Scalable Bias-Resistant Distributed Randomness

Bryan Alexander Ford, Philipp Svetolik Jovanovic, Linus Gasser, Eleftherios Kokoris Kogias, Nicolas Gailly, Ismail Khoffi

Bias-resistant public randomness is a critical component in many (distributed) protocols. Existing solutions do not scale to hundreds or thousands of participants, as is needed in many decentralized systems. We propose two large-scale distributed protocols ...

UnLynx: A Decentralized System for Privacy-Conscious Data Sharing

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Bryan Alexander Ford, Jean Louis Raisaro, Zhicong Huang, Joao André Gomes de Sá e Sousa, David Jules Froelicher, Christian Vincent Mouchet, Patricia Egger

Current solutions for privacy-preserving data sharing among multiple parties either depend on a centralized authority that must be trusted and provides only weakest-link security (e.g., the entity that manages private/secret cryptographic keys), or leverag ...

Centralized and Decentralized Electricity Markets: Assessment of Operational and Economic Aspects

Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Farzaneh Abbaspourtorbati

This paper presents the comparison of decentralized and centralized market settings in terms of economic efficiencies, particularly price signals, and operating aspects. The decentralized dispatch consists of an energy auction separated from a contingency ...

Advanced Control of Active Distribution Networks Integrating Dispersed Energy Storage Systems

Maryam Bahramipanah

Due to the increased penetration of Distributed Generations (DGs) in distribution networks, the system control and operation may become quite different from the case of traditional network. Most DGs can only provide intermittent power to the Active Distrib ...

Information Theoretic Caching: The Multi-User Case

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang, Sung Hoon Lim

In this paper, we present information theoretic inner and outer bounds on the fundamental tradeoff between cache memory size and update rate in a multi-user cache network. Each user is assumed to have individual caches, while upon users’ requests, an updat ...

Optimization of low-head hydropower recovery in water supply networks

Irene Almeida Samora

Small scale hydropower is emerging as a decentralized source to satisfy local demand for electricity. The interest in micro-hydropower, which refers to installed power below 100 kW, is increasing since this is a solution with low environmental impact. Wate ...

Network clustering for voltage control in active distribution network including energy storage systems

Mario Paolone, Sidi-Rachid Cherkaoui, Mostafa Nick, Maryam Bahramipanah

This paper presents a network partitioning strategy for the optimal voltage control of Active Distribution Networks (ADNs) by means of Dispersed Energy Storage Systems (DESSs). The proposed partitioning is based on the concept of voltage sensitivity coeffi ...
