(Main)SmartHouse Code of Practice
SmartHouse Code of Practice
1.1 The SmartHouse and its components The SmartHouse consists of a large and wide ranging set of many Services, Applications, Equipment, Networks and Systems that act together in delivering the “intelligent” or “connected” home in order to address security and control, communications, leisure and comfort, environmental integration and accessibility. These components are represented by many actors that interact and work together to provide interoperable systems that benefit the home based user in the SmartHouse. Because of this wide ranging variability of the entities in the SmartHouse, there is a very high level of potential complexity in finding the optimal solution for any particular SmartHouse. The main actors that influence the SmartHouse are the consumers (customers, subscribers, individuals) that live in and utilise the Services, Applications and Products that are designed for the SmartHouse. It is therefore appropriate that the other main set of actors are the service and application providers that deliver the services that the consumers need and require, including those responsible for installing systems in the SmartHouse and for maintaining them. These consumers have needs and requirements in many areas and these are described in the Section on Consumers. Likewise the aims and objectives of the Service Providers in fulfilling consumer needs are described in the section on Service Providers. The installer also has to fulfil consumer needs and the Installation Process is described in the section on Installation.

Preface
This Code of Practice is intended to provide a valuable reference for anyone involved in creating a
SmartHouse, a house that has intelligent systems, intelligent equipment and networks and has
services and applications that use the SmartHouse intelligence.
It has been put together from the efforts of a large number of industry experts. In order to cope with
the very broad scope of the Code of Practice and the many stakeholders that were involved, it was
seen as desirable that the document should be subdivided into Sections each of which covers a
particular market segment in the service supply chain of services and applications to and within the
SmartHouse.
Each Section has been constructed by a Section Editor who is an expert in the area of the section and
overall editing and management of the project has been the task of an overall Managing Editor. Each
Section Editor has had the assistance of a dedicated group of experts and around 160 experts have
been involved in these working groups. Overall, there have been 4 Open Forums/Workshops attended
by an average of 65 Experts for the first 3. Some 325 experts have been involved in the review
process. The 10 section editors have worked incredibly hard with their experts to deliver the current
text. The time recorded by the experts now adds up to more than 600 man days.
There have been numerous disagreements as to what should be in the text and what left out. These
have been resolved although some hard decisions have had to be made. There is now agreement on
the text and all the comments received have been resolved and put into the document
Because there is significant variability in the scope of the sections, some sections deal with hard
physical facts whereas some deal with the objectives and needs of stakeholders such as the
consumer and the service provider. Other sections deal with entities where the market is still evolving
and therefore the hard physical facts are not readily available. Therefore, while there has been
considerable attention to ensuring consistency, there are areas where there is overlap, because the
sections lie side by side on the service supply chain, and some sections look at similar issues from
different perspectives.
An example of this is the way in which we have used the term “cluster”. In each section where it is
used it describes a broadly market segment grouping but is used in a slightly different way and
although the market segments are broadly similar, in some sections the market segments are sliced
more thinly.
Overall, it
