Home Automation refers to connecting to the devices/appliances in your home via the internet. Most devices today that fall into this category are Wi-Fi enabled, and connect with your router to allow you remote access via a cell phone or tablet app. Some are merely configured to alert you to crucial changes, while others allow you to affect change from afar. Many processes can be automated to respond either to detected changes or to be on a specific schedule depending on the day and time.
