In order to save volume of home energy consumption effectively, this paper proposes the method for being aware of factors with influence on energy consumption and then confirms if it works for practical data by numerical experimentation. The basic idea is based on the combination of information entropy for the former and on Bayesian network for the latter. Using 345 responses for the questionnaire...
In order to save home energy consumption, this paper proposes an indirect control method. “Indirect” in this paper means that the system notifies users to control their life style and usage of home equipments. The basic idea is as follows: (1) Collect home energy consumption data with personal property including their life style by Web-based questionnaire, (2) Notify consumers their status of energy...
We have fabricated a thin-film transistor (TFT) in which a gate oxide layer possesses a stack structure with an ultrathin interfacial SiO2 layer formed by the nitric acid oxidation of silicon (NAOS) method at room temperature and a 40 nm CVD SiO2 layer. The drain current-voltage characteristics show that TFT with NAOS interfacial layer can be operated at 3 V (the conventional operation voltage is...
