ACM BuildSys 2023 Workshop on RLEM2023Building operations account for a significant portion of global emissions, contributing approximately 28% of global greenhouse gas emissions, according to the International Energy Agency. With the anticipated increase in cooling demand due to rising global temperatures, the optimization of rooftop units (RTUs) in buildings becomes crucial for reducing energy consumption and associated emissions. We focus

Irrespective of the intent, malicious or benign, behind the origin of non-human traffic on sponsored advertising pages, failure to detect such unwanted traffic results in deterioration of advertiser performance metrics. Invalid (i.e., robotic) ad traffic is frequently driven by IP addresses (or address ranges) that are exclusively dedicated to VPNs, hosting or proxy services, Tor networks, as well as by

AAAI 2023 Workshop on Artificial Intelligence and Climate2023Rapid and continuous increase in greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is warming our planet at unprecedented rates. Consumer products and services, including all aspects of the corresponding supply chain, contribute to more than 75% of these emissions. Attribution of GHG emissions to each product will drive awareness and change from individual consumers to large corporations that produce and own these products

ESREL 20232023Understanding cumulative device activity over the lifetime of consumer electronic products is critical in two ways. First, it determines the extent to which a product maximizes utilization during its use, which is a critical consideration of circular products. Second, it allows for better estimations of the use phase carbon footprint, which is valuable in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) of consumer electronics

IRPS 20232023Investigation of li-ion battery state of health (SOH) degradation and its modeling facilitates determination of device warranty and can provide information about the device battery health. For such studies, batteries undergo life-cycling test with fixed cycling depths and charging currents (C-rates) across cycles, and the gathered degradation data is used for model development. However, in the real world
