With rising shares of renewables and the need to properly assess trade-offs between transmission, storage and sectoral integration as balancing options, building a bridge between energy system models and detailed power flow studies becomes…
Emerging optical and virtualization technologies enable the design of more flexible and demand-aware networked systems, in which resources can be optimized toward the actual workload they serve. For example, in a demand-aware datacenter…
In this paper, we introduce Voltage Phasor Control (VPC), also known as Phasor Based Control, as a novel way of implementing Optimal Power Flow (OPF). Unlike conventional OPF, in which the power flow optimization broadcasts power…
Energy neutral operation of WSNs can be achieved by exploiting the idleness of the workload to bring the average power consumption of each node below the harvesting power available. This paper proposes a combination of state-of-the-art…
The growing integration of distributed energy resources into distribution systems poses challenges for voltage regulation. Dynamic VAR Compensators (DVCs) are a new generation of power electronics-based Volt/VAR compensation devices…
Energy consumption has become a first-class optimization goal in design and implementation of data-intensive computing systems. This is particularly true in the design of database management systems (DBMS), which was found to be the major…

In this paper, we address the problem of coordinating a set of distributed energy resources (DERs) to regulate voltage in power distribution systems to desired levels. To this end, we formulate the voltage control problem as an optimization…
The need for scalable and efficient stream analysis has led to the development of many open-source streaming data processing systems (SDPSs) with highly diverging capabilities and performance characteristics. While first initiatives try to…
Volt-var control (VVC) is the problem of operating power distribution systems within healthy regimes by controlling actuators in power systems. Existing works have mostly adopted the conventional routine of representing the power systems (a…
The paper deals with the optimal sizing and allocation of dispersed generation, and distributed storage systems. The optimization aims at minimizing the sum of the costs sustained by the distributor for the power losses, for network…
In an aircraft electric power system (EPS), a supervisory control unit must actuate a set of switches to distribute power from generators to loads, while satisfying safety, reliability and real-time performance requirements. To reduce…
Architecture-based heat dissipation analyses allow us to reveal fundamental sources of inefficiency in a given processor and thereby provide us with road-maps to design less dissipative computing schemes independent of technology-base used…
Modern computing paradigms, such as cloud computing, are increasingly adopting GPUs to boost their computing capabilities primarily due to the heterogeneous nature of AI/ML/deep learning workloads. However, the energy consumption of GPUs is…
Deep neural networks (DNNs) have showcased remarkable performance across various tasks and are widely deployed on AI accelerators fabricated in advanced technology nodes for efficiency. As aging effects become more pronounced, timing and…
Designing networked control systems that are reliable and resilient against adversarial threats, is essential for ensuring the security of cyber-physical systems. This paper addresses the communication-control co-design problem for…
As energy proportional computing gradually extends the success of DVFS (Dynamic voltage and frequency scaling) to the entire system, DVFS control algorithms will play a key role in reducing server clusters' power consumption. The focus of…
