Building BIOS Architecture

The Building BIOS and Digital Twin shall maintain a controlled exchange of identity, configuration, state, geometry, and lifecycle information.

The BIOS shall remain authoritative for:

active Configuration Baseline;

registered identities;

permissions;

Interface connection state;

commissioned capabilities;

operating restrictions;

BIOS-managed events;

current authorization.

The Digital Twin may remain authoritative for:

detailed geometric representation;

simulation models;

visualization;

performance analysis;

predictive models;

historical analysis;

engineering scenarios.

The integration shall distinguish:

As-Designed;

As-Manufactured;

As-Installed;

As-Commissioned;

As-Operated;

As-Maintained;

As-Modified;

As-Decommissioned.

Data exchanged may include:

Component and Cartridge identities;

locations and coordinate transformations;

Interface relationships;

capabilities;

state and health;

faults;

maintenance history;

sensor data references;

configuration versions;

simulation results;

A discrepancy shall create a reconciliation record identifying:

BIOS value;

Digital Twin value;

source;

authority;

confidence;

required verification;

proposed resolution.

Physical change shall not be considered complete merely because a Digital Twin model was edited. Digital change shall not be considered physically implemented without BIOS-recognized verification.
