The article presents an analysis of the effectiveness of the use in the construction of an automated building management system (ASUZ) as a technical basis for the implementation of the concept of a “smart”, “intelligent” building, and the prospects for using APSS to reduce the energy intensity of buildings are noted. Examples of the interaction of building engineering systems with urban facilities are considered. The authors noted the advantages of using and justified the relevance of the involvement of the automated system in the building management processes, identified reasons hindering the implementation of the Smart House technology in Russia.

This article raised the problem of the rapid pace of urban development and the conditions for comfortable living of the urban population. To solve these problems, the concept of “Smart City” was created. "Smart City" is a system that provides a high level of urban life, increasing the profitability of resource use by combining all the services and information systems of the city. The main elements of this concept and their role in the program are shown. There are ways to solve problems due to the implementation of the Smart City program. The question of the need for the growth of smart cities, and also shows the reasons for the long development of cities in this direction. The main ideas of the implementation of the "Smart City" program are described. The basic strategies for the development of "smart" cities in Russia are given.
