The document discusses the importance of IT-enabled smart energy and the challenges and opportunities it presents. Key points include:
- IT is crucial for the energy sector now and in the future to help meet efficiency goals like reducing consumption and increasing renewable energy use.
- Smart metering, big data analytics, gamification and social media can help consumers reduce energy use but challenges include data standards, security and a lack of skilled professionals.
- Education programs should focus on hands-on learning like building smart home systems to help train the workforce needed to develop smart energy solutions and bridge the gap between IT and energy.Designing Smart Energy
The Designing Smart Energy project (DESME) was a major, innovative research project conducted in 2007-2008. The challenging central task in this project was to figure out how to make households use less energy. The aim was to search for new solutions to help households save energy in easy, effortless, and even fun, ways through combined marketing and design expertise.
The role of behaviour in the transition to more energy efficient use at home ...
This study investigated domestic energy use behaviours in Portugal and ways of reducing energy use. This is important because current energy use in the developed world is considered to be unsustainable. Intervention strategies could play an important role to reduce energy use. While some previous research has demonstrated that certain intervention strategies did, or did not, produce changes in behaviour, they mostly could not sufficiently explain the underlying and impacting determinants, or how change came about and led to the desired adoption, whether short or long-term, of more energy efficient behaviours.
This study therefore aims to explore how the adoption of more energy efficient behaviours at home could be encouraged. With this the research has the objective to better understand the different determinants of energy use at home, the underlying motivations, barriers and potential intervention strategies. To achieve this the study uses an exploratory and iterative multi-method approach consisting of survey questionnaires, followed by qualitative research through focus groups targeted at energy users at home, and also individual in-depth interviews with energy conservation intervention practitioners.
The findings of this research show that if the rate of adoption of more energy efficient behaviours is to increase, then interventions that are focusing on providing information or financial incentives, are unlikely to work for a large proportion of energy users. Instead, the adoption of more energy efficient behaviours at home is seen to depend on the ability of intervention strategies to challenge existing norms, thus creating new understandings, expectations and utilization of energy services that could manifest in the adoption of more energy efficient behaviours. With this findings also suggest that community-based initiatives might be an adequate means to challenge social norms and to bring about change.
Home Energy Management
This document discusses home energy management and the need for consumers to save energy and money on their bills. It notes that 90% of consumers want to save but lack information and easy controls. Smart meters and smart home technology can help by automating energy use, providing real-time usage data, and enabling remote control capabilities. Studies show feedback on energy use can reduce consumption by 5-15% by making consumers more aware of their habits and the impact of changes.
Saving energy with smart plugs Jochem Liander
Liander, a grid operator in the Netherlands, conducted a pilot program using smart plugs to measure and reduce energy usage in their offices and households. The smart plugs measured energy usage of connected appliances and allowed for remote switching. In offices, the plugs were installed on computers, monitors, copiers, and lighting. This led to an average 13% energy savings, with potential for more if computers were switched off after hours. In households, consumers saved 3.5% on average but savings varied depending on engagement. The pilot provided insights on improving user interfaces and engagement to achieve greater energy reductions.
Energy saving
The document describes an electricity monitoring system that forecasts energy consumption and analyzes trends and anomalous data. It monitors electricity usage, uses 2D and 3D modeling, and forms automated reports. The target market includes energy companies and large consumers of energy. The system offers competitive advantages over others. It was developed by a team including a project programmer, professor, and researcher who developed forecasting methodologies for large organizations. To further develop the system, it needs reliable investors and distributors.
Supporting Sustainable Living: Aware Homes and Smart Occupants
Awareness of resource consumption in the home is a key part of reducing our ecological footprint, yet lack of appropriate understanding and motivation often deters residents from behaviour change. We report on the design and implementation an in-home system that supports residents in awareness of resource use, facilitates efficient control of house systems, and encourages conservation in daily activities. Initial responses from deployments in two high-profile sustainable homes indicate the potential this holistic approach has in engaging residents in sustainable living. We present the design rationale for our approach, and discuss the challenges and opportunities we have addressed.

The two streams are fused through late fusion to output activity recognition results with high accuracy on benchmark datasets.
Changing behaviour to reduce energy demand
How can we use technology to persuade individuals to reduce their consumption of non-renewable resources? Presented at Cambridge University Computer Lab on 18 Dec 2009
Count Us In Webinar
Rising energy costs and welfare cuts continue to put a strain on household budgets, with the worst affected being forced to choose between heating, eating or paying the rent.
Investment in physical improvements to homes have gone some way to helping households save energy. However there is growing recognition that the way people use their homes is a critical determinant of how much energy is actually saved.
But given many households may be under heating their homes, how best can we help residents to safely manage their use? And how can we reach many residents with limited resources?
This webinar will talk you through findings from the Count Us In project, and will cover:
• What works when helping residents change their behaviour
• The national smart meter roll out and how this could help
• How best to deliver effective engagement with limited resources
• The right messages to use with residents
• What help and resources are available to support you
• An opportunity to ask questions and share your experiences

Under supervision from AL-Bairaqintro to environmental science
The disappearance of the golden toad in Costa Rica's Monteverde cloud forest in 1999 was one of the earliest observed effects of climate change. Scientists believe rising temperatures caused the clouds to lift higher, drying out the frogs' environment. This event highlights the emerging field of environmental science, which studies human interactions with the environment using various disciplines like ecology, chemistry, geology, and social sciences. Sound scientific practice requires testing hypotheses through reproducible experiments and openly reporting results, even if they disprove initial hypotheses.
G7 Science Q1- Week 1-Scientific Investagation.ppt
This document describes the steps of the scientific method. It begins by explaining what science is and how scientists conduct scientific investigations. It then outlines the key components of a scientific investigation, which are: 1) asking a question and making observations, 2) developing a hypothesis, 3) designing and conducting an experiment, 4) analyzing results, 5) drawing conclusions, 6) communicating results. It provides an example of using the scientific method to test the hypothesis that adding more sugar increases the rise of bread. The example walks through defining variables, designing trials, collecting and analyzing data, and drawing a conclusion.
Scientific method ii
The document discusses the scientific method, which is a process used to solve problems through observation, hypothesis, experimentation, and conclusion. It involves four basic steps: 1) observing a problem, 2) proposing a hypothesis to explain it, 3) designing an experiment to test the hypothesis, and 4) analyzing results to draw a conclusion. The scientific method aims to eliminate bias by relying only on facts and data from experiments. It is important because it provides a systematic process for developing knowledge based on evidence rather than assumptions.

ES7 - Components of Scientific Investigation.pdf
This document discusses the key components of scientific investigation: observations, formulation of problems, and variables. It explains that scientific investigations typically begin with observations using the five senses. Observations can be qualitative, involving description, or quantitative, involving exact measurements. Formulating problems involves asking questions based on observations of interest. When formulating problems, it is important to identify the independent variable being manipulated, the dependent variable being measured, and keep other variables constant. Several examples are provided to illustrate these concepts.
The Scientific Method 2011 acloutier copyright 2011
The document outlines the scientific method, which is a process used by scientists to investigate questions and phenomena in a systematic way. It discusses that while there are varying versions, the core steps generally include formulating a question, developing a hypothesis, conducting an experiment, analyzing data, drawing conclusions, and communicating results. The document also notes that while scientists use this method in their work, not all steps are always needed, and that businesses have also adapted aspects of the scientific method to help solve problems.
Scientific method
The document outlines the scientific method and measurement units taught in a high school physics and chemistry course. It discusses key topics like what scientific method entails, making measurements, errors in measurements, and the metric system. The scientific method involves observing, questioning, hypothesizing, experimenting, analyzing results, and concluding. Measurements have units and can be precise but imprecise. The metric system was developed to standardize measurement units internationally and is now the predominant system used worldwide.
Consumers as Researchers - can mobile get us closer to consumer truths?
This document discusses using smartphones for qualitative market research. It provides examples of projects where consumers used their smartphones to document their lives over a set period of time. While this allowed researchers to gain insights more cost effectively, it also presented challenges related to managing large amounts of user-generated content and ensuring respondents captured the desired information. The document concludes mobile research has benefits but also requires careful planning to address technical difficulties and get the type of data needed.
How to investigate behavior and cognitive abilities in rodents in a social gr...
This webinar focused on behavioral phenotyping of rodents by automated cage-system. Presenters Dr. Ewelina Knapska, Dr. David Wolfer, and Dr. Holger Russig provide insights into high-throughput cognition testing of individual rodents within their social environment, discussing how this supports increased animal welfare and decreased data variability and workload for the researcher.
During this exclusive webinar sponsored by TSE Systems, presenters review automated home-cage behavioral phenotyping using the IntelliCage system and discuss several research applications including the study of hippocampus-dependent spatial learning tasks, measuring motor impulsivity, studying the role of MMP-9 in the central amygdala in learning of appetitively and aversively motivated behaviors, and assessing cognitive rigidity in a mouse models of autism. After establishing basic concepts, presenters demonstrate how freely programmable behavioral tasks can be controlled and how to link them to established paradigms performed in biomedical and basic behavioral, neurobiological, psychiatric, pharmacological and genetic research. The implications for understanding therapeutic strategies is also discussed.
Key Topics:
how to transfer concepts of established behavioral paradigms into the automated home-cage phenotyping
simultaneous monitoring of different measures of mouse behavior
comparing different behaviors in well-balanced conditions
the involvement of MMP-9 in the central amygdala in learning of appetitively and aversively motivated behaviors
prescreening of subjects using spontaneous behavior during adaptation to optimize cognitive tests
hippocampus-dependent spatial learning tasks
G7 Science Q1- Week 1-Scientific Investagation.ppt
The document describes the steps of the scientific method. It begins with making observations and asking questions to define a problem. A hypothesis is then formulated as a predicted answer. An experiment is designed to test the hypothesis, which involves identifying independent and dependent variables. The experiment is conducted and the results are recorded, analyzed and used to draw a conclusion about whether the hypothesis is supported or needs revision. Finally, the results are communicated. The document provides an example of a student investigating how sugar content affects bread rising to demonstrate how to apply the scientific method.

What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightness
What's a worker’s market? Job quality and labour market tightnessLabour Market Information Council | Conseil de l’information sur le marché du travail
In a tight labour market, job-seekers gain bargaining power and leverage it into greater job quality—at least, that’s the conventional wisdom.
Michael, LMIC Economist, presented findings that reveal a weakened relationship between labour market tightness and job quality indicators following the pandemic. Labour market tightness coincided with growth in real wages for only a portion of workers: those in low-wage jobs requiring little education. Several factors—including labour market composition, worker and employer behaviour, and labour market practices—have contributed to the absence of worker benefits. These will be investigated further in future work.Independent Study - College of Wooster Research (2023-2024)
"Does Foreign Direct Investment Negatively Affect Preservation of Culture in the Global South? Case Studies in Thailand and Cambodia."
Do elements of globalization, such as Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), negatively affect the ability of countries in the Global South to preserve their culture? This research aims to answer this question by employing a cross-sectional comparative case study analysis utilizing methods of difference. Thailand and Cambodia are compared as they are in the same region and have a similar culture. The metric of difference between Thailand and Cambodia is their ability to preserve their culture. This ability is operationalized by their respective attitudes towards FDI; Thailand imposes stringent regulations and limitations on FDI while Cambodia does not hesitate to accept most FDI and imposes fewer limitations. The evidence from this study suggests that FDI from globally influential countries with high gross domestic products (GDPs) (e.g. China, U.S.) challenges the ability of countries with lower GDPs (e.g. Cambodia) to protect their culture. Furthermore, the ability, or lack thereof, of the receiving countries to protect their culture is amplified by the existence and implementation of restrictive FDI policies imposed by their governments.
My study abroad in Bali, Indonesia, inspired this research topic as I noticed how globalization is changing the culture of its people. I learned their language and way of life which helped me understand the beauty and importance of cultural preservation. I believe we could all benefit from learning new perspectives as they could help us ideate solutions to contemporary issues and empathize with others.
