1. An introduction
ZigBee is the new standard which is developed by ZigBee Alliance for personal area network (Pans). Consisting of over 270 companies (including Freescale, Ember, Mitsubishi, Philips, Honeywell, and Texas Instruments), ZigBee Alliance is a consortium that promotes the ZigBee standard for wireless sensor and control network low-rate/low-power. ZigBee protocol stack designed for IEEE 802.15.4, which defines the Media Access Control (MAC) and physical layer for low rate wireless personal area networks (LR-WPAN). ZigBee standard offers a profile that defines the network layer stack, security, and applications. Developers must be responsible for their own created application profile or integrate with public a profile which is developed by the ZigBee Alliance. ZigBee specification is an open standard which allows manufacturers to develop their own specialized applications requiring low cost and lower energy.
The manual was prepared an introduction to the various components of the ZigBee network. After a quick overview of ZigBee, we begin with a description of high level concepts which are used in wireless communications and move to specific protocols required to perform communication standards. This is followed by a description using the Rabbit-based boards and Dynamic C library to create a ZigBee network.
2. The technology’s application: where, how it works and who is using it.
Where it works?
Freescale has wide portfolio of ZigBee-enabled ICs and low-power microcontroller (MCU) which forms an ideal platform for ZigBee-enabled network. MC13224V Freescale ZigBee ™ Platform package (PIP) is the newest low-power our platform for ZigBee devices. The highly integrated pip MC13224V simplify RF design, allowing many clie...

Efficiency is not always the answer, according to David Owen, in his novel The Conundrum, explains that society is headed in the wrong direction, believing that to be greener we need to make our everyday lives more efficient when in reality we need to change our behavior. As consumers, people want to be sustainable and preserve the Earth while greedily expanding our collection of trinkets. Efficiency can be beneficial, but to make the world a greener one, it is essential for people to change their behavior, not efficiency of the products.
Anticipate the moment at which all your personal electronic devices - headphone audio player, cellular telephone, pager, dictaphone, camcorder, personal digital assistant (PDA), electronic stylus, radiomodem, calculator, Loran positioning system, smart spectacles, VCR remote, data glove, electronic jogging shoes that count your steps and flash warning signals at oncoming cars, medical monitoring system, pacemaker (if you are so unfortunate), and anything else that you might habitually wear or occasionally carry - can seamlessly be linked in a wireless bodynet that allows them to function as an integrated system and connects them to the worldwide digital network.

The Home Depot was responding well to the needs of the customers when they launched the Eco Options brand label. This is considered as one the favorable option from the customer point of view as they thought The Home Depot is caring the needs of them. And so the chances of purchase by a customer increased as the perceptions are more favorable to them. This led to the increase in the performance as well as the revenue which made the shareholders happier. By this, the balanced scorecard would be always on a positive note (Morganbridges, 2016, p. 1).
The Unistep IRP Elexol EtherIO 24 Module is a network board that enables multiple devices to connect to an Ethernet network, communicate with each other, and relay information when changes occur. The IRP module is a micro-controller, integrated with many features for interacting with devices connected on a generic local area network; this module was designed to be used in conjunction with other network devices or modules. Some of the applications for the device include industrial automation, digital input and output functions, system monitoring, remote data accessing, controlled machinery, and remote power control.
The Group is constantly analysing how its products help its customers develop more sustainable processes and reduced emissions It has been listed on the Dow Jones Sustainability World Index (DJSI) for the fourth year in a row. Linde’s sustainability performance change thus continues to rank in the top 10% of its industry. In all, twenty categories in the areas of economic, environmental and social performance were assessed, with such as customer focus, innovation management and compliance coming under as much scrutiny as environment protection, product stewardship and labour practices. Linde received special recognition this year in a number of areas, in particular for its reporting on environmental and social topics. They figures the value of our products with regard to sustainability.

Air lite, for example, represents an eco-friendly technology advance by purifying the air around working like leaves on the trees, eliminating bacteria, mold, and functioning as a filter that eliminates toxic substances. It also reduces the energy consumption in about a 15-50% as it reflects the hot component of sunlight, avoiding that rooms overheat (EASME, 2017).
The propose research will address a problem confronting many two year institutions in the present-day (i.e. how to best plan, design, and implement WLAN technologies). While WLAN technologies offer the benefits of mobility, reduced installation time, and decreased cost, many challenges must be met by institutions deploying them (Geier, 2005). These issues are related to security, speed, interoperability, and equipment selection, ease of use, reliability, signal interference, installation, and health risks.
Typical loans don’t cover the cost of incorporating green aspects when choosing to build eco-friendly. However, there certain companies that offers energy efficient mortgages (EEM’s). One company, My Energy Loan (www.myEnergyLoan.com) does both residential and commercial eco-friendly loans, included in there services are ideas to help improve efficiency. They do an assessment and make suggestions on some ideas of improvements including lowe...
Any system that can connect to Bluetooth Low Energy devices and to a wide area network area network can serve as gateways.
IOT systems use a combination of short-range network communication technologies such as Bluetooth and ZigBee, which are used to carry the information from perception devices to a nearby gateway based on the capabilities of the communicating parties. Internet technologies such as WiFi, 2G, 3G, and 4G carry the information over long distances based on the application. Applications aim to create smart homes, smart cities, power system monitoring etc. [6] Today, it is hard to manage waste collection processes and management without the use of high technology to pinpoint the locations of vehicles and recycling bins [2].
The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical objects accessed through the Internet. The Network of interconnected objects harvests information from the environment (sensing) and interacts with the physical world (actuation/command/control), uses existing Internet standards to provide services for information transfer, analytics, applications and communications (Jiong et al. 2012).

There is a very solid reason for selecting green technology as compared to the other technologies available because there is a very limited amount of natural resources like coal, petroleum available to man kind and these are getting depleted at an alarming rate. Moreover, green technology is turning out to be a good business these days as the market for greener products is increasing day by day. Consumers know that green products reduce their energy bills and these are always safer and healthier products to use, explains [1].
