Abstract :
In this paper, we propose an electricity (power) reduction method in a home (house). The proposed method assumes sensor networks which consist of smart taps, temperature sensors, light sensors, sleeping detection sensors, and human detection sensors. Furthermore, we made a modeling of the sensor networks and developed a simulation system to verify an effectiveness of the proposed method. From the evaluation by simulation, we verified effectiveness of the proposed method.
