The ongoing deployment of smart meters and different commercial devices has made electricity disaggregation feasible in buildings and households, based on a single measure of the current and, sometimes, of the voltage. Energy disaggregation is intended to separate the total power consumption into specific appliance loads, which can be achieved by applying Non-Intrusive Load Monitoring (NILM) techniques with a minimum invasion of privacy. NILM techniques are becoming more and more widespread in recent years, as a consequence of the interest companies and consumers have in efficient energy consumption and management. This work presents a detailed review of NILM methods, focusing particularly on recent proposals and their applications, particularly in the areas of Home Energy Management Systems (HEMS) and Ambient Assisted Living (AAL), where the ability to determine the on/off status of certain devices can provide key information for making further decisions. As well as complementing previous reviews on the NILM field and providing a discussion of the applications of NILM in HEMS and AAL, this paper provides guidelines for future research in these topics.

The present paper describes the development and generalized use of the double or hollow wall system in masonry enclosures in Madrilenian residential architecture in the first two thirds of the twentieth century. The question is addressed, on the one hand, from the standpoint of comparative history, in which a clear awareness of evolutionary progress can be defined through certain recognizable architectural tendencies that arose during the technological revolution taking place in Europe and somewhat later in our country; in this regard, the

RESUMENLa Unidad Prototipo de Vivienda de Emergencia (UPVE) es el resultado del Proyecto de Investigación Aplicada VEM (Vivienda de Emergencia Militar) desarrollado con la colaboración de la Escuela Politécnica Superior de la Universidad CEU y la empresa Airbus Defense & Space. Es concebido como una unidad modular e industrializable de habitabilidad básica, de crecimiento programado y extensible, diseñada para proporcionar refugio y protección en entornos de crisis humanitaria o en contingencias de vulnerabilidad social con el fin de asegurar un hábitat sostenible de emergencia.La influencia que los procesos de construcción y materiales involucrados en la fabricación de dicha UPVE tienen en el medio ambiente, analizados mediante la metodología de Análisis de Ciclo de Vida (ACV), consideran especialmente crítico el reciclado de los materiales utilizados. Así, con el objetivo de analizar y disminuir el impacto medioambiental, se cuantifican cada una de las partes que componen la Unidad Prototipo desarrollada, valorando los beneficios resultantes de los procesos de fabricación en la disposición final de los materiales según la metodología DfMA (Design for Manufacturing and Assembly).Palabras clave: ACV; Vivienda de Emergencia Militar; construcción sostenible; DfMA.
