In the context of smart grids, multi-agent-based applications have garnered a lot of interest recently. Concurrently, integration of IT (information and communication technology) has emerged as a crucial element of the infrastructure of smart grids. This research attempts to give a comprehensive assessment of the technological framework and literature pertaining to the utilization of Multi-Agent Societies (MAS) and the addition of information and communication technologies in electrical power system deployments. In the environment of artificially intelligent grids, agents are thought of as sentient beings that can make decisions and behave in a dynamic and autonomous way by drawing on their innate intellect and past experiences. ICT also makes data and information transmission easier, which is a game-changer in the transition from conventional to smart grids. This article summarizes the multi-agent concept in smart grids and offers a thorough literature study on related topics to elucidate their applications. Additionally, it pays particular attention to Cti standards, particularly IEC 61850, which integrates MAS with ICT. The last section of the paper introduces laboratory framework concepts, which provide insight on the actual use of IEC 61850.

Quantum random number generators have attracted the research community for providing secure communication. This paper presents a novel Quantum LFSR, designed using the novel construction of D-Flip-Flop (DFF) and XOR gates in QCA. The suggested Quantum LFSR comprises 216 cells with an area of 0.23μm2 and the total power dissipation is 0.31442 eV, 0.41729 eV, and 0.54389 eVat different standard tunnelling energy levels. The power parameters are analysed using QCA Pro, and the calculated outcomes show that the Quantum LFSR has low power consumption and reduced footprint compared to conventional designs.

Quantum protocols including quantum key distribution and blind quantum computing often require the preparation of quantum states of known dimensions. Here, we show that, rather surprisingly, hidden multidimensional modulation is often performed by practical devices. This violates the dimensional assumption in quantum protocols, thus creating side channels and security loopholes. Our work has important impacts on the security of quantum cryptographic protocols.

Agent-based model predictive control (AMPC) has recently been proposed for vehicle systems with various controllers, such as differential braking and torque vectoring, where controllers are regarded as distributed agents contributing to the same objective. However, this scheme is challenging in handling multiple conflicting objectives with coupled agents. A common approach for such tasks is the integrated MPC, where all objectives and agents are stacked together in one optimization. Nevertheless, as more agents and objectives are involved, the integrated MPC will face challenges like computational burdens and maintenance difficulties in practice. To this end, this paper proposes a learning multi-objective AMPC that can improve design flexibility and computing efficiency. First, under the assumption of information exchange, a multi-objective AMPC tailored from the alternating direction method of multipliers (ADMM) is proposed to decouple the system and achieve the same performance as the integrated scheme iteratively. Second, a learning-based method for initializing iterations is proposed to accelerate convergence. In addition, a data management method is proposed for real-time efficiency, and an authentication module is designed for learning reliability. We compare the proposed scheme against the integrated scheme via a combined path-tracking simulation for autonomous vehicles with various controllers. The proposed scheme achieves the same control performance as the integrated one while reducing the computational time by 43.5 %. Furthermore, the learning-based method saves 88.6% more computational time than without learning, making it suitable for real-time implementation.

In this work, we propose a centralized control method based on nonlinear model predictive control to let multiple UAVs manipulate the full pose of an object via cables. At the best of the authors knowledge this is the first method that takes into account the full nonlinear model of the load-UAV system, and ensures all the feasibility constraints concerning the UAV maximumum and minimum thrusts, the collision avoidance between the UAVs, cables and load, and the tautness and maximum tension of the cables. By taking into account the above factors, the proposed control algorithm can fully exploit the performance of UAVs and facilitate the speed of operation. Simulations are conducted to validate the algorithm to achieve fast and safe manipulation of the pose of a rigid-body payload using multiple UAVs. We demonstrate that the computational time of the proposed method is sufficiently small (<100 ms) for UAV teams composed by up to 10 units, which makes it suitable for a huge variety of future industrial applications, such as autonomous building construction and heavy-load transportation.
