Abstract

The topic of energy saving in buildings is increasingly raising the interest of researchers for its practical outcomes in terms of economic advantages and long-term environmental sustainability. Many sensory devices are currently available that allow precise monitoring of every physical quantity; in particular, it is possible to obtain estimates of energy consumption, which can be used to enact proper energy-saving strategies. Such devices may be considered part of a complex sensor infrastructure permeating the whole site of interest, which may be characterized by the adopted protocols and architectural models.
