Power Outage in the Hospitals

Proceedings of the 2019 International Conference on Intelligent Medicine and Image Processing, 2019
Numerous extraordinary events and crisis threaten the whole world. These situations endanger the lives, health, and property of citizens. These crises also affect crucial other infrastructure features not only in the Czech Republic. Health facilities are also under threat. This article focuses on crisis preparedness of the hospitals.

Pricing power outages in the Netherlands☆

Energy, 2009
In most Western countries, the power grid provides electricity more than 99% of the time. To maintain reliability at such high levels, energy companies have to continually invest in electric transmission- and distribution systems. Since customers of electricity cannot switch from one distribution network to another, no economic incentive exists that ...

On Outage Capacity in the Low Power Regime

IEEE Transactions on Information Theory, 2012
This paper derives a formula for the wideband slope for outage capacity and consider its application to some specific wireless channels. For the broadcast channel, the formula indicates that superposition is always superior to time-division multiple access (TDMA).

Modeling Dependent Outages of Electric Power Plants

Operations Research, 2020
In the article “Modeling Dependent Outages of Electric Power Plants,” Malladi, Mendoza-Arriaga, and Tompaidis study simultaneous outages of many electric power plants, a problem that can have severe economic consequences. Using real data, they separate power plants into possibly overlapping groups.

Power outage planning

European Journal of Operational Research, 1990
Abstract This paper is concerned with scheduling the planned electric power outage in a region where the expected demand for power exceeds the expected supply, during some interval of the year. To minimize the total economic loss of the power shortage, the best allocation of power outage among the consumers is determined.

Analysis of the Power Outage Effects in RFID

IEEE Communications Letters, 2017
During RFID inventories, transmission losses due to fading may cause power outage events to the tags, which loose their state and abandon the ongoing identification round. We develop an analytical model, which includes this effect and allows us to accurately characterize RFID anti-collision protocol performance. We show that power outage events produce

Power minimization with quality-of-information outages

2014 IEEE Wireless Communications and Networking Conference (WCNC), 2014
In this paper, we consider Quality-of-Information (QoI) aware transmission policies for a dynamic environment. In particular, we focus on the time-varying nature of the observation quality of the environment in practical networks which leads to uncertainty in satisfying QoI requirements specified by end users.
