DEHEMS Sensor Simulation System - Details Released

In the research and development stages of the Digital Environmental Home Energy Management System (DEHEMS) our partners at the Research Institute e-Austria Timisoara have created a sensor simulation system, details of which can now be found on our website.

In brief, the DEHEMS Sensor System (DS3) includes:

• the need to generate very accurate sensor data for the data-analysis engine and pattern matching algorithms, preferably based on previously defined energy consumption patterns
• the need to rapidly generate and flood the storage engine with large amounts of real time sensor data in order to simulate the data output of the real-life monitoring system
• the ability to wrap the simulated data in XML, JSON and other custom formats and rapidly switch between these formats
• hardware constraints: the system had to be scalable in order to take maximum advantage of the underlying hardware architecture and was required to perform well on standard PCs (i.e. simulate more than 30.000 households).

DEHEMS set to host event as part of Intellect’s High Tech : Low Carbon Week

DEHEMS, in partnership with Intellect, the IT Trade Body, are delighted to be hosting a special event during Intellect’s High Tech : Low Carbon Week.

Date: Tuesday 10 February 2009
Time: Registration 13:30, Meeting 14:00-16:00
Location: Russell Square House, 10-12 Russell Square, London WC1B 5EE

This meeting will explore the role of home energy management in tackling climate change and how this leading EU R&D project is developing state of the art metering technology.

Speakers include Josh Cooper, CEO of Hildebrand Ltd and Atul Hatwal, Director of Fifth Column. Both are Policy Advisors to DEHEMS.

Why attend?

- Hear in detail about the DEHEMS project and how it is developing state-of-the-art metering systems for the domestic market.
- Learn about the importance of Home Energy Management in tackling climate change.
- Find out more about DEHEMS Implementations in Manchester, Birmingham and Bristol and how DEHEMS will positively affect household behaviour.

Expect an exciting and informative afternoon, a real passionate event from leading experts in the Green ICT field.
