This study examines the feasibility and profitability of utilizing surplus electricity for Bitcoin mining. Surplus electricity refers to the remaining electricity after net metering, which can be repurposed for Bitcoin mining to improve…
In this paper, we propose a theoretical framework for the joint optimization of investment and operation of a microgrid, taking the impact of energy storage, renewable energy integration, and demand response into consideration. We first…
This paper proposes a two-stage optimization framework to evaluate whether cost-optimal electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure translates into effective operation under distribution grid constraints. The proposed approach explicitly…
Mining for Bitcoins is a high-risk high-reward activity. Miners, seeking to reduce their variance and earn steadier rewards, collaborate in pooling strategies where they jointly mine for Bitcoins. Whenever some pool participant is…
In recent years, significant efforts for improving the technical and the economic performance of smart grids have been applied with the presence of different players making decisions in these grids. This paper proposes a bi-level…
We analyze Bitcoin mining from the perspective of a game and propose an optimal mining model that maximizes profits of pools and miners. The model is a two-stage Stackelberg game in which each stage forms a sub-game. In stage I, pools are…
Edge computing has emerged as a key technology to reduce network traffic, improve user experience, and enable various Internet of Things applications. From the perspective of a service provider (SP), how to jointly optimize the service…
Bilevel programs with spatial price equilibrium constraints are strategic models that consider a price competition at the lower level. These models find application in facility location-price models, optimal bidding in power networks, and…
Proof-of-work computation used in cryptocurrencies has witnessed significant growth in the U.S. and many other regions around the world. One of the most significant bottlenecks for the scalable deployment of such computation is its energy…
A global site selection for astronomy was performed with 1 km spatial resolution ($\sim$ 1 Giga pixel in size) using long term and up-to-date datasets to classify the entire terrestrial surface on the Earth. Satellite instruments are used…
In cloud storage, the digital data is stored in logical storage pools, backed by heterogeneous physical storage media and computing infrastructure that are managed by a Cloud Service Provider (CSP). To balance the tradeoff between service…
In this paper, we present methodologies for optimal selection for renewable energy sites under a different set of constraints and objectives. We consider two different models for the site-selection problem - coarse-grained and fine-grained,…
In order to coordinate the scheduling problem between an isolated microgrid (IMG) and electric vehicle battery swapping stations (BSSs) in multi-stakeholder scenarios, a new bi-level optimal scheduling model is proposed for promoting the…
Mobile users' correlated mobility and data consumption patterns often lead to severe cellular network congestion in peak hours and hot spots. This paper presents an optimal design of time and location aware mobile data pricing, which…
Now-a-days, \emph{Online Social Networks} have been predominantly used by commercial houses for viral marketing where the goal is to maximize profit. In this paper, we study the problem of Profit Maximization in the two\mbox{-}phase…
The increasing interconnection of power systems through AC and DC links enables energy storage units to access multiple electricity markets yet most existing arbitrage models remain limited to singlemarket participation This gap restricts…
The increasing penetration of renewable energy necessitates improved power system flexibility, driving the deployment of independent energy storage operators (ESOs). Existing research extensively investigates capacity sizing for price-taker…
Two-phase methods are commonly used to solve bi-objective combinatorial optimization problems. In the first phase, all extreme supported nondominated points are generated through a dichotomic search. This phase also allows the…
The transition to the zero-carbon power system is underway accelerating recently. Hydrogen energy and electric vehicles (EVs) are promising solutions on the supply and demand sides. This paper presents a novel architecture that includes…
This study proposes a bi-level optimization program to represent the electric vehicle (EV) charging infrastructure design and utilization management problem with user-equilibrium (UE) decisions. The upper level aims to minimize total…
