The 3rd Workshop on Communications and Control for Smart Energy Systems (CCSES)
The emerging smart energy
system is expected to be a large-scale cyber-physical system that
can improve the efficiency, reliability, and robustness of power and
energy grids by integrating advanced techniques from power systems,
control, communications, signal processing, and networking. For
instance, advanced communications and networking technologies are
expected to play a vital role in the future smart grid
infrastructures by supporting two-way energy and information flow
and enabling more efficient monitoring, control, and optimization of
different grid functionalities and smart power devices. The
efficient design of the forthcoming smart grid system faces a
plethora of challenges at different levels ranging from
communications and networking to control and power systems. In
addition, the deployment of the smart grid will lead to several new
multi-disciplinary research opportunities and potentials for
collaborations with industries and various international smart grid
standardization bodies.
Building on the success of its
2012 and 2013 versions, the Workshop on Communications and
Control for Smart Energy Systems is intended to provide a forum
for discussion on all these most recent developments and bring
together industry and academia, engineers and researchers. The
workshop will be held in conjunction with the IEEE INFOCOM 2014
conference (http://www.ieee-infocom.org/)
and it provides a unique occasion for the community to meet and
share ideas and visions.
