We consider a two-stage generation scheduling problem comprising forward dispatch and real-time re-dispatch. The former must be conducted facing an uncertain net demand that includes non-dispatchable electricity consumption renewable power generation. latter copes with the plausible deviations respect to schedule by making use of balancing during actual operation system. Standard industry pract...

Instruction scheduling is a crucial phase in a compiler for very long instruction word (VLIW) processors. This paper describes the instruction scheduler of the second generation compiler for the TriMedia VLIW mediaprocessor family as well as related compiler issues to increase the size of a scheduling unit. The paper discusses the guarded decision tree scheduling unit, how guarded decision tree...

Abstract—A case study of the generation scheduling optimization of the multi-hydroplants on the Yuan River Basin in China is reported in this paper. Concerning the uncertainty of the inflows, the long/mid-term generation scheduling (LMTGS) problem is solved by a stochastic model in which the inflows are considered as stochastic variables. For the short-term generation scheduling (STGS) problem,...

This paper considers a single-machine scheduling problem with sequence-dependent setup times and energy-generation storage systems. Each job requires to be processed on the machine, both processing of require job-dependent amounts energy. The energy consumed by machine can bought from an Electric Power Company (EPC) or generated own Distributed Energy Resource (DER), such as solar photovoltaic ...

This paper presents a study of the influence of the accuracy of hourly load forecasting on the energy planning and operation of electric generation utilities. First, a k Nearest Neighbours (kNN) classification technique is proposed for hourly load forecasting. Then, obtained prediction errors are compared with those obtained results by using a M5’. Second, the obtained kNN-based load forecast i...

Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the next generation wireless communication network with fast connectivity and high mobility to support variety of applications like video conferencing, video streaming, file transfer, web browsing etc. LTE system effectively utilizes the resources by dynamically scheduling the users in both frequency and time domain. However, scheduling algorithms are not defined in...
