April 2, 2013: Webinars to Discuss Trends, Challenges for Controls Interoperability, Integration
SAN JOSE, Calif. — LonMark International has announced two new educational webinars that will discuss the key trends and the challenges relating to control system interoperability, integration, and enterprise access facing the commercial building market.
“EASI Platform,” scheduled for April 9, 2013 at 8 a.m. PDT, will present several basic integration concepts and a new model referred to as the enterprise application standard interface (EASI) platform, where applications are able to utilize data from a variety of sub-systems and sub-protocols, in a more interoperable way, without the need for knowing or caring about the data transport origin. This model is bringing together large end users, industry protocol standards development associations, and vendors that are facing similar integration challenges. LonMark said this collaborative effort is working to solve one of the last fundamental interoperability issues left in smart buildings.
