DESCRIPTION:Seminar by Dr. Nurcin Celik\, Professor\, The University of Mia
 mi\nAbstract: Energy security and resilience are critical to our daily act
 ivities\, yet the current electricity systems\nare vulnerable and fragile 
 against natural or human-made hazards and disasters as well as other abnor
 malities\nin the system. Motivated by these challenges\, this project inve
 stigates a new dynamic data driven monitoring\nand control framework for s
 mart energy systems with a focus on the critical infrastructures of microg
 rids and\ntheir connection to the main power grid as it is becoming more a
 nd more vital to realize economic security and\nreliability. However\, rea
 l-time monitoring and inferencing in a large-scale system such as a power 
 system under\nlimited computational resources is very challenging due to t
 he excessive number of parameters and massive\ndata loads involved. New an
 d effective methodologies that are capable of dealing with massive\, highl
 y\ncomplex\, and rapid moving data are needed to make useful discoveries a
 nd achieve punctual control over\nthese networks. Addressing this need\, w
 e focused our research efforts on data driven knowledge discovery by\nreal
 -time inferencing. To this end\, the essentials of the developed decision 
 making framework include 1) new\nand advanced optimization models and algo
 rithms for operation and control including a comprehensive\noptimization m
 odel and a decomposition algorithm for the operation of off-grid AC microg
 rids\, 2) multi-scale\nadaptive simulation models (component level and bat
 tery load simulation models operating at high- and lowfidelities)\, and 3)
  instrumentation methods for decision making in a smart grid network inclu
 ding a demand\nresponse model. The capabilities and performance of the inv
 estigated framework were initially tested on IEEE9\, IEEE-30\, and IEEE-11
 8 test systems. Next\, we will work on tractable robust optimization model
 s for demand\nresponse solutions\, and stochastic optimization models for 
 operation re-scheduling and topology reconfiguration problems.\nBio: NURCI
