Imagine all the systems in your home (hvac, electrical, hyrdo, lighting, security, electronics/appliances, motion/environmental sensors) are linked wirelessly to a central computer interface at home, with a dashboard and guage/meter giving direct quantitative feedbacks to the performance and consumption volume for each of these systems. An algorithm could be set up to run all these linked systems (by switching on the 'energy-saving mode like on your laptop) that respond to changing weather conditions, occupancy load, and fluctuation in utility pricing throughout the day to avoid costly peak hour consumptions. You could also override the system via your smart phone by inputing your own custom preferences with regards to your lifestyle behaviour, routine activities, and personal comfort.
