Abstract: Techniques for heating and/or cooling a structure including are described. The system may determine that a current indoor temperature is higher than both the current outdoor temperature and the target indoor temperature. Based on the determination, the system (in a cooling mode) may determine that a window opening criteria is met for opening one or more windows. Responsive to determining that the window opening criteria has been met, the system may instruct a window control mechanism to modify a state of the window from (a) a closed position that prevents airflow through the window to (b) an open position that allows for airflow through the window to cool a structure. Similarly, the system in a heating mode may open one or more windows when the current indoor temperature is lower than both the target indoor temperature and the current outdoor temperature.

Abstract: A system and method is described that computes an estimated current location for a client device based on both the detected current location and the predicted current location of the client device. By utilizing the predicted current location, the system and method may account for and compensate for anomalies and inaccuracies in the detected current location. Accordingly, the system and method provides a more accurate estimation for the current location of the client device based on examination of heuristics and a priori environmental data. In particular, the system and method compensates for detected locations that are impossible or improbable based on previous locations of the client device, the layout of the environment in which the client device is traversing, data describing the user of the client device, and/or data describing the client device.

Abstract: A non-transitory computer readable medium for location based access includes instructions which, when executed by one or more devices, causes performance of operations including identifying a physical location of a client device, determining that the physical location of the client device meets a criterion for allowing access through an entryway, identifying a permission level associated with the client device, determining that the permission level associated with the client device meets a criterion for allowing access through the entryway, and, responsive at least to determining that the criterion have been met, allowing access through the entryway.
