Appliance scheduling on the user’s defined preferences plays a pivotal role in smart home energy management systems. In this context, energy management controllers are largely used to satisfy the users’ demand preferences within their financial budget constraints. This work proposes a robust technique based on demand-side energy management for effi...

Smart grid is an emerging technology which is considered as an ultimate solution to meet the increasing power demand challenges. Modern communication technologies has enabled the successful implementation of smart grid, which aims at provision of demand side management mechanisms, such as demand response. In this paper, we propose residential load...

Residential buildings consume significant energy and play a key role in increasing demand all over the world. The major sources of energy consumption in buildings are heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system, lighting and plug loads. The concerns have been raised over balancing the demand and supply, occupants comfort and rapid deple...

In a smart grid, several optimization techniques have been developed to schedule load in the residential area. Most of these techniques aim at minimizing the energy consumption cost and the comfort of electricity consumer. Conversely, maintaining a balance between two conflicting objectives: energy consumption cost and user comfort is still a chall...

In smart grid, several optimization techniques are developed for residential load scheduling purpose. Most of these conventional techniques of demand side management aim at minimizing the energy consumption cost. Maintaining a balance between two conflicting objectives: energy consumption cost and user comfort is still a challenging task to achieve...

Smart grid faces a number of challenges to efficiently and effectively transmit power from generation to end users. So, a robust monitoring mechanism is essential to monitor the status of transmission lines and towers. Many state-of-the-art techniques are present in literature , to timely and precisely locate the problem. In this paper, we present...
