Smart meter open data is becoming widely available due to the mass installation of smart meters. Consumer data analytic methods are available in literature since several years ago, but they seldom specify the steps taken in data treatment, nor do they highlight the particularities that can arise...

NO2 is one of the main components in haze, and its real-time monitoring is the basis for solving environmental problems. The application of metal oxide gas sensors is limited in daily life which works at high temperature, while metal sulfide sensors can work at room temperature to solve this...

The development of highly efficient and stable electrocatalysts for their application in electrochemical detection is desirable. Herein, a new copper nanowires (CuNWs) modified electrode was fabricated by coating poly(dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA) stabilized CuNWs composite onto the...

The expansion of smart metering technology worldwide has represented a change in the energy sector, as it incorporates new technologies for energy consumption. In Brazil, this topic has been contributing to the formation of a regulatory framework regarding new technologies and to the...

As one of the most commonly meat products, the quality of pork is directly related to people's health. Pig transportation is the key link between breeding farms and slaughterhouses. However, starvation and plague often occur in reality, which not only brings economic losses to farms and...

With the progress in intelligent transportation systems, a great interest has been directed towards traffic sensors information for flow estimation problems. Nevertheless, there is a great challenge to locate such traffic sensors on a network to attain the maximum benefits from them. Considering...

Sensors are commonly employed to monitor products during their life cycles and to remotely and continuously track their usage patterns. Installing sensors into products can help generate useful data related to the conditions of products and their components, and this information can subsequently...

"This book focuses on the economics of smart meters and is one of the first to present comprehensive evidence on the impacts, cost-benefits and risks associated with smart metering. Throughout this volume, Jacopo Torriti integrates his findings from institutional cost-benefit analyses and smart...

This paper develops an energy management system with integration of smart meters for electricity consumers in a smart grid context. The integration of two types of smart meters (SM) are developed: (i) consumer owned SM and (ii) distributor owned SM. The consumer owned SM runs over a wireless...

Es werden LabVIEW-Simulationsprogramme für das regelungstechnische Praktikum beschrieben, die intensiven Gebrauch von MATLAB-Skript-Nodes machen. Ein verfahrenstechnischer Prozess und ein Antriebssystem werden modellprädiktiv geregelt. Die Auswirkungen von Begrenzungen, die Teil der...

Requirements for embedded systems are mainly documented using natural language. This is due to the fact that natural language does not require special nomenclature knowledge and is accepted as the basis for contractual agreements. However, purely natural-language-based requirements engineering...

"This book is a pivotal reference source for the latest research on recent innovations and developments in the field of wireless sensors, examining the advantages and challenges presented by the application of these networks in various areas"--Provided by publisher.

"Brown & Sharpe employees produced and marketed measuring devices, machine tools and precision machinery, and helped shape Rhode Island, the nation and the modern world. The history of Brown & Sharpe contains the story of the Industrial Revolution in America, covering more than 150 years of...

This paper analyzes the effects of providing feedback on electricity consumption in a field trial involving more than 1,500 households in Linz, Austria. About half of these households received feedback together with information about electricity-saving measures (pilot group), while the remaining...

We examine welfare effects of real-time pricing in electricity markets. Before stochastic energy demand is known, competitive retailers contract with final consumers who exogenously do not have real-time meters. After demand is realized, two electricity generators compete in a uniform price...
