In-depth literature search

Following my library skills session this morning, I conducted a more thorough search of the my field of NIALM.

I searched the following databases:

• Web of Science
• Inspec
• Compendex
• LNCS

For the following search terms:

• Non-Intrusive Appliance Load Monitoring (relevant results)
• NIALM (few, very relevant results)
• NILM (non-domestic applications of load monitoring)
• NALM (many irrelevant results)

Among the masses of papers I collected, the following are the most interesting:

• Ruzzelli AG, Nicolas C, Schoofs A, O’Hare GMP. Real-Time Recognition and Profiling of Appliances through a Single Electricity Sensor. In: Sensor Mesh and Ad Hoc Communications and Networks (SECON), 2010 7th Annual IEEE Communications Society Conference on.; 2010:1-9.
• Murata H, Onoda T. Applying Kernel Based Subspace Classification to a Non-intrusive Monitoring for Household Electric Appliances. In: Dorffner G, Bischof H, Hornik K, eds. Artificial Neural Networks - ICANN 2001.Vol 2130. Springer Berlin / Heidelberg; 2001:692-698. Available at: http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/3-540-44668-0_96.
• Benyoucef D, Bier T, Klein P. Planning of energy production and management of energy resources with Smart Meters. In: Advances in Energy Engineering (ICAEE), 2010 International Conference on.; 2010:170-173.
• Pihala H. Non-intrusive appliance load monitoring system based on a modern kWh-meter. Vtt Publications 365. 1998;(May).

I'm planning to start reading through each of these four tomorrow morning, in order of relevance.
