Abstract
This article proposes the integration of IoT sensor and communication paradigms with business process management software systems, intending to develop a service model aimed at the environmental comfort of users in shared spaces. The model involves users in the input of data to the system, developing services that are adapted to their needs. To deploy the necessary infrastructure, a hardware device has been designed and developed that measures the environmental parameters (\(CO_2\), temperature, humidity, particles, etc.) of the classrooms and automatically controls the actuators (ventilation, lighting, air conditioning, etc.) of interest. Together with this device, the management software has been designed, which will be deployed through a platform of digital services (monitoring dashboard, process algorithms, etc.) that allow maintenance staff to keep track, act when appropriate and/or design preventive and predictive actions. In addition, this platform integrates users into the system, allowing them to consult information and interact to improve their perception of the comfort and environmental quality of the classroom around them.
