Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for monitoring energy use habits of consumers. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining temperature data from a monitored property. An energy model of the monitored property is generated based on the obtained temperature data. The current temperature data is obtained from the monitored property. The current temperature data is provided to the generated energy model to generate a duty-cycle for turning an HVAC system of the monitored property off an on during the on-peak hours. The HVAC system of the monitored property is instructed to cycle off and on during the on-peak hours based on the generated duty-cycle.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for managing sensor communications in a monitored environment. One of the methods includes receiving, by a server and from a device that is accepted to connect with a first network using acceptance data that includes a first key indicating the device is associated with the first network, a request a) to join a second network different from the first network b) that identifies the first key; determining, by the server and using the identification of the first key in the request, that the device that transmitted the request is associated with the first network; and providing, by the server, an notification i) to a user associated with the first network ii) indicating that the device has moved outside the first network.

Abstract: A composite structure and method for constructing same for use in fabricating the framework of a spacecraft is disclosed. The structure is cut from flat sheets of composite laminate materials, and then assembled. The use of tenons and mortises provides for self-fixturing and adhesive bonding of the structural components.
