“…Nevertheless, the benefits of including fog in the proposed game-theoretical model are not shown in the results. In addition to [47], the same group of scientists have published several other articles on smart homes with fog computing (such as job scheduling based solution in [48], greedy algorithm based approach in [49], an MAS-based genetic algorithm in [50], and many others), therefore, the interested readers can refer to these researches if required. Likewise, another game-theoretical model is provided in [51] where a multi-leader-follower game approach is used to model the interactions between energy providers and consumers as game players, however, fog computing is not 9 addressed in this paper.…”

Energy plays a pivotal role for economic development of a country. A reliable energy source is needed to improve the living standards of people. To achieve such a goal, governments and industries are trying to install a new energy infrastructure called the "Smart Grid". This helps to manage the electricity generation and distribution in an efficient manner. Buildings and other structures are the biggest consumers of electricity. There is a need to reduce the energy consumption so that the resources can be utilized efficiently. Therefore, in this paper, we give a comprehensive state-of-the-art on various recent techniques and solutions which provide energy savings in smart homes and buildings. This includes statistical models, cloud computing based solutions, fog computing and smart metering based architectures, and several other IoT (internet of things) inspired solutions. We also present a hypothetical model that treats energy supply and usage in buildings as a self-managing energy system (SES). This paper is concluded by highlighting several open issues and challenges related to energy management in buildings.INDEX TERMS Energy Management, Smart Buildings and Homes.
