Previous project as described by Tyler

Create an index of device types to eGuages monitoring that device type by:

  1. Downloading HTML directly from an eGuage website.
  2. Parsing the HTML to discover what types of devices are connected to the eGuage.
  3. For each type discovered:
  4. Create a directory and single text file within that directory for that type if they do not exist.
  5. Append the eGuage name to the text file.

Current project Phase 1 as described by Prashant and David

  • Operates on existing data.
  • Currently the existing data has a file for each eGuage containing power consumption data for each device connected to it.
  • We want to parse those files so that we can access the power consumption data for each device directly.
  • These devices also have arbitrary device descriptions. We'll need to map these device descriptions to tags that represent certain device types.

Current project Phase 2 as described by Prashant and David

  • Repeat Phase 1 on live data.
  • The live data has much greater resolution. For example, 1 second vs. 1 minute.

Stretch goal as described by Prashant and David

  • Create a website to deliver this data to researchers.

Logistics

  • Our space in room 307. Patrick will be there from 9-4 most weekdays. The schedule is flexible within those times.
  • We'll be using Github.
  • Patrick has suggested using Python 2.7 by installing Anaconda. It uses conda for package management and has bundled modules.

Discussion about Program 7/8/15

  • The project needs to be divided smaller parts so that everyone can have a part.
  • The goal is to take the data that we have now and to make individual text documents for each device.
  • A possible way to divide into Metadata (E-Gage, Description, Label etc...)
