Abstract:
A method for managing an environment, said method comprising the steps of:converting a plurality of environmental indicators computed for a particular environment from among a plurality of environments into a transmittable data format, wherein each of said plurality of environmental indicators is computed by an electronic environmental measurement device from among a plurality of diverse electronic environmental measurement devices; transmitting said plurality of environmental indicators in said transmittable data format to a portable data processing system associated with a particular user; analyzing said plurality of environmental indicators received at said data processing system according to an environment sensitivity profile of said particular user's sensitivities to environment as indicated by said environmental indicators stored within said data processing system for said particular user, wherein said data processing system associated with said particular user is located within said particular environment; determining a plurality of control signals at said data processing system for adjusting a plurality of environmental control systems that control said particular environment, in response to said analyzing of said plurality of environmental indicators according to an environment sensitivity profile; and adjusting particular parameters of said particular environment as controlled by said plurality of environmental control systems according to said plurality of control signals, such that said particular environment is temporarily managed by said data processing system according to said environment sensitivity profile for said particular user located within said particular environment.
