The growing incorporation of renewable energy sources, electric vehicles, and energy storage systems within modern power systems has amplified the need for efficient energy management frameworks. This paper presents a novel optimization approach for clustering prosumers into energy community groups to enhance self-sufficiency, operational efficiency, and economic performance. The proposed framework incorporates an initial number of prosumers with energy assets, including photovoltaic systems, storage, and electric vehicles, aiming to form energy communities while addressing the distribution grid's technical and physical constraints. The optimization problem is formulated as a Mixed-Integer Nonlinear programming model, capturing the nonlinear relationships and discrete decision variables involved in prosumer clustering, complying with grid operational limits, and minimizing power losses within the distribution network. The optimization outcomes demonstrate significant improvements in energy utilization, reducing grid dependency and cost savings for prosumers, enabling greater economic and technical benefits. The results indicate a 43.4 percent reduction in the energy bills of prosumers following their participation in the energy community. This study provides policymakers and grid operators a tool to cluster prosumers by considering technical and regulatory constraints.

The advancements in technology and widespread internet access have revolutionized the way data collection and polling are conducted. Traditional polling methods are often hampered by significant challenges, including high operational costs, limited ability to reach a broad audience, reliance on a large workforce, and the extensive time required for data analysis. These limitations have led to inefficiencies and reduced the effectiveness of traditional approaches. In this paper, we introduce a platform designed to automate the creation of online polls, utilizing a model-driven approach and no-code development platform. This system streamlines the polling process by allowing users to easily design and deploy polls without extensive programming knowledge. The platform also includes built-in functionalities to automatically generate charts and visualizations for data analysis, reducing the need for manual data processing. By simplifying these processes, the platform makes advanced polling tools accessible to non-experts, enabling quicker, more efficient data collection and analysis in a variety of contexts.

Multi-robot systems equipped with wireless communication devices can outperform single-robot platforms through cooperation. However, such wireless network face challenges such as the unreliable wireless channels, physical obstacles, uneven terrains, and potential malicious attacks. Studying the interplay between the physical and network aspects of these systems proves challenging because existing physics simulators often lack realistic communication models, while network simulators typically use over-simplified physics and mobility models. To address this gap, we introduce DANCERS, a novel co-simulation platform providing synchronization and information exchange between any robotic and any network simulator. DANCERS is evaluated in terms of computational performance, overhead and correctness, and its capabilities are demonstrated through a multi-robot use case.

We present a method for systematically evaluating the correctness and robustness of instruction-tuned large language models (LLMs) for code generation via a new benchmark, Turbulence. Turbulence consists of a large set of natural language question templates, each of which is a programming problem, parameterised so that it can be asked in many different forms. Each question template has an associated test oracle that judges whether a code solution returned by an LLM is correct. Thus, from a single question template, it is possible to ask an LLM a neighbourhood of very similar programming questions, and assess the correctness of the result returned for each question. This allows gaps in an LLM's code generation abilities to be identified, including anomalies where the LLM correctly solves almost all questions in a neighbourhood but fails for particular parameter instantiations. We present experiments against five LLMs from OpenAI, Cohere and Meta, each at two temperature configurations. Our findings show that, across the board, Turbulence is able to reveal gaps in LLM reasoning ability. This goes beyond merely highlighting that LLMs sometimes produce wrong code (which is no surprise): by systematically identifying cases where LLMs are able to solve some problems in a neighbourhood but do not manage to generalise to solve the whole neighbourhood, our method is effective at highlighting robustness issues. We present data and examples that shed light on the kinds of mistakes that LLMs make when they return incorrect code results.

Controllers act as a bridge between the operator and the system, allowing the operator to communicate with the system as if it were a human. In other words, the controller is like the thinking brain of an industrial process. A controller communicates all the commands that an expert wants to apply to the system to follow its standard flow process and ultimately achieve the desired response. When industrial processes are left alone and without a controller in the control loop, they typically do not give satisfactory responses in terms of transient or steady-state characteristics. Therefore, the selection and programming of an appropriate controller is one of the most important steps in an industrial process. One of the most widely used and well-known controllers is the PID controller, whose gains are often determined experimentally or through trial and error. However, finding the optimal gains is always a challenge. In this study, for the first time, the optimal gains of the PID controller are determined using Lion Optimization Algorithm (LOA). This research has introduced a systematic and efficient approach to achieving optimal control of mechatronic systems.

A variety of nonlinear optimization techniques have been used for measuring effectiveness of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS). The variability of these optimization techniques resulted in several different approaches for different systems that depended on the IDS selection. There is a tremendous increase in the number of nature-inspired optimization techniques introduced in recent years and the associated applications in IDS appear recently after their introductions. Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) optimization is one of the optimization techniques that attracted many researchers, and a comprehensive review of ABC is needed. While there are few other reviews of ABC algorithms in the literature, the combination of ABC with other optimization techniques and improvement opportunities with these optimization techniques are not covered in these articles. Therefore, in this work, an extensive review of the ABC optimization techniques introduced for IDS analysis as well as the most recent techniques that are applied to IDS in combination with ABC will be covered. New research areas to be explored are recommended as a part of the conclusions and future works. This work demonstrates a clear overview of the IDS and nonlinear optimization applications along with the optimization applications and directions followed by the research community.

As the demand for deep neural network (DNN) inference on edge platforms grows, deploying compute-intensive DNNs on resource-constrained devices remains challenging. This paper proposes a novel sparse convolution acceleration processor, RV-ESMC, based on RISC-V architecture, with custom instructions to enable efficient edge DNN inference. RV-ESMC provides flexibility by supporting inline assembly calls in C programming. Experimental results indicate that RV-ESMC can reduce execution time by over 70% in DNNs with convolution operations compared to conventional instruction sets. The functionality of RV-ESMC is validated on an FPGA platform and its performance is comprehensively evaluated based on a 55nm CMOS process. The results show that RV-ESMC can achieve a peak energy efficiency of 675 GOPS/W.

A crop planting strategy optimization model combining Monte Carlo simulation and simulated annealing algorithm is proposed in the study, aiming to effectively optimize the planting strategy to cope with the complex production environment under uncertain conditions. First, based on a variety of constraints, this paper analyzes in depth the uncertainties involved in the planting process, such as the dynamic changes of various cash crop indicators in the market, by establishing an optimization model with the objective of maximizing benefits. Then, in order to cope with these uncertainties, the original optimization model was dynamically adjusted using Monte Carlo simulation and combined with the simulated annealing algorithm for global optimization calculation. Ultimately, the optimal planting scheme between 2024 and 2030 was determined by this optimization model. This study not only can effectively deal with the complex market dynamics, but also provides a scientific basis for the optimization of planting strategies.

Wind energy's role in the global electric grid is set to expand significantly. New York State alone anticipates offshore wind farms (WFs) contributing 9GW by 2035. Integration of energy storage emerges as crucial for this advancement. In this study, we focus on a WF paired with a captive battery energy storage system (BESS). We aim to ascertain the power capacity credit for a BESS with specified nameplate energy (MWh) and power capacity (MW). Unlike prior methods rooted in reliability theory, we define a power alignment function, which leads to a straightforward definition of capacity and incremental capacity for the BESS. We develop a solution method based on a linear programming formulation. Our analysis utilizes wind data, collected by NYSERDA off Long Island's coast and load demand data from NYISO. Additionally, we present theoretical insights into BESS sizing and a key time-series property influencing BESS capacity, aiding in simulating wind and demand for estimating BESS energy requirements.
