Provably Privacy-Preserving Distributed Data Aggregation in Smart Grids [PDF]

, 2020
The digitalization of power systems leads to a significant increase of energy consumers and generators with communication capabilities. Using data of such devices allows for a more efficient grid operation, e.g., by improving the balancing of power demand and supply.

Integrity Protection for Data Aggregation in Smart Grid

Security and Communication Networks, 2022
To evaluate the working state of the smart grid, users need to count the status of devices collected by multiple smart meters. To avoid network congestion during data collection processes in the smart grid, an aggregation protocol is required to aggregate messages from multiple smart meters into one short message.

Effect of surfactant concentration on the responsiveness of a thermoresponsive copolymer/surfactant mixture with potential application on Smart foams formulations

, 2017
We studied a system formed by a mixture of a thermoresponsive negatively charged graft copolymer (Alg-g-PNIPAAm) with a brush-type structure, and an oppositely charged surfactant (DTAB), in bulk and at the air-solution interface. We performed experiments
