Try 
Electronic House
56790 Magnetic Drive
Mishawaka, IN 56790
(219) 256-2060
as a good magazine on all sorts of things.

From the latest issue that I just got a maker of a PC based controller
that also listens to signals so it knows what other controllers have
done is
Enerlogic Systems Inc.
Dept EH
4 Townsend West, Suite 3
Nashua, NH 03063
(603) 880-4066

I subscribe to the magazine and it has some interesting articles.  All I
have so far is just the X-10 modules and controllers with a GE
Homeminder that Radio Shack remaindered.
