UNIFIED ALGORITHM FOR DEMAND-SIDE APPLIANCE COMMITMENT

Unified Algorithm for Demand-Side Appliance Commitment

Recent energy efficiency and conservation programs have created an unprecedented demand for home energy management systems (HEMS) in the residential sector aimed at reducing electricity consumption and saving on electricity bills.This paper gives a brief review of the basic algorithms found in the literature for HEMS that target optimum scheduling

Net ecosystem exchange from two formerly afforested peatlands undergoing restoration in the Flow Country of northern Scotland

Northern peatlands are important in the global carbon (C) cycle as they help regulate local, regional and global C budgets through high here atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) uptake and low net CO2 losses to the atmosphere.Since the 1900s (but particularly the 1950s) land-use change has affected many peatland areas, driven in part by attempts to imp
