Hope you enjoy the book as much as I did. You will learn a lot.

The book is a very thorough look at the technology advancements including IoT and AI that delivered the foundations for Smart Buildings. I enjoyed the vibrant detail of a Day-in-the-Life possibilities with efficient building management systems, and amenities targeting the building tenants and occupants. Having toured the Sinclair Hotel in 2019 during smart renovations and conversion to Power over Ethernet (PoE), I am anxious to now see the finished, open hotel.I also believe the premise that Smart Buildings are the foundation blocks to connecting buildings to form a Smart Campus, then later to Communities, and finally ultimately a Smart City with interconnected systems.The book also highlights significant obstacles to Smart Buildings: the lack of a common architecture; the lack of standards; IT and OT systems being separated and the lack of a top down approach.
