traditional data push: from sensors to people (rich) sensing networking & computation people
(rich) sensing networking & computation people CPS/DDDAS: closed-loop “pull”; user driven
data presentation computers, storage computation resource analysis scheduling, optimization, control heat, humidity sensors control: VM storage, migration, cooling, energy consumption, scheduling CPS: data centers (monitoring and control) power systems cooling systems
energy consumers: smart buildings, Home, cars, appliances computation resource analysis, prediction, scheduling, optimization, control: supply/demand balance, power routing, energy prediction/pricing signals, energy market info, energy producers: power plants, solar& wind farms CPS: Smart Grid (next-gen electricity systems) energy consumers: smart buildings, Home, cars, appliances energy producers: power plants, solar& wind farms

Common themes: • rich sensors: on beyond “motes” • closed loop, real time control computation and control sensing networking people • complex multifunctional systems: need for architecture • client-server, P2P, data-driven-sense-and-response • critical infrastructure: on beyond “best effort”

Smart Grid: Physical Infrastructure operations distributed generation substations transmission substations distribution generation home business Grid power distribution network industry
Smart Grid: power flows FACTS: • control line impedance:activelyroute power • Internet-like “traffic engineering: control amount of flow going over each line
Smart Grid: information, control everywhere data, real-time control PMUs: measure substation voltage, current msecs generation: distributed sources demandreponse, pricing AMI: advanced metering infrastructure
Smart Grid: info, control dissemination SCADA: simple centralized polliing • inadequate as # data producers, consumers increase pub-sub: data, control dissemination: • quasi-centralization consistent with Internet trend • separating control from data switching • centralization (RCP, 4D) • challenges: reliability, manageability, security
Reflection: what can the Internet teach us? Keshav’s hypothesis Internet technologies, research developed over past 40 years, can be used to green the grid • similarities (on the surface): • power routing = internet flow routing • grid management = network management • but…. • Internet best effort service model won’t cut it • manageability, security, reliability (five 9’s) not yet Internet main strengths • research needed: smart grid architecture, protocols • networking, distributed systems real-time systems
Reflection: what can the Internet teach us? Keshav’s2nd hypothesis The next decade will determine the structure of the grid in 2120 architecture: punctuated equilibrium? • today’s IP v4: 30+ years old • today’s meteorological sensing network: 30+ years old • telephone network: manual to stored-program-control to IP over 100 years …… the time is indeed now
Take home: • rich sensors: on beyond “motes” • closed loop, real time control: sense and response • smart grid: • data (sensor) rich • transition underway … help needed!
