A probabilistic demand side management approach by consumption admission control
[article]
2016
arXiv
pre-print
New generation electricity network called Smart Grid is a recently conceived vision for a cleaner, more efficient and cheaper electricity system. One of the major challenges of electricity network is that generation and consumption should be balanced at every moment. This paper introduces a new concept for controlling the demand side by the means of automatically enabling/disabling electric appliances to make sure that the demand is in match with the available supplies, based on the statistical

... characterization of the need. In our new approach instead of using hard limits we estimate the tail probability of the demand distribution and control system by using the principles and the results of statistical resource management.
Quadratic Programming for TDMA Scheduling in Wireless Sensor Networks
2011
International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks
This paper presents a novel Multihop Aperiodic Scheduling (MAS) algorithm which guarantees energy-efficient data collection by Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) under delay constraints. Present Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols in WSNs typically sacrifice packet latency and/or the reliability of packet transfer to achieve energy-efficiency. Thus, the paper is concerned with developing a novel protocol to achieve energy efficient and reliable multihop data transfer in WSNs satisfying given

... ncy requirements. Energy efficiency is achieved by optimizing the scheduling of the underlying Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) system by minimizing the wake-up number of the nodes. Schedule optimization is transformed into a quadratic programming (QP) task, which is then solved by the Hopfield net in polynomial time. In this way, an energy efficient scheduling can be obtained which meets a given delay requirement in TDMA systems. The performance of the new algorithm has been evaluated by simulations and compared to the performance of well-known scheduling methods, such as SMAC, UxDMA (a slot assignment algorithm for WSN), and traditional tree-based protocols. The simulations have demonstrated that our method reduces global power consumption for time-driven monitoring.
Improvements to the Hopfield Neural Network Solution of the TWT Scheduling Problem
2013
Periodica Polytechnica Electrical Engineering
This paper explores novel, polynomial time, heuristic, approximate solutions to the NP-hard problem of finding the optimal job schedule on identical machines which minimizes total weighted tardiness (TWT). We map the TWT problem to quadratic optimization and demonstrate that the Hopfield Neural Network (HNN) can successfully solve it. Furthermore, the solution can be significantly sped up by choosing the initial state of the HNN as the result of a known simple heuristic, we call this Smart

... eld Neural Network (SHNN). We also demonstrate, through extensive simulations, that by considering random perturbations to the Largest Weighted Process First (LWPF) and SHNN methods, we can introduce further improvements to the quality of the solution, we call the latter Perturbed Smart Hopfield Neural Network (PSHNN). Finally, we argue that due to parallelization techniques, such as the use of GPGPU, the additional cost of these improvements is small. Numerical simulations demonstrate that PSHNN outperforms HNN in over 99% of all randomly generated cases by an average of 3-7%, depending on the problem size. On a specific, large scale scheduling problem arising in computational finance at Morgan Stanley, one of the largest financial institutions in the world, PSHNN produced a 5% improvement over the next best heuristic.

Novel Load Balancing Algorithms Ensuring Uniform Packet Loss Probabilities for WSN
2011
2011 IEEE 73rd Vehicular Technology Conference (VTC Spring)
In this paper, we develop optimal scheduling mechanisms for packet forwarding in Wireless Sensor Network, where clusterheads are gathering information with a predefined Quality of Service. The objective is to ensure balanced energy consumption and to minimize the packet loss probability, subject to time constraints (i.e. different nodes must send all their packets within a given time interval). Novel solutions of scheduling are developed by combinatorial optimization, and by quadratic

... g methods. In our approach, the scheduling of packet forwarding is broken down to a discrete quadratic optimization problem and the optimum is sought by a Hopfield Neural Network yielding the solution in polynomial time. The scheduling provided by the Hopfield Neural Network indeed guarantees uniform packet loss probabilities for all the nodes and saves the energy of the clusterheads. In this way, the longevity of the network can be increased. Index Terms-scheduling, wireless sensor networks (WSN), quadratic optimization, Hopfield Neural Networks (HNN)
Microsimulation based quantitative analysis of COVID-19 management strategies
[article]
2021

Pandemic management includes a variety of control measures, such as social distancing, testing/quarantining and vaccination applied to a population where the virus is circulating. The COVID 19 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic is mitigated by several non-pharmaceutical interventions, but it is hard to predict which of these regulations are the most effective for a given population. Methods We developed a computationally effective and scalable, agent-based microsimulation framework. This unified framework

... s fitted to realistic data to enable us to test control measures (closures, quarantining, testing, vaccination) in multiple infection waves caused by the spread of a new virus variant in a city-sized societal environment. Our framework is capable of simulating nine billion agent steps per minute, allowing us to model interactions in populations with up to 90 million individuals. Findings We show that vaccination strategies prioritising occupational risk groups minimise the number of infections but allow higher mortality while prioritising vulnerable groups minimises mortality but implies increased infection rate. We also found that intensive vaccination and non-pharmaceutical interventions can substantially suppress the spread of the virus, while low levels of vaccination and premature reopening may easily revert the epidemic to an uncontrolled state. Interpretation Our analysis highlights that while vaccination protects the elderly from COVID-19, a large percentage of children will contract and spread the virus, and we also show the benefits and limitations of various quarantine and testing scenarios.

Novel Load Balancing Scheduling Algorithms for Wireless Sensor Networks

In this paper, optimal scheduling mechanisms are developed for packet forwarding in wireless sensor networks, where clusterheads are gathering information. The objective is to monitor real-life processes for a given time interval and forward packets with minimum loss probabilities to the base station. In order to achieve this objective we develop an optimal scheduling algorithm, which determines the time slots in which packets must be sent by the nodes. The scheduling algorithm, on the one

The algorithm we propose is capable of providing optimal scheduling with given constraints and guarantees balanced load in polynomial time.
Automated Categorization of Consumers Based on Consumption Forecast in Smart Grid
unpublished
Deploying smart meters in Smart Grid systems entails that large amount of measurement data is acquired. By processing and analyzing the data, relevant information can be obtained about the power consumers. One of the most important tasks is determining the main characteristics of the consumer in order to find the best suitable category. This categorization may be essential i) to optimize and estimate the load of transportation grid; ii) to provide the best rate for the consumer as well as the

In this paper, a categorization method based on forecasting consumption time series will be introduced to categorize consumers with different consumption patterns with good performance. The performance of the method was subject of analysis, and the new algorithm is proved to be usable in real applications.
