UTILITY PROVISIONING WITH IOT ANALYTICS
First Claim
1. An analytic system to control operation of a machine, comprising:
- a sensor device to monitor power utilized by the machine, wherein the sensor device collects load data for the machine during startup; and
an analytic engine to determine a start time for the machine based at least in part on the load data for the machine received from the sensor device, and to communicate the start time to the machine.

Abstract
Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, an analytic system controls operation of a machine. The analytic system includes a sensor device to monitor power utilized by the machine, and to collect load data for the machine during startup. The analytic system further includes an analytic engine to determine a start time for the machine based at least in part on the load data for the machine received from the sensor device, and to communicate the determined start time to the machine. Start times for multiple machines may be selected wherein a maximum allowable current is not exceeded during the startup of the machines based at least in part on startup signatures for the machines generated from the load data.
