But the top-down approach may have surprising advantages: in the establishment of the necessary standards to ensure that things can talk to things; in the construction of smart public infrastructure; and in the introduction of toll roads and other forms of metering.
There exists an integration of the micro-macro link when students summarize their complete understanding using multiple representations of the microscopic model, the macroscopic experimental evidence in the form of meter readings, and a graphical outcome.
In the case of energy conservation, this would typically involve showing people their current and/or past energy use in the form of meter readings or energy bills.
Pleistocene glacial activity is evident in the form of 500 meter (1,640 ft) deep struts in the volcanoes' sides.
The back-scarp and eastern flank of the Tjellefonna scar form several tens of meter high rock walls, while the basal failure surface and other parts of the scar are covered by rock avalanche debris that extend from the back-scarp down to the bottom of the Langfjord.

The company says its technology was in use in 200,000 homes, with "personalized energy data services" in 500,000 homes, with many of those in the form of smart meters.
At the time, the rocks would have been forming in tens of meters of cooler water at midlatitudes.
Arctic ice shelves grow by accumulating ice from seawater below and snowfall from above to form sheets tens of meters thick.
What's so surprising about "Our Andromeda" is that it revels in the poetic form — in singing, and the strictures of meter, and describing states of being in ways that are germane to the lyric — while indulging in that which is missing in all sorts of writing: the imagination.
