“...... I believe that with the development of computer technology and the development of computer-based, computer-to-computer, computer-to-sensor, and computer-to-sensor interconnection technology, the future of buildings will become more and more intelligent. ”

"Building intelligence?" Chen Geng's argument immediately aroused the great curiosity and interest of Professor Kevin Lynch and Professor Wu Liangyong, both of whom knew that Chen Geng seemed to have some unique insights in computer technology, and Professor Kevin Lynch immediately asked: "What do you say about the intelligence of buildings?"

Although no one has even mentioned this point of view, at the moment when Chen Geng proposed "building automation", Professor Kevin Lynch, who is more concerned about the development of science and technology, instantly had an almost intuitive feeling: yes, with the development of computer technology, the future building should be like this, it is no longer a cold building, it should be an intelligent building with its own wisdom...... Don't laugh, today's computer technology is not yet mature, and for many things that everyone has long been accustomed to more than 30 years later, it is still in the imagination stage.

Professor Kevin Lynch almost couldn't wait to ask Chen Geng: "Fernandez, what do you think the intelligence of the building should be?"

After speaking, before Chen Geng could answer, he himself couldn't wait to say: "Some time ago, I discussed this issue with my colleagues in the Department of Computer Science, and they also held this view, thinking that the future of architecture will definitely develop in the direction of intelligence and computerization, but what is this direction like, everyone is arguing very much now." ”

"Hmmm......"

Chen Geng thought about it and slowly replied: "The problem of intelligent buildings, or intelligent buildings, is actually an idea that I have just generated these days, and there must be a very immature and naïve place......

"Fernandez, we are all the same," Professor Kevin Lynch smiled and prepared Chen Geng's words: "As an architectural designer, limited to the current level of development of technology, we are all groping, and I even think that your views on building intelligence are much more advanced than those of MIT, because you are the first person to officially put forward the concept of 'building intelligence', although you are not a ...... of architecture-related majors."

This is the most regrettable party of Professor Kevin Lynch, the first person to put forward the concept of "building intelligence" is not a senior practitioner in the construction industry, which makes Professor Kevin Lynch a little embarrassed!

After a while, Professor Kevin Lynch said: "So, we are all talking about the cutting-edge technology of the future, and naivety and immaturity are inevitable. ”

Professor Wu Liangyong kept nodding his head, and his heart was shocked: when China was still studying how to build the building as high as possible, the Americans had already studied the intelligence of the building, and the gap was really too big.

For Chen Geng's next content, he is also looking forward to it more and more.

"That'...... I'll just talk about it casually, if there is something wrong, please don't laugh at it," Chen Geng seemed to be a little embarrassed, as if he was sorting out his thoughts, and only after a brief pause did he speak: "When it comes to building intelligence, the first point is what advantages should intelligent buildings have compared with traditional buildings...... It doesn't make any sense if it doesn't have more benefits and advantages than a traditional building, but smart for the sake of being smart. ”

"Can't be smart for the sake of being smart?" Professor Kevin Lynch's eyes brightened and kept nodding, "You're right, go on!"

"The first is to have a very strong information and communication ability, and I am talking about this communication ability is not just telephone and fax, you work at MIT, you should know that MIT has cooperated with the Department of Defense on a project called the 'ARPA' network......"

"Yes, I know. Professor Kevin Lynch nodded, and at the same time looked at Chen Geng in surprise: "You also know about this project?"

Chen Geng smiled proudly: "Don't forget, what do I do." ”

Professor Kevin Lynch suddenly!

Only then did he remember that Fernandez was not engaged in the production of any computer hardware and software...... In fact, Professor Kevin Lynch was wrong, Fernandez's first "Windows" shell software has entered the final testing stage and will be officially launched in the near future...... Now he is considered to be a leading figure in the computer industry in the United States, has good cooperative relations with many bigwigs and large enterprises in the computer industry, and has a deep understanding of the computer industry in the United States, and it is not surprising that he knows the "ARPA" project of MIT and the Department of Defense.

Professor Kevin Lynch nodded and motioned for Chen Geng to continue.

"The purpose of the 'ARPA' network is to allow files and data to be transferred between different computers through a mechanism and protocol, and the transmission between such data relies on network technology," said Chen Geng, who said that the ARPANET is the world's first operating packet switching network developed by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency, which is also the ancestor of the global Internet, and the e-mail technology is generated on the ARPANET technology. I believe that this kind of technology should not only be used by the military, but should be used in all areas related to the national economy and people's livelihood.

In the same way, I believe that the core and backbone of the smart edifice of the future is this integrated data exchange network similar to the ARPA network, but with a larger bandwidth, with advanced means of internal and external information exchange.

At the same time, this network is also the basis for automatic air conditioning systems, automatic lighting systems, building office automation systems, automatic security systems, unattended automated parking management systems, automatic fire alarm systems and automatic fire extinguishing systems......"

"Mr. Fernández, please wait a minute. ”

Professor Kevin Lynch originally simply wanted to listen to Chen Geng's idea of the unformed intelligent edifice in his heart, but in fact, in his heart, the so-called smart edifice proposed by Chen Geng was more of a reverie for the future in his heart, and even an imaginary, but now it seems that he has far underestimated Fernandez Chen's collection of this collection.

Without a long-term, in-depth understanding of the relevant technology, he would not have been able to grasp these concepts easily.

It's a big profit!

Professor Kevin Lynch, who originally had the idea of guiding younger generations, no longer dared to underestimate Chen Geng: he may be a complete layman in the field of architectural design, but the strategic vision and depth of this field are much more far-reaching than himself!
