Presence of distributed energy resources (DERs) in the case of proper planning can help to improve the technical and economic parameters of the system in distribution networks. In recent years, several algorithms and indices for optimal distributed generation planning with multiple objectives have been presented. In this paper, optimal placement and sizing of distributed generation sources with...

In reconfigurable modular robotics, when robot modules joins to form a robotic organism, they create a distributed processing environment in a unified system. This research builds on the efficient use of these distributed processing resources and presents the manner these resources can be utilised to implement distributed mosaic formation and object detection within the organism. The generation...

This paper describes a framework to support the electricity distribution system operator (DSO) in identifying the appropriate control strategy in a system due to the stochastic nature of the integrated intermittent distributed generation. A distributed optimization and control algorithm is applied in order to determine the look-ahead allocation of distributed resources for risk mitigation, as w...

Grid computing, emerging as a new paradigm for next-generation computing, enables the sharing, selection, and aggregation of geographically distributed heterogeneous resources for solving large-scale problems in science, engineering, and commerce. The resources in the Grid are heterogeneous and geographically distributed. The paper demonstrates the capability of economicbased systems for wide-a...
