In the past, electric meters had to be manually read by a company representative. Smart meters report usage in real-time over the Internet.  They will also notify the power company when there is an outage, reset thermostats according to the  homeowner's directives, send messages to display units in the home and regulate the water heater."<a href="http://internetofthingsagenda.techtarget.com/definition/pervasive-computing-ubiquitous-computing" target="_blank">Source</a></blockquote>
