Applicable platform and database for software and information interoperability

Applicable platform and database for software and information interoperability Practical goals: Enhanced IT solutions —comprising a platform, a database, and the necessary interfaces— to facilitate the integration and interoperability between different types of software tools and mobile apps for measurement, assessment, monitoring and simulation of building condition, energy performance and user behaviours. Expected results: An integration and interoperability platform as an exploitable result from the project; a user-interface to allow building occupants, facility managers and other stakeholders to operate the software tools through their mobile devices; flexible interfaces with databases, Building Information Model (BIM), and Enterprise Resource Planning software systems, and cloud/server components; and automated software testing protocols and tool. Success criteria: Interfaces iteratively designed by involving users in a participatory design process at all stages and will be assessed for usability and user experience; validated specification and design; successful technical and user testing; and accessible documentation comprising: system integration test, user documentation (User Guide), installation instructions, and acceptation test followed by software commissioning. Targeted TRL: Utilized s-o-t-a technologies at TRL 7; further development and testing at TRL 8; operable results at TRL 8+. The basic platform will be operational from month 12 (D4.2) the final platform will be delivered in month 42
