Building BIOS Architecture

AI systems may use BIOS data to support engineering analysis, operation, diagnosis, optimization, maintenance, occupant assistance, and emergency decision support.

The BIOS shall provide AI systems only with authorized, structured, provenance-preserving data.

AI inputs may include:

verified building configuration;

topology and dependencies;

Component and Cartridge capabilities;

Interface states;

event history;

health data;

sensor data;

maintenance records;

operating mode;

active restrictions;

applicable Engineering Profiles.

AI outputs may include:

recommendations;

anomaly detections;

predicted faults;

optimization proposals;

maintenance priorities;

configuration alternatives;

diagnostic hypotheses;

natural-language explanations;

proposed commands.

The BIOS shall classify AI outputs as inferred or recommended information unless they have been independently verified and formally accepted.

AI shall not directly modify:

Configuration Baseline;

Engineering Profiles;

safety logic;

control-authority assignments;

certification data;

structural capacity;

emergency rules.

Any AI-proposed change shall pass through normal authorization, validation, and Configuration Change Management.

AI systems shall declare:

model identity and version;

provider;

intended function;

required inputs;

output type;

confidence or uncertainty;

known limitations;

permitted authority;
