| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立交通大學 === 管理學院碩士在職專班科技管理組 === 97 === Automation technologies are changing our domestic environments that provide people more comfortable and more efficient daily life. Continuing some studies regarding future digital life, this research analyzes technology development trend of home automation, which is a major implementation platform of digital life.
This research studies factors that limit applications of home automation systems. Systematic analysis methods provided by TRIZ are used to formulate the key factors into generic TRIZ problems, and then some generic solutions are derived with the TRIZ process. With the generic solutions, analogy process is taken to map the generic solutions into real solutions that can show us trend of home automation technologies.
After study of the home automation issues, the research classifies the factors that limit use of home automation into three groups: “Efficiency of operational environments”, “Degree of ease of installation and maintenance”, and “Network security for privacy”. The “Efficiency of operational environments” is analyzed with the Su-field model, while “Degree of ease of installation and maintenance” and “Network security for privacy” are analyzed with the contradiction matrix. The patterns of the solutions derived from the TRIZ process conduct us to see the trend of home automation technologies as following.
Efficiency of operational environments: 1. use of portable remote controllers as human-machine interface, 2. miniaturization of remote controllers, 3. demand of more input media.
Degree of ease of installation and maintenance: 1. home networks compounding multiple sub-networks, 2. interconnection of sub-networks with repeaters or protocol converts, 3. demand of multiple wireless channel communication, 4. demand of professional technical services.
Network security for privacy: 1. lightweight security gateway between internal and external networks, 2. distributed network security system, 3. use of PKI and digital identifier for authentication, 4. self-learning defense systems.
