Bilevel optimization based transmission expansion planning considering phase shifting transformer

In this paper, the phase shifting transformer (PST) is introduced in the Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP) problem considering significant wind power integration. The proposed planning model is formulated as a bilevel program which seeks to …

Deadline Scheduling as Restless Bandits

The problem of stochastic deadline scheduling is considered. A constrained Markov decision process model is introduced in which jobs arrive randomly at a service center with stochastic job sizes, rewards, and completion deadlines. The service …

Deadline scheduling as restless bandits

The problem of stochastic deadline scheduling is considered. A constrained Markov decision process model is introduced in which jobs arrive randomly at a service center with stochastic job sizes, rewards, and completion deadlines. The service …

Demand response via large scale charging of electric vehicles

The problem of centralized scheduling of large scale charging of electric vehicles (EVs) with demand response options is considered. A stochastic dynamic programming model is introduced in which the EV charging service provider faces stochastic …

Deadline Scheduling

Scheduling of jobs with deadlines, such as EV charging, internet streaming, and communications.

iEMS

An Intellegent energy management system that controls the admittance and scheduling of EV charging.

Large scale charging of electric vehicles: A multi-armed bandit approach

A sequential game model is proposed to analyze a two-sided market and indirect network effects involving electrical vehicles (EV) and electric vehicle charging stations (EVCS). The investor maximizes his profit by choosing a set of locations to build …
