2017 IEEE Symposium
on Computational Intelligence Applications in Smart Grid (IEEE
CIASG'17)
Computational
Intelligence (CI) evolves computational models and tools of
intelligence capable of handling large raw numerical sensory data
directly, processing them by exploiting the representational
parallelism and pipelining the problem, generating reliable and
just-in-time responses, and having high fault tolerance. Smart grid is
basically the embedding of intelligence to enable bidirectional power
flows with traditional sources of power generation, renewable sources
and energy storage. CI deployment is essential in smart grid to make it
a success. Research and deployment of smart grid technologies are being
promoted by governments of many countries as a way of addressing energy
independence, emission reductions, and bringing resilience to
electricity infrastructures. The Symposium on CI Applications in Smart
Grid (CIASG) aims at bringing researchers and engineers from academia
and industry together to present, interact and review the latest
progresses in this emerging field, and to explore future research
directions to address its challenges.
