Smart meter aggregation via secret-sharing [PDF]
Proceedings of the first ACM workshop on Smart energy grid security, 2013 We design and prototype protocols for processing smart-meter readings while preserving user privacy. We provide support for computing non-linear functions on encrypted readings, implemented by adapting to our setting efficient secret-sharing-based secure multi-party computation techniques.

Smart Directional Data Aggregation in VANETs [PDF]
2018 IEEE 32nd International Conference on Advanced Information Networking and Applications (AINA), 2018 The ultimate goal of a Traffic Information System (TIS) consists in properly informing vehicles about road traffic conditions in order to reduce traffic jams and consequently CO2 emission while increasing the user comfort. Therefore, the design of an efficient aggregation protocol that combines correlated traffic information like location, speed and ...

An optimal scheduling for aggregators in smart grids [PDF]
2015 12th International Conference on the European Energy Market (EEM), 2015 This paper proposes a stochastic optimization method that produces bidding curves to be submitted by an aggregator to the day ahead wholesale markets taking into account the possible imbalance costs as well as the uncertainty of the forecasts (market price, demand and renewable generation for the next day).

Smart Cities via Data Aggregation
Wireless Personal Communications, 2014 Cities have an ever increasing wealth of sensing capabilities, recently including also internet of things (IoT) systems. However, to fully exploit such sensing capabilities with the aim of offering effective city-sensing-driven applications still presents certain obstacles.

Secure Lossless Aggregation for Smart Grid M2M Networks [PDF]
2010 First IEEE International Conference on Smart Grid Communications, 2010 Whilst security is generally perceived as an important constituent of communication systems, this paper offers a viable security-communication-tradeoff particularly tailored to Advanced Metering Infrastructures (AMIs) in Smart Grid systems. These systems, often composed of embedded nodes with highly constrained resources, require e.g.

A PZT-Based Electromechanical Impedance Method for Monitoring the Soil Freeze–Thaw Process
Sensors, 2019 It is important to conduct research on the soil freeze–thaw process because concurrent adverse effects always occur during this process and can cause serious damage to engineering structures.
