-=== Wiring Details ===+== Wiring Details == 
 + 
 +After installing the components on the boards, you will now need to connect the components with the processor. 
 + 
 +Each component has at least three terminals: G (Ground), V (Voltage), S (Signal). The signal wire is the one that transfers the input and output signal in the system, while ground and voltage wires are for power supply.  
 + 
 +The following table is a list of which pin on the ESP32 board that you should connect to the signal terminal of the component.

-  * Apart from power measurements that track total energy used in the IoT system, there are other measurements that can be tracked for total energy reduction. +Apart from power measurements that track total energy used in the IoT system, there are other measurements that can be tracked for total energy reduction.\\ 
- **1. CPU Load**+  - __CPU Load__: 
 +    * Given that ESP32 microcontroller has a built-in processor, measurements of its cpu load can be calculated during its runtime through the calculating the total time the processor is idle, (active but not processing any tasks) from total runtime. 
 +    * ESP32 has a built in function to detect processor state in which it is idle. 
 +  - __Heap Memory Status__: 
 +    * ESP32 can also track the state/ status of its heap memory, that is utilized during runtime/ task performance/ computation, by installing ESP-IDF library on the arduino IDE, you can track and record the processor's free heap size and minimum free heap size throughout its runtime. 
 +  - __Memory space__: 
 +    * ESP32 can track its available memory during runtime, this is helpful to detect potential memory leaks during runtime. 
 +  - __FreeRTOS Task Monitoring__: 
 +    * ESP32 can also track its task during runtime with the FreeRTOS library, that will track task completion during runtime. 
 +  - __Input and Output Signal tracking__: 
 +    * ESP32 can also utilize available libraries like ESP32PulseCounter that can track amount of inputs and outputs it processed during task execution.

-ESP32 has a built in function to detect processor state in which it is idle. 
  
- **2. Heap Memory Status**+=== Behavioral Measurements === 
 +Behavioral measurements in the context of smart home systems and energy efficiency focus on how user habits and actions are influenced by the implemented systems. The goal is to evaluate whether the system encourages sustainable behaviors, such as conserving energy or adapting to environmentally friendly habits.
