The deployment of Aerial Base Stations (ABSs) mounted on board Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) is emerging as a promising technology to provide connectivity in areas where terrestrial infrastructure is insufficient or absent. This may occur…

Range-based localization is ubiquitous: global navigation satellite systems (GNSS) power mobile phone-based navigation, and autonomous mobile robots can use range measurements from a variety of modalities including sonar, radar, and even…

"Geographic Load Balancing" is a strategy for reducing the energy cost of data centers spreading across different terrestrial locations. In this paper, we focus on load balancing among micro-datacenters powered by renewable energy sources.…

Grid energy storage can help to balance supply and demand, but its financial viability and operational carbon emissions impact is poorly understood because of the complexity of grid constraints and market outcomes. We analyse the impact of…

The optimal placement of measurement devices in electrical power systems is commonly modeled through the power dominating set problem. However, in real-world applications, these devices have limited capacities, leading to a capacitated…

This paper proposes a non-invasive fault location method for modular multilevel converters (MMC) considering light load conditions. The prior-art fault location methods of the MMC are often developed and verified under full load conditions.…

While humans become more reliant on Earth's space environment, the potential for significant harm from severe space weather continues to grow. As structures from the sun reach Earth's magnetosphere and space environment, they deposit energy…

Stochastic fluctuations in power injections from distributed energy resources (DERs) combined with load variability can cause constraint violations (e.g., exceeded voltage limits) in electric distribution systems. To monitor grid…

The increasing penetration of inertialess new renewable energy sources reduces the overall mechanical inertia available in power grids and accordingly raises a number of issues of grid stability over short to medium time scales. It has been…

Virtual machine (VM) placement is very important for cloud platforms. While techniques, such as live virtual machine migration, are very useful to balance the load in the data centers, they are expensive operations. In this position paper,…

Conventional power system optimization framework is becoming less reliable and efficient due to the stability issues brought by the ever-increasing inverter-interfaced renewable penetration. To ensure system stability during system…

The climate of Earth is susceptible to catastrophes that could threaten the longevity of human civilization. Geoengineering to reduce incoming solar radiation has been suggested as a way to mediate the warming effects of contemporary…

Non-availability of reliable and sustainable electric power is a major problem in the developing world. Renewable energy sources like solar are not very lucrative in the current stage due to various uncertainties like weather, storage, land…

In bike sharing systems the quality of the service to the users strongly depends on the strategy adopted to reposition the bikes. The bike repositioning problem is in general very complex as it involves different interrelated decisions: the…

With the increasing penetration of renewable resources in the distribution grid, the demand for alternatives to grid reinforcement measures rises. One possible solution is the use of battery systems to balance the power flow at crucial…

Components of electrical power systems are susceptible to failures caused by lightning strikes, aging or human errors. These faults can cause equipment damage, affect system reliability, and results in expensive repair costs. As electric…

The specific problem we address in these lectures is the problem of transport and localization in disordered systems, when interference is present, as characteristic for waves, with a focus on realizations with ultracold atoms.

Low-inertia, isolated power systems face the problem of resiliency to power variations. The integration of renewable energy sources, such as wind and solar photovoltaic, pushes the boundaries of this issue further. Higher shares of…

In a wireless network, the spatial location of the transmitters has a large impact on the achievable rate at each user location. The optimal placement of -- for example -- cellular base stations is a difficult non-convex problem, and is…

With the rapid development in wide area networks and low cost, powerful computational resources, grid computing has gained its popularity. With the advent of grid computing, space limitations of conventional distributed systems can be…
