Intelligent Lighting System Platform Architecture and Linear Process Models

Lighting process generally takes between 25%-40% of total electricity consumption in a building. In the last years the lighting systems evolved to reduce the power consumption of a building reducing this way the costs and environmental pollution. Nowadays smart home automation systems were developed to reduce the power consumption and improve the comfort. This paper presents and describes the lighting process of a room, and suggests the architecture of an intelligent platform. The platform is capable to maintain the light intensity in a room to a desired level using natural daylight to illuminate a room in order to reduce the power consumption.
