Control Hub Rule Layering for Real-Time Interfering Events

The patent divides the automation rules into multiple hierarchical layers: base routine rule layer (from historical data), additional routine rule layer (for interfering events), and temporary rule layer (for immediate responses). This segmentation allows the system to handle different types of scenarios separately, enabling real-time adaptation without overwhelming complexity in a single rule structure.

The system dynamically generates and manages multiple rule layers based on real-time sensor data and device data. When an interfering event is detected, the system creates additional routine rule layers or temporary rule layers on-the-fly, allowing the automation system to adapt its behavior dynamically rather than relying on static pre-programmed rules.

The patent implements local quality by creating rule layers specifically targeted at particular interfering events rather than generating comprehensive rules for all possible scenarios. Each additional routine rule layer or temporary rule layer is locally optimized for its specific interfering event, reducing overall computational and storage requirements while maintaining real-time adaptation capability.

The system discards temporary rule layers after they have served their purpose following an interfering event, and recovers computational and storage resources. This allows the system to maintain real-time adaptation capability without permanently consuming resources for every possible scenario, as rules are created only when needed and discarded when no longer required.
