                         and assist users in calculating their energy consumption by means 
                         of IoT technologies. It is necessary to create a system to improve 
                         and help the user in their consumption-based planning due to 
                         advances in technology. This implementation can be achieved with 
                         the use of IoT (Internet of Things) and thus ensure user 
                         convenience and comfort, which is the main goal of a smart home. 
                         These technologies involve the interoperability of the data 
                         obtained from each appliance and the location of users between the 
                         communication hardware layers specified for monitoring. This paper 
                         also provides information about cloud services, which are made 
                         available by middleware and may also include new external 
                         applications. The architecture offers details about consumption 
                         and recommends means to improve it by creating profiles which can 
                         help end users in making decisions for better optimization of the 
                         consumption rate that matches the demands of the customers or the 
                         electric power utility. This paper concludes that this 
                         architecture is very promising and new and viable technologies can 
                         be implemented to make significant improvements for the residents 
                         and electric power utilities.",
