This book paves the way for researchers working on the sustainable interdependent networks spread over the fields of computer science, electrical engineering, and smart infrastructures. It provides the readers with a comprehensive insight to understand an in-depth big picture of smart cities as a thorough example of interdependent large-scale networks in both theory and application aspects. The contributors specify the importance and position of the interdependent networks in the context of developing the sustainable smart cities and provide a comprehensive investigation of recently developed optimization methods for large-scale networks. There has been an emerging concern regarding the optimal operation of power and transportation networks. In the second volume of Sustainable Interdependent Networks book, we focus on the interdependencies of these two networks, optimization methods to deal with the computational complexity of them, and their role in future smart cities. We further investigate other networks, such as communication networks, that indirectly affect the operation of power and transportation networks. Our reliance on these networks as global platforms for sustainable development has led to the need for developing novel means to deal with arising issues. The considerable scale of such networks, due to the large number of buses in smart power grids and the increasing number of electric vehicles in transportation networks, brings a large variety of computational complexity and optimization challenges. Although the independent optimization of these networks lead to locally optimum operation points, there is an exigent need to move towards obtaining the globally-optimum operation point of such networks while satisfying the constraints of each network properly. The book is suitable for senior undergraduate students, graduate students interested in research in multidisciplinary areas related to future sustainable networks, and the researchers working in the related areas. It also covers the application of interdependent networks which makes it a perfect source of study for audience out of academia to obtain a general insight of interdependent networks.
This book focuses on the theory and application of interdependent networks. The contributors consider the influential networks including power and energy networks, transportation networks, and social networks. The first part of the book provides the next generation sustainability framework as well as a comprehensive introduction of smart cities with special emphasis on energy, communication, data analytics and transportation. The second part offers solutions to performance and security challenges of developing interdependent networks in terms of networked control systems, scalable computation platforms, and dynamic social networks. The third part examines the role of electric vehicles in the future of sustainable interdependent networks. The fourth and last part of this volume addresses the promises of control and management techniques for the future power grids.
This textbook presents multiple facets of design, development and deployment of deep learning networks for both students and industry practitioners. It introduces a deep learning tool set with deep learning concepts interwoven to enhance understanding. It also presents the design and technical aspects of programming along with a practical way to understand the relationships between programming and technology for a variety of applications. It offers a tutorial for the reader to learn wide-ranging conceptual modeling and programming tools that animate deep learning applications. The book is especially directed to students taking senior level undergraduate courses and to industry practitioners interested in learning about and applying deep learning methods to practical real-world problems.Â
The primary idea behind deploying sensor networks is to utilize the distributed sensing capability provided by tiny, low powered and low cost devices.Multiple sensing devices can be used cooperatively and collaboratively to capture events or monitor space more effectively than a single sensing device. Most of the applications envisioned with sensor networks demand highly reliable, accurate and fault-tolerant data acquisition process.The integrity of data alone can have tremendous effects on the performance of any data acquisition system.Due to the low manufacturing cost, the sensors lend themselves to be deployed in large numbers with a high spatial distribution.Such a large deployment scheme often generates enormous amount of data that needs to be efficiently summarized and delivered for analysis and processing. The primary aim of this book is to provide innovative solutions to serveral problem domain - efficient data acquisition, large data processing, decision making and monitoring that all help in optimizing the performance of the given sensor network in real-world deployment scenarios.
