Buildings with brains
Digital transformation is now having clear impact in the real world, including the buildings that serve as workplaces, living spaces, and areas of commerce.

They consume an estimated 42% of electricity worldwide, and total operating expenses are greater than 70% of the total costs of ownership. The advent of internet of things and IBM Watson, is changing the way the buildings are. The large number of sensors put in, along with cameras and other devices, provide a deluge of data, which IBM Watson can learn from and then progressively used to solve issues and arrive at intelligent decisions.
