Workflow Description

1. Monitor Environment

The system continuously monitors temperature and humidity levels in the home.

2. Detect Trigger Event

When a significant temperature change occurs or a scheduled time is reached, the system identifies the need for adjustment.

3. Evaluate Climate Needs

The system checks if current conditions require action based on user-defined preferences.

4. Execute Adjustments

If adjustments are needed, the system automatically modifies the climate settings or activates valves.

5. Feedback Loop

The system provides feedback to the user about the adjustments made and current settings.

Postconditions

The climate settings are adjusted according to the preferences, and valves are operated as needed, resulting in an optimized home environment.

Optional Enhancements

• Integrate AI to predict climate needs based on historical data.
• Add voice control capabilities through smart assistants.
• Enable remote access via mobile app for real-time monitoring.
