This project aims to create a breakthrough switching dynamics approach and new technology to speed up finding optimal solutions. It will develop a distributed switching dynamics based optimisation scheme for global optimisation problems in industrial big-data environments where timely decision making is required. It will result in a practical technology for industry optimisation problems such as economic energy dispatch in smart grids and optimal charging and discharging tasks in a large network of electric vehicles, helping Australian power industry improve efficiency and security, as well as training the next generation scientists and engineers for Australia in this emerging field.Read moreRead less
Intelligent real time multi-site controller for conserving energy in remote areas and in the resource industry. This project researches the issues in achieving demand response for electricity usage in remote regions of Australia through the use of smart meters and web of things framework to provide ubiquitous monitoring and control of devices, intelligent control systems to dynamically change energy usage patterns and community-based social network architecture. This will lead to several benefit ....Intelligent real time multi-site controller for conserving energy in remote areas and in the resource industry. This project researches the issues in achieving demand response for electricity usage in remote regions of Australia through the use of smart meters and web of things framework to provide ubiquitous monitoring and control of devices, intelligent control systems to dynamically change energy usage patterns and community-based social network architecture. This will lead to several benefits, such as (a) the strengthening of Australian business competitiveness in these regions by reducing energy costs and increasing energy trading, (b) reduction in ecological impact through smarter utilisation of energy and shifting to renewable sources, (c) encourage local generation and distribution of electricity where communities can trade excess energy.Read moreRead less
