Remote control of an electronic device through downloading of a control interface of the electronic device in a mobile station

A wireless communication system includes a number of controllable electronic devices and a mobile station for communication with one of the controllable electronic devices through a short-range wireless communication link, when in-range with the one controllable electronic device. The mobile station includes a display screen and a browser. The mobile station and the one controllable electronic device form a client-server pair. Through the short-range wireless communication link, the client requests the server to download a control interface stored at the server. Upon downloading, a browser is used to navigate through control menu pages included in the control interface, and to post control parameter settings to the server. In the server, a program runs to interpret received control parameter settings, to invoke a control action in accordance with the received control parameter settings, and to instruct the client what to do next.

Hybrid energy market and currency system for total energy management

A hybrid energy market and currency system is provided to manage energy consumption in an energy market comprising a community of users. A central energy authority issues energy currency units to users and sets an exchange rate between the energy currency units and a monetary currency unit, thereby setting a variable price for energy. Energy currency units have a defined validity period at the end of which the energy currency unit is automatically converted to monetary currency units by the central energy authority. Users consume energy currency units through use of energy consumptive services, such as domestic consumption of electricity and water, and through use of transportation. Users are also able to buy additional energy currency units from the central energy authority, and to sell them back. Users cannot speculatively trade energy currency units. Prices are set by comparing the cumulative actual and desired demand
