A Technical Approach to the Energy Blockchain in Microgrids
Maria Luisa Di Silvestre,Pierluigi Gallo,Mariano Giuseppe Ippolito,Eleonora Riva Sanseverino,Gaetano Zizzo +4 more
TL;DR: In this article, a real-time attribution of power losses to each transaction involving one generator and one load node is done by defining some suitable indices, and the experimental section of the paper considers a medium voltage microgrid and two different operational scenarios.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Wireless MAC processors: Programming MAC protocols on commodity Hardware
Ilenia Tinnirello,Giuseppe Bianchi,Pierluigi Gallo,Domenico Garlisi,Fabrizio Giuliano,Francesco Gringoli +5 more
TL;DR: This paper experimentally proves the feasibility of the wireless MAC processor concept over ultra-cheap commodity WLAN hardware cards by reflash the firmware of the commercial Broadcom AirForce54G off-the-shelf chipset, replacing its 802.11 WLAN MAC protocol implementation with the proposed extended state machine execution engine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Blockchain for power systems: Current trends and future applications
Maria Luisa Di Silvestre,Pierluigi Gallo,Josep M. Guerrero,Rossano Musca,Eleonora Riva Sanseverino,Giuseppe Sciumè,Juan C. Vasquez,Gaetano Zizzo +7 more
TL;DR: A wide perspective is proposed about the application of the blockchain technology in the power systems area, clarifying some technical aspects concerning this promising technology, the features and applications developed so far, while focusing on the future of innovative applications in the electrical energy sector.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ancillary Services in the Energy Blockchain for Microgrids
Maria Luisa Di Silvestre,Pierluigi Gallo,Mariano Giuseppe Ippolito,Rossano Musca,Eleonora Riva Sanseverino,Quynh T. Tran,Gaetano Zizzo +6 more
TL;DR: A method for remuneration of reactive power provision, integrated into the blockchain, allows evaluating the contribution to voltage regulation and increases the transparency and cost traceability in the transactions.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
MAClets: active MAC protocols over hard-coded devices
Giuseppe Bianchi,Pierluigi Gallo,Domenico Garlisi,Fabrizio Giuliano,Francesco Gringoli,Ilenia Tinnirello +5 more
TL;DR: This work introduces MAClets, software programs uploaded and executed on-demand over wireless cards, and devised to change the card's real-time medium access control operation, and envision a new architecture for wireless cards based on a protocol interpreter and a powerful API.
