Abstract
A controller for a plurality of interconnected devices in a system is shown. The controller includes a processing circuit configured to detect that a first device of the plurality of interconnected devices is unavailable and identify a second device of the plurality of interconnected devices schematically dependent upon the first device by conducting a graph theory analysis on schematic relationships indicating connections among the plurality of interconnected devices. The processing circuit is further configured to, in response to identifying the second device schematically dependent upon the first device, generate a reduced subset of the plurality of interconnected devices that excludes the second device. The processing circuit is further configured to operate the reduced subset to transfer one or more resources among the reduced subset via the connections.
