Access control system for residential buildings using hybrid cloud computing

Summary

Taking advantage of development in Cloud Computing technologies we developed IAM (Intelligent Access Management), an application for monitoring traffic and use of facilities in large residential infrastructures. IAM offers a variety of services informing the residential infrastructure manager of possible increase in activity and usage of the available facilities. Access privilege to facilities is granted to the users via limited time subscriptions. The services are provided as a Web application that runs on a smart device (e.g., mobile phone), which connects to sensors associated with specific areas of an infrastructure (e.g., residential building). IAM access and monitoring services are implemented to the cloud that can be a private cloud per infrastructure. IAM not only enables user monitoring and use of certain facilities of a building but also, allows users to interact with the management personnel in cases of emergency or when they need assistance. Anonymous use (log) data from separate private clouds are collected and transmitted to a public cloud for further analysis (e.g., big data analysis). This analysis can provide useful statistics about user preferences or uncover unknown data correlations that can be used to improve business operations and the quality of services (e.g. users’ data may provide feedback for enhancing system functionality and users’ acceptance).
