Abstract

This issue’s Works in Progress department lists eight projects with a focus on environmental sustainability. The first three projects explore sensing and pervasive computing techniques for monitoring environmental conditions in outdoor situations. The next four projects use pervasive computing in indoor environments to inform individuals about their energy and resource consumption with the goal of positively influencing their behaviors. The final project aims to develop an energy generation infrastructure that combines multiple types of renewable energy sources.
