Figure 9-1 Floor plan of the small shared-space office.<br />

The rest of this section describes the hardware setup <strong>and</strong> network design of this<br />

implementation. The hardware setup subsection depicts the construction of the lighting<br />

control system, including how the components developed in Chapter 7 fit into the<br />

system, how each component interact with one another, <strong>and</strong> how the office was<br />

retrofitted. The network design subsection specifies the wireless messages used <strong>for</strong><br />

configuring a communication network, managing actuation activities, <strong>and</strong> collecting<br />

sensor readings. For completeness, each of the topics will be discussed in detail.<br />

However, it is important to recognize that each hardware component <strong>and</strong> network<br />

message may potentially be realized in various ways, <strong>and</strong> it is the functionalities of the<br />

components <strong>and</strong> messages that matter in this research.<br />
