Learning the Optimal Power Flow: Environment Design Matters

Energy and AI
To solve the optimal power flow (OPF) problem, reinforcement learning (RL) emerges as a promising new approach. However, the RL-OPF literature is strongly divided regarding the exact formulation of the OPF problem as an RL environment.

A quantity-quality-based optimization method for indoor thermal environment design

Energy, 2019
This paper proposes a quantity-quality-based optimization method of indoor thermal environment design that emphasizes entransy and exergy analysis. We scrutinized the different focuses of entransy and exergy in examining an energy-related phenomenon or ...

Designing Effective Study Environments

Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 1997
The study setting (private or open-plan), environmental color (blue, red, or white), and study material (reading or math comprehension) were manipulated in a simulated study environment to determine their effects on adult students' mood, satisfaction, motivation, and performance. Students rated the reading task as more demanding and less enjoyable than

The IDeA design environment

Proceedings of the 11th international conference on Software engineering - ICSE '89, 1989
The design of software is a complex process requiring the software designer to simultaneously perform a variety of activities. These include the exploration and analysis of design alternatives, the consideration and reuse of previous solutions, the management of design goals, dependencies, and partial solutions, and the recording of design decisions ...
