Across the globe, the automation and controls industry is transitioning
from proprietary architectures to more flexible open systems that are
revolutionizing the way devices run buildings, factories, homes and transport.
Today, LonMarkВ® open systems have emerged as the leading global, cross-platform
solution for networking everyday devices.
Capitalizing on the success of the 2005 tour (Building Open Systems 2005)
which had over 4,000 registrants, the LonMark Sessions 2007/2008 will visit 57 cities
in the Americas, Europe, the Middle East and Asia. The Tour is part of the
LonMark Connection Initiative, a global educational program that aims to help
the controls and automation industries continue the transition from proprietary
to open, integrated systems. The tour will focus on:
Energy savings
Improving efficiencies through system integration
Maintenance, operating, and training cost reductions
