Hourly Demand Response in Day-ahead Scheduling for Managing the Variability of Renewable Energy
This paper proposes a stochastic optimization model for the day-ahead scheduling in power systems, which incorporates the hourly demand response (DR) for managing the variability of renewable energy sources (RES). DR considers physical and operating constraints of the hourly demand for economic and reliability responses. The proposed stochastic day-ahead scheduling algorithm considers random ou...
متن کاملSame-day discharge after percutaneous coronary intervention.
It is currently common practice for patients treated with percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for stable coronary artery disease (CAD) to remain under observation in hospital until the following day. Sameday discharge following uncomplicated procedures was described already in 1995 (1), when other types of anticoagulants were used than those available today. A low prevalence of serious com...
متن کاملA multi-method intervention to reduce no-shows in an urban residency clinic.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Missed appointments can create financial, capacity, and continuity issues in primary care. An urban family medicine residency teaching clinic with a large culturally diverse population of low-income patients struggled for decades with a persistent no-show rate of 15%--17% despite multiple attempts to remind patients or otherwise address the problem. This study sought t...
متن کاملFlexible Strategies for Coping with Rainfall Variability: Seasonal Adjustments in Cropped Area in the Ganges Basin
One of the main manifestations of climate change will be increased rainfall variability. How to deal with this in agriculture will be a major societal challenge. In this paper we explore flexibility in land use, through deliberate seasonal adjustments in cropped area, as a specific strategy for coping with rainfall variability. Such adjustments are not incorporated in hydro-meteorological crop ...
متن کاملAppointment Scheduling Under Patient No-Shows and Service Interruptions
We consider an appointment-based service system (for example, an outpatient clinic) for which appointments need to be scheduled before the service session starts. Patients with scheduled appointments may or may not show-up for their appointments. The service of scheduled patients can be interrupted by emergency requests that have a higher priority. We develop a framework which can be utilized i...
