HOLISTIC: An IoT system for residential water recycling based on open source technologies

摘要

This paper presents the design and implementation of a novel IT system that aims to monitor, control and manage residential water infrastructures. Even though reusing water and environmental resources has been a hot matter during the last years, there have been few cases where relative and innovative technologies have been applied. More specifically, the system can manage water flows coming from any source in the complex of building and redirect them to tanks or consumption points. The system may thus maximize water recycling and minimize costs for water and also offer recycling automation and policies for individual parts of residential complexes.
