There are numerous opportunities and challenges in integrating multiple energy sources, for example, electrical, heat, electrified transportation. The operation of multi-energy sources needs to be coordinated optimized achieve maximum benefits reliability. To address the thermal, transportation electrification demands a sustainable environmentally friendly microgrid, this paper presents mixed i...

In the faulty-memory RAM model, the content of memory cells can get corrupted at any time during the execution of an algorithm, and a constant number of uncorruptible registers are available. A resilient data structure in this model works correctly on the set of uncorrupted values. In this paper we introduce a resilient priority queue. The deletemin operation of a resilient priority queue retur...

One of complementary value propositions of microgrids is to improve power system resiliency via local supply of loads and curtailment reduction. This subject is investigated in this paper by proposing a resiliency-oriented microgrid optimal scheduling model. The proposed model aims at minimizing the microgrid load curtailment by efficiently scheduling available resources when supply of power fr...

in this paper, multi-microgrids (mmg) are considered as future smart distribution grids, in which small scale energy resources (sser) are main power generation units with small scales. optimal operation of microgrids in defined intervals is carried out to achieve economic conditions in distribution systems. the defined operating problem is optimized using a heuristic algorithm considering uncer...

Resilient operation of microgrid is an important concept in modern power system. Its goal is to anticipate and limit the risks, and provide appropriate and continuous services under changing conditions. There are many factors that cause the operation mode of micogrid changes between island and grid-connected modes. On the other hand, nowadays, electric vehicles (EVs) are desirable energy storag...

Computing at the exascale level is expected to be affected by a significantly higher rate of faults, due to increased component counts as well as power considerations. Therefore, current day numerical algorithms need to be reexamined as to determine if they are fault resilient, and which critical operations need to be safeguarded in order to obtain performance that is close to the ideal fault-f...

We investigate the problem of computing in the presence of faults that may arbitrarily (i.e., adversarially) corrupt memory locations. In the faulty memory model, any memory cell can get corrupted at any time, and corrupted cells cannot be distinguished from uncorrupted ones. An upper bound δ on the number of corruptions and O(1) reliable memory cells are provided. In this model, we focus on th...

A weak pseudorandom function (wPRF) is a pseudorandom functions with a relaxed security requirement, where one only requires the output to be pseudorandom when queried on random (and not adversarially chosen) inputs. We show that unlike standard PRFs, wPRFs are secure against memory attacks, that is they remain secure even if a bounded amount of information about the secret key is leaked to the...

The resiliency of power systems can be enhanced during emergency situations by using microgrids, due to their capability to supply local loads. However, precise prediction of disturbance events is very difficult rather the occurrence probability can be expressed as, high, medium, or low, etc. Therefore, a fuzzy logic-based battery energy storage system (BESS) operation controller is proposed in...
