Smart House as An Input to the Application of Technological Development and Rationalization of Energy Consumption in Buildings and Achieve Sustainability. (Dept. Architecture)

Abstract

Architecture has been and remains the mirror that reflects the civilization of peoples throughout the ages, which is happening now in the field of global architecture is a shift in the general thought as a whole, as the modern era in which we live now is undoubtedly the era of technology and information revolution has reflected this image on buildings And imposed itself and the idea of smart systems and intelligent buildings emerged as an automatic response to architecture on the scientific and technological development. There is a major problem is through two aspects: The first aspect is to limit the concept of smart house to the majority of individuals to provide and facilitate techniques to achieve security and prosperity in the home, and increase the others in the provision of energy, The second aspect is the lack of consideration of the role that mating can play between the concepts related to these two directions (computer technology and energy reduction) in developing the concept of smart house and its role in the field of energy conservation and improving its thermal performance and thus increasing its total value. Therefore, the importance of studying the smart house is that the development of this trend in the hoped-for way serves the same inhabitant by providing the appropriate lifestyle and the economy in the cost of its operation, which is reflected positively on the development of society, and serves the environment in which these houses are characterized by their characteristics of sustainability, On the third hand, its impact on the state has a positive effect on reducing the depletion of the general energy resources in the country and the possibility of directing the resulting savings in other development hubs. A framework for research has been identified from three axes. The first is a study of the concept group related to architecture, smart house and sustainability, The second axis: study the role of smart house in the reduce of energy consumption and achieve sustainability and appropriateness and reflection on the development of society, the third axis: An analysis of a variety of different models of houses with general intelligence in the building, measurement of the smart aspects and the extent of their reflection on the characteristics of the house In order to arrive at specific results that can be evaluated and used in developing a set of criteria to assess the level of housing intelligence.
