Abstract: A model analyzer may receive a representative data set as input and select one of a plurality of analytic models to perform the analysis. Before deciding which model to use the model may be trained, and the trained model evaluated for accuracy. However, some models are known to behave poorly when the training data is distributed in a particular way. Thus, the cost of training a model and evaluating the trained model can be avoided by first analyzing the distribution of the representative data. Identifying the representative data distribution allows ruling out use of models for which the distribution of the representative data is unsuitable. Only models that may be compatible with the distribution of the representative data may be trained and evaluated for accuracy. The most accurate trained model whose accuracy meets an accuracy threshold may be selected to analyze subsequently received data related to the representative data.

At least one of the system controller and one or more controllers of the plurality of building sensor fixtures is operative to determine a plurality of selected groups of the plurality of building sensor fixtures, compare a first characteristic between the plurality of the selected groups, and identify deviations of the compared first characteristic between the plurality of the selected groups.

Abstract: Apparatuses, methods and systems for predicting a future state of a built environment with a sensor network are disclosed. One sensor network includes a plurality of sensors of a built environment and a controller. Each sensor is operative to generate a sense signal. The controller is operative to collect sense values that represent sense signals of the plurality of sensors, wherein the sense values are collected over time, classify each of the collected sense values based on a type of space of the built environment associated with a corresponding one of the plurality of sensors that generated the sense value, based on a timing of the sense value, and based on other available information of the built environment, predict a future state of each of the plurality of sensors based at least in part on the classifications of each of the sense values, and communicate the future state.

Abstract: An apparatuses, methods, and systems for a distributed network of a structure that provides location-based human interaction and intelligent use of the structure are disclosed. The distributed network includes wireless transceivers, sensors, asset tags, and a controller electronically connected to the wireless transceivers, the sensors and the asset tags. At least one wireless transceiver is operative to transmit time-based tokens through a low-power first network, wherein the low-power first network includes the plurality of wireless transceivers. The controller is operative to receive modified time-based tokens from a mobile device or at least one of the plurality of asset tags through a second network, wherein the modified time-based tokens include identification information of the mobile device or the at least one asset tag that has been appended to the time-base tokens, and perform location-based intelligence based on the identification information and the time-based tokens.

Abstract: A method, system, and program product for creating network isolation between virtual machines is provided, including receiving, by a security virtual machine (SVM), an outgoing network packet from a virtual machine (VM). The source internet protocol (IP) address and a source media access control (MAC) address is extracted from the outgoing network packet. A zone identifier table is searched for a zone id, whereby the zone identifier table includes the source IP address and the source MAC address. The outgoing network packet is sent to a physical Ethernet adapter connected to an external network switch whereby the external network switch is connected to an external network, based on the zone id not being found in the zone identifier table. The outgoing network packet is sent to a physical Ethernet adapter that is connected to an internal switch, based on the zone id being found in the zone identifier table.
