Abstract The widespread penetration of distributed energy sources and the use of load response programs, especially in a microgrid, have caused many power system issues, such as control and operation of these networks, to be affected. The control and operation of many small-distributed generation units with different performance characteristics create another challenge for the safe and efficient operation of the microgrid. In this paper, the optimum operation of distributed generation resources and heat and power storage in a microgrid, was performed based on real-time pricing through the proposed gray wolf optimization (GWO) algorithm to reduce the energy supply cost with the… More >

Abstract Despite the advances mobile devices have endured, they still remain resource-restricted computing devices, so there is a need for a technology that supports these devices. An emerging technology that supports such resource-constrained devices is called fog computing. End devices can offload the task to close-by fog nodes to improve the quality of service and experience. Since computation offloading is a multiobjective problem, we need to consider many factors before taking offloading decisions, such as task length, remaining battery power, latency, communication cost, etc. This study uses the multiobjective grey wolf optimization (MOGWO) technique for optimizing offloading decisions. This is the… More >

Abstract In the recent era, the significance of Renewable Energy (RE) sources in the process of power generation has attained considerable attention as it provides multiple beneficial impacts without harming the environment. The Photovoltaic (PV) and Doubly-Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) fed wind turbine are employed as hybrid power sources in this study. The output voltages of these sources are independently controlled by separate controllers in an optimal manner for effectively maximizing the overall performance of the system. The Reboost Luo converter is introduced in this work to maximize the output voltage of PV in an efficient manner whereas the Grey Wolf… More >
