Abstract
Consider a traditional building. Yet in it: You provide security locks to the building entrance as filters to pass certain humans and not others. You provide water filters to avoid microorganisms and bacteria in drinking water. You provide electrical filters as barriers to unwanted frequency and power distortion. You provide air filters, thus supplying air is dirt filtered, heated, or cooled. You provide vapor filters against leakage moisture transmission. All these basic filters basically provide clean air, power, and water to building habitats. In a high tech building this requirement is expanded to microlevels and expectation of building systems are at that level.
