Abstract
A distributed event engine for controlling distributed devices of a building management system executes as discrete event processes on distributed devices with sufficient computing power and availability. The distributed devices communicate via a peer-to-peer network and a distributed ledger (e.g. blockchain). An event engine configuration module assigns the event processes to the distributed devices based on device and capability information published to the distributed ledger. An edge device scoring process executing on the distributed devices executing the event processes determines which other distributed devices to control based on which devices are compatible with local event processes and/or electrically and geographically close, resulting in decreased latency, vulnerability to hacking and corruption of data.
