Abstract

Purpose Despite the growing attention on the relevance of improved building management systems with cognition in recent years in the architecture, engineering, construction and operation (AECO) community, no review has been conducted to understand the human-environment interaction features of cyber-physical systems (CPS) and digital twins (DTs) in developing the concept of a cognitive building (CB). Thus, this paper aims to review existing studies on CPS and DTs for CB to propose a comprehensive system architecture that considers human-environment interactions. Design/methodology/approach Scientometric analysis and content analysis were adopted for this study. Findings The scientometric analysis of 1,042 journal papers showed the major themes of CPS/DTs for CB, and these can be categorized into three key technologies to realize CB in the AECO community: CPS, DTs and cognitive computing (CC). Content analysis of 44 relevant publications in the built environment assisted in understanding and evidently confirming the claim of this study on the integration of CPS and DTs for CB in construction by also involving the CC. It is found and confirmed that CB can be realized with CPS and DTs along with the CC. A CB system architecture (CBSA) is proposed from the three key technologies considering the human-environment interactions in the loop. The study discovered the potential applications of the CBSA across the building lifecycle phases, including the design, construction and operations and maintenance, with the potential promise of endowing resilience, intelligence, greater efficiency and self-adaptiveness. Based on the findings of the review, four research directions are proposed: human-environment interactions, CB for sustainable building performance, CB concept for modular buildings and moving beyond CB. Originality/value This study stands out for comprehensively surveying the intellectual core and the landscape of the general body of knowledge on CPS/DTs for CB in the built environment. It makes a distinctive contribution to knowledge as it does not only propose CBSA by integrating CPS and DTs along with CC but also suggests some potential practical applications. These may require expert judgments and real case examples to enhance reproducibility and validation.

建筑业“认知建设”的网络物理系统和数字双胞胎
目的尽管近年来建筑、工程、施工和运营(AECO)界越来越关注改进的建筑管理系统与认知的相关性,目前还没有对网络物理系统(CPS)和数字双胞胎(DT)在开发认知建筑(CB)概念时的人-环境交互特征进行综述。因此,本文旨在回顾CB的CPS和DT的现有研究,以提出一个考虑人与环境交互的综合系统架构。设计/方法/方法本研究采用科学分析法和内容分析法。发现对1042篇期刊论文的科学计量分析显示了CB的CPS/DTs的主要主题,这些主题可分为AECO社区实现CB的三个关键技术:CPS、DTs和认知计算(CC)。通过对44篇相关出版物在建筑环境中的内容分析,有助于理解并明显证实本研究关于建筑施工中CB的CPS和DT集成的主张,同时也涉及CC。发现并证实了CB可以与CPS和DT一起实现。从三个关键技术出发,考虑到人与环境在循环中的相互作用,提出了CB系统体系结构(CBSA)。该研究发现了CBSA在建筑生命周期各阶段的潜在应用,包括设计、施工、运营和维护,并有望赋予其弹性、智能性、更高的效率和自适应性。基于综述的结果,提出了四个研究方向:人与环境的相互作用、可持续建筑性能的CB、模块化建筑的CB概念以及超越CB。独创性/价值本研究旨在全面调查建筑环境中CB的CPS/DT的知识核心和一般知识体系的景观。它对知识做出了独特的贡献,因为它不仅通过将CPS和DT与CC集成来提出CBSA,而且还提出了一些潜在的实际应用。这些可能需要专家判断和实际案例,以增强再现性和验证性。
