The increasing share of distributed energy resources poses a challenge to the distribution network operator (DNO) to maintain the current availability of the system while limiting the investment costs. Related to this, there is a clear trend in DNOs trying to better monitor their grid by installing a distribution management system (DMS). This DMS enables the DNOs to remotely switch their networ...

Due to the dynamic topology, self-configuration and decentralized nature of Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), it provides many benefits in wireless networks and is easy to deploy. But the transmission of data over ad hoc networks has elevated many technical issues for successful routing. Congestion is one of the important issues which cause performance degradation of a network, due to long delay a...

The power system restructuring has introduced competitiveness among different market players in electricity market and as a result transmission lines have to operate near to their thermal limits. System operators have a challenge to ensure reliable and secure transmission of power under these conditions. In this paper a rescheduling based congestion management solution is proposed for hybrid el...

We investigate issues of complexity related to congestion games. In particular, we provide a full classification of complexity results for the problem of finding a minimum cost solution to a congestion game, under the model of Rosenthal. We consider both network and general congestion games, and we examine several variants of the problem concerning the structure of the game and the properties o...

This paper studies strategic decentralization in binary choice composite network congestion games. A player decentralizes if she lets some autonomous agents to decide respectively how to send different parts of her stock from the origin to the destination. This paper shows that, with convex, strictly increasing and differentiable arc cost functions, an atomic splittable player always has an opt...

The deregulation of power system has created an environment of competitiveness among different market players and the transmission lines are forced to operate near to their thermal or stability limits. It is a challenge with System Operators (SO) to ensure a secure and reliable transmission of power under these conditions. This paper proposes a rescheduling based congestion management strategy ...

This paper studies some of the properties and fundamentals of static models of road traffic congestion that have triggered much debate in the literature. The first part of the paper focuses in particular on the difficulties arising with the backward-bending cost curve in the context of ‘continuous congestion’. The relevance of the backward-bending segment of the cost curve for the static analys...
