TLDR
The security, agility, and robustness/survivability of a large-scale power delivery infrastructure that faces new threats and unanticipated conditions is presented.Abstract:
In this article, we present the security, agility, and robustness/survivability of a large-scale power delivery infrastructure that faces new threats and unanticipated conditions. By way of background, we present a brief overview of the past work on the challenges faced in online parameter estimation and real-time adaptive control of a damaged F-15 aircraft. This work, in part, provided the inspiration and laid the foundation in the 1990s for the flight testing of a fast parameter estimation/modeling and reconfigurable aircraft control system that allowed the F-15 to become self-healing in the face of damaged equipment.read more

The gamified grid: Possibilities for utilising game-based motivational psychology to empower the Smart Social Grid
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate human motivational psychology and the use of gamification to leverage motivation in the context of the Smart Social Grid, arguing that a gamified system can provide these by enabling self-presentation and social interaction; the autonomous completion of tasks that conserve electrical energy; and a platform for energy education and discourse.

Model predictive control of car storage battery in HEMS considered car traveling
Takuma Yamaguchi,M. Sumiya,Shinkichi Inagaki,Tatsuya Suzuki,Akira Ito,Mitsuru Fujita,J. Kanamori +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a Home Energy Management System (HEMS) using the battery of an electric vehicle and a plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHV) is presented. And the proposed method can plan and control charging and discharging of the car's battery in order to minimize the electricity cost at home for one day.

Plug in to grid computing
TL;DR: The ability of grid-enabled systems to interact autonomously is vital for small generators where manned operation is likely to be viable and the ability to monitor the output of embedded generators to be monitored and controlled is vital.
