This is the first week in the 3rd milestone. I am now working in the team which will create a program to simulate data for energy usage in the dorms. The simulation will be able to produce data depending which devices are used by the residents at different times during the day.
One very important thing that we needed to get cleared out of the way was the terms that we would need to use during our development of this project. These terms include power (the present flow of watts), energy (power over time), and demand (average rate of energy use over time). This is very important as we proceed so that we have a consistent understanding and implementation throughout our program.
We have not met yet to discuss how we will break up the work, but I will be doing research into the devices that would typically be found in a dorm room and finding the energy use while they are on/off. I will also be looking into their current program which sends data.
