چکیده

Ambient intelligence (AmI) is a multidisciplinary paradigm based on the Invisible Computer and Ubiquitous Computing. In AmI, technologies are deployed to make computers disappear in the background, while the human user moves into the foreground in complete control of the augmented environment. AmI is a user-centric paradigm, it supports a variety of artificial intelligence methods and works pervasively, no intrusively, and transparently to aid the user. AmI supports and promotes interdisciplinary research encompassing the technological, scientific and artistic fields creating a virtual support for embedded and distributed intelligence. In this paper authors are looking for possibilities to implement AmI as a way for saving energy in the construction industry, especially in buildings. AmI combines ICT and sensor technologies and enables monitoring, controlling and management of using energy in buildings and becomes key factor of energy efficiency in the construction industry.
