Designing Cost Effective Demand Management Contracts using Game Theory
Demand relief from customers can help a utility solve a variety of problems. There exist all sorts of different demand management programs that utilities use. A critical issue is the incentive paid to the customer to participate in demand management programs and provide load relief. The utility has to design cost effective yet attractive demand management contracts. The main goal is to get load...

Traditional centralized approaches to security are difficult to apply to large, distributed, multi-agent systems. Developing a notion of trust that is based on the reputation of agents can provide a softer notion of security that is sufficient for many MAS applications. However, designing a reliable and “trustworthy” reputation mechanism is not a trivial problem. In this paper, we address the i...
متن کاملSmartCast: An Incentive Compatible Consensus Protocol Using Smart Contracts
Motivated by the desire for high-throughput public databases (i.e., “blockchains”), we design incentive compatible protocols that run “off-chain”, but rely on an existing cryptocurrency to implement a reward and/or punishment mechanism. Our protocols are incentive compatible in the sense that behaving honestly is a weak Nash equilibrium, even in spite of potentially malicious behavior from a sm...
متن کاملIncentive-compatible demand-side management for smart grids based on review strategies
Demand-side load management is able to significantly improve the energy efficiency of smart grids. Since the electricity production cost depends on the aggregate energy usage of multiple consumers, an important incentive problem emerges: self-interested consumers want to increase their own utilities by consuming more than the socially optimal amount of energy during peak hours since the increas...
