Abstract

Smart systems represent through their environmental, social, and economic potential input to root sustainability. The Research deals with Smart systems taking Egypt as a research area scope where it noticed that attributes and features of Smart buildings (Smart systems perspective) are in weakness and severe decay in the construction system in general. However, many potentials opportunities could boost the construction system to start coping with the development and make smart systems for buildings in Egypt an entry point for smart buildings and sustainability. Then, systematically dealing with this current situation can give an approach to the required improvement through: (a) Formulating the concept of smart buildings (smart systems as input, (b) Developing a methodology to demarcate the attributes and features of smart buildings from the perspective of smart systems, (c) Criticism of smart architecture in local Egyptian reality to realize the current situation, (d) Listing some current challenges and opportunities to support the smart building system in the Egyptian context.
