Computer Engineering Seminar
Fri, Nov 06, 2015 @ 10:30 AM - 11:30 AM
Ming Hsieh Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering
Conferences, Lectures, & Seminars
Speaker: Dr. Yusuke Sakumoto and Dr. Ittetsu Taniguchi, Osaka University
Talk Title: System Level Design Approach of Autonomous Decentralized Energy Network
Abstract: Effective utilization of the renewable energy is a big motivation for the renovation of the conventional power systems. This seminar focuses on the design of autonomous decentralized energy network supporting energy interchanges among the nodes, and fundamental mechanisms to support effective energy interchanges. This seminar has two talks:
In the first talk, Prof. Taniguchi explains the project overview, and introduces the experimental study of DC microgrid systems.
In the second talk, Prof. Sakumoto explains an autonomous decentralized mechanism (ADM) for energy interchange in large-scale microgrids. Each node using this ADM autonomously performs energy interchange to adjacent nodes to realize energy supply appropriately for energy demand. He also explains an advanced method of his ADM toward resilient microgrids, and shows simulation experiment considering energy shortage and emergency situations.
Biography: Yusuke Sakumoto received M.E. and Ph.D. degrees in the Information and Computer Sciences from Osaka University in 2008 and 2010, respectively. He is currently an assistant professor at Graduate School of System Design, Tokyo Metropolitan University, Japan. His research interests are microgrid, communication network, and social network.
Ittetsu Taniguchi received M.E. and Ph.D. degrees in the Information and Computer Sciences from Osaka University in 2006 and 2009, respectively. He is currently a lecturer at Graduate School of Science and Technology, Ritsumeikan University, Japan.
From 2007 till 2008, he was a Ph.D. researcher at IMEC, Belgium.
His research interests are system level design methodology of CPS, and combinatorial optimization problems.
