Energy plays a pivotal role for economic development of a country. A reliable energy source is needed to improve the living standards of people. To achieve such a goal, governments and industries are trying to install a new energy infrastructure called the "Smart Grid". This helps to manage the electricity generation and distribution in an efficient manner. Buildings and other structures are the biggest consumers of electricity. There is a need to reduce the energy consumption so that the resources can be utilized efficiently. Therefore, in this paper, we give a comprehensive state-of-the-art on various recent techniques and solutions which provide energy savings in smart homes and buildings. This includes statistical models, cloud computing based solutions, fog computing and smart metering based architectures, and several other IoT (internet of things) inspired solutions. We also present a hypothetical model that treats energy supply and usage in buildings as a self-managing energy system (SES). This paper is concluded by highlighting several open issues and challenges related to energy management in buildings.INDEX TERMS Energy Management, Smart Buildings and Homes.

“…Although an advanced data management system can be used to measure a building's energy performance, the presence of a common IoT-based security standard would still be mandatory. Furthermore, in [91], the authors suggest the most essential security requirements are the information integrity, mutual trust, and authentication.…”

“…Self-powered sensors based on emerging triboelectric nanogenerator technology have been demonstrated to possess promising sensing capabilities with numerous advantages, such as simple structure, high robustness, and low cost (Wang, 2014;Pu et al, 2017;Zhang et al, 2017;Xiao et al, 2021;Zhao et al, 2021;Conta et al, 2021;Peng, 2021;Mahmud et al, 2021;Chen et al, 2016;Yan, 2020;Xu et al, 2020). Such sensors are capable of generating significant electrical signals in response to ambient stimuli without external power supply (Huang et al, 2021;Su et al, 2020a;Tat et al, 2021;Zou et al, 2020;Zou, 2021).…”

“…Wearable technology can be an innovative solution to current medical problems with the ability to continuously monitor both physiological and biochemical markers and physical activities and behaviors [4][5][6][7][8]. Vital signs such as heart rate, body temperature, and blood pressure are measured [9,10]. Through the use of these signs, including electrocardiogram, electromyogram and biological fluid oxygen saturation and physical activity, the personal health condition can be characterized and monitored [11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19][20].…”

Recent advances in microfluidics, microelectronics, and electrochemical sensing methods have steered the way for the development of novel and potential wearable biosensors for healthcare monitoring. Wearable bioelectronics has received tremendous attention worldwide due to its great a potential for predictive medical modeling and allowing for personalized point-of-care-testing (POCT). They possess many appealing characteristics, for example, lightweight, flexibility, good stretchability, conformability, and low cost. These characteristics make wearable bioelectronics a promising platform for personalized devices. In this paper, we review recent progress in flexible and wearable sensors for non-invasive biomonitoring using sweat as the bio-fluid. Real-time and molecular-level monitoring of personal health states can be achieved with sweat-based or perspiration-based wearable biosensors. The suitability of sweat and its potential in healthcare monitoring, sweat extraction, and the challenges encountered in sweat-based analysis are summarized. The paper also discusses challenges that still hinder the full-fledged development of sweat-based wearables and presents the areas of future research.
