ENERGY INFORMATICS

This seminar is about Energy Informatics. It is not about Green IT.

It is about the application and adaption of the large body of achievements in Informatics for addressing current and future challenges in the Energy Domain.

Organisatorial details were discussed at the initial meeting on

Wed, Oct 20, 2010 at 09:41 (s.t.) in room 528 (Bldg. E1 3).

If you would like to participate in this seminar, please register for it via the CMS. An explanation how to do that is here (requires Adobe Flash Player).

	Short-term load forecasting (on the order of days)
	Medium-term load forecasting (on the order of months)
	Power generation characteristics
	Economics of energy
	Power grid monitoring and control
	Power grid reliability
	Power grid efficiency (energy loss minimization)

	Mixed-Integer Programming
	Nonlinear Optimization
	Constraint Solving
	Simulation
	Bayesian Statistics
	Hidden State Estimation
	Multi-Player Games
	Priced and Hybrid Model Analysis

The current plan is to split the seminar in two phases

a bi-weekly reading group during the semester

and a presentation phase end of February 2011

In the first phase we will have an overview of the general topic, and then dive into 7 more concrete areas.

We will discuss these areas jointly in these meetings, based on information and backgroud material studied beforehand individually.

These discussions will be moderated by two students per area.

In the second phase each participant will give a formal presentation of around 45 min about an algorithmic problem and solution from his area.

This will happen in the form of a block event in late February or early March.
