Intrusive plug management system using chatbots in office environments

“Only 44 percent of computers, 32 percent of monitors, and 25 percent of printers were turned off at night” [1], with energy efficient appliances employed in office environments, occupant's energy-conscious behavior plays a vital role in monitoring the plug load. In an attempt to involve the oc...
