This correspondence paper studies a network integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) system that unifies the interference channel for distributed radar sensing. In this system, set of ISAC transmitters send individual messages to their respective users (CUs), at same time cooperate with multiple receivers estimate location one target. We exploit coordinated power control among minimize total...

This paper presents a unified approach to data center energy management based on a modeling framework that characterizes the influence of key decision variables on computational performance, thermal generation, and power consumption. Temperature dynamics are modeled by a network of interconnected components reflecting the spatial distribution of servers, computer room air conditioning (CRAC) un...

this paper presents a formulation of unit commitment for thermal units integrated with wind and solar energy systems and electrical vehicles with emphasizing on mixed integer nonlinear programming (minlp). the renewable energy resources are included in this model due to their low electricity cost and positive effect on environment. as well as, coordinated charging strategy of electrical vehicle...
