Peak Demands in Residential Areas
Journal AWWA, 1961In January 1959, the Department of Sanitary Engineering and Water Resources of Johns Hopkins University undertook a research project on peak water usage in residential areas. This project was sponsored jointly by Baltimore County, Baltimore City, the Maryland Health Department, and the Federal Housing Administration (FHA). More than 2 years have passed

Robust Server Consolidation: Coping with Peak Demand Underestimation
2016 IEEE 24th International Symposium on Modeling, Analysis and Simulation of Computer and Telecommunication Systems (MASCOTS), 2016Energy consumption in data centres accounts for a significant proportion of national energy usage in many countries. One approach for reducing energy consumption is to improve the server usage efficiency via workload consolidation. However, there are two primary reasons why this is not done to a large extent.

Predicting peak-demand days in the ontario peak reduction program for large consumers
Proceedings of the 5th international conference on Future energy systems, 2014In this paper, we propose a heuristic algorithm for day-ahead prediction of the top $K$ days having the highest peak hourly demand for electricity over a given year. This problem, which arises in the context of critical peak pricing in Ontario, Canada, is difficult because we may have to wait till the end of the year to find out which $K$ days ended up

Modeling Daily Peak Electricity Demand in Thailand
2015Modeling of daily peak electricity demand is very crucial for reliability and security assessments of electricity suppliers as well as of electricity regulators. The aim of this paper is to model the peak electricity demand using the dynamic Peak-Over-Threshold approach.

Consumers' Quality Choices During Demand Peaks
SSRN Electronic Journal, 2009In a number of product categories, average prices decrease when demand exogenously increases. The literature disagrees on whether this effect is due to firms' reactions to high demand or to changes in consumer behavior. I propose a strategy that enables the identification of supply and demand movements by examining unpredictable and short-lived ...
