In this paper, the authors discuss a power allocation management system to maximize user's Quality-of-Life, keeping total power consumption within a limited amount of available power, which is implemented utilizing smart outlets, a controller and a power allocation algorithm. We can treat power allocation for energy-saving and reducing peak load as the knapsack problem, regarding that an appliance as an item, importance of the appliance for user's life as the profit of the item, power consumption of the appliance as size of the item, a power source as a knapsack, and an available power amount of the power source as capacity of the knapsack. We describe a prototype implementation and evaluation of a power allocation management system utilizing an algorithm for the knapsack problem implemented on a controller and smart outlets, which are power strips with functions of power measurement, power control and communication. |
