i'll go ahead and google this but i'm hoping you could elaborate on some of these techniques if you recall off the top of your head.

Without claiming that all of the following approach work (I don't know exactly) but to give you some pointers:
1)
App Review: Easy Wakeup which monitors sleep patterns through the movement sensor of the iphone
2)
HappyWakeUp TM Smart Alarm Clock on Mobile Phone And all mornings are created equal… Happy WakeUp - Smart alarm clock on your mobile phone iphone/nokia clock that uses the microphone to monitor breathing to deduce the sleep pattern
3)
Sleeptracker the Unique Alarm Clock, Wake Up Easier - Sleeptracker the Sleep Watch is a hardware watch that does the same thing as the first iphone app
It also allows logs the data about your sleep pattern for your latter review.
4)
iMusic | Volume Three by Volition Thought House: your Soundtrack for Morning Success uses brainwave entertainment to control the sleep state and increase the volume till it awakes you over 30 minutes.
5) Waking up without an alarm clock. It's not a skill that I personally have but there are quite a few people who can and it's probably possible to learn it.
Hypnosis might help in that area.
Self hypnosis tapes are also a way to get to sleep at a specific time.
6) The idea of waking up at the same time each day of the week might also allows your body to adept and have it's cycle finished at 5 AM. Your brain can learn to do things. The only problem in sleep is that all the important things are outside your conscious awareness.
This is also one of the reasons why you should wake up at the same time each day.
If you have better monitoring equipment like an EEGs or maybe heart rate monitors you could maybe do a better job at monitoring sleep states and do an even better job at waking up.
