  • Patent number: 7885961
    Abstract: A method comprises grouping a plurality of building system controllers into at least one control system group, the at least one control system group corresponding to at least one connected group of building system controllers. The method also comprises grouping the at least one control system group into at least one site group, the at least one site group corresponding to a physical location of the at least one control system group. The method also comprises selecting a group from the at least one site group and the at least one control system group, and performing an activity on each controller within the selected group.

  • Publication number: 20060271623
    Abstract: A building system control and monitoring system comprises a building system controller having a network connection and a server communicatively connected to the network connection. A plurality of clients are communicatively connected to the server, which provides data associated with the building system controller to each of the plurality of clients by sharing the network connection across the plurality of clients.

  • Publication number: 20060137467
    Abstract: A Moiré interferometric-based shear-stress sensor includes a substrate support. The substrate includes a first optical grating disposed in or on the substrate, the first grating having a plurality of features defining a first spatial period. A floating element having a second optical grating is disposed in or on the floating element. The second grating has a plurality of features defining a second spatial period. The floating element is suspended over the first grating and flexibly connected to the substrate with compliant springs, wherein the respective gratings are in an optical path with one another. Upon irradiation, the sensor forms a Moiré fringe pattern which relates to a shear-stress induced translation of the floating element.

  • Publication number: 20050013457
    Abstract: A multi-resonator-based system responsive to acoustic waves includes at least two resonators, each including a bottom plate, side walls secured to the bottom plate, and a top plate disposed on top of the side walls. The top plate includes an orifice so that a portion of an incident acoustical wave compresses gas in the resonators. The bottom plate or the side walls include at least one compliant portion. A reciprocal electromechanical transducer coupled to the compliant portion of each of the resonators forms a first and second transducer/compliant composite. An electrical network is disposed between the reciprocal electromechanical transducer of the first and second resonator.
