  • a Conceptual Architecture of a trusted mobile environment
    International Workshop on Security, 2006
    Co-Authors: Zheng Yan
    Abstract:

    Trust is crucial in mobile communications. How to establish a trusted mobile environment is becoming more and more important for mobile device venders, mobile service providers and mobile networking operators. This paper presents a Conceptual Architecture towards establishing a trusted mobile environment. The contribution of this paper is a) specifying the Architecture of a trusted mobile environment; b) by developing the Conceptual Architecture, explaining key motivations behind the location of every element in the Architecture; and c) evaluating the Architecture by applying it into a mobile peer-to-peer system.

  • Blockchain-based Solar Electricity Exchange: Conceptual Architecture and Laboratory Setup
    2019 IEEE Power & Energy Society Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Conference (ISGT), 2019
    Co-Authors: Manisa Pipattanasomporn, Saifur Rahman, Murat Kuzlu
    Abstract:

    Over the past decade, high penetration of rooftop solar photovoltaics (PV) has been observed in many countries. The availability of rooftop solar PV at customer premises has transformed a house into an energy prosumer that can both consume and export electricity. With proper regulations in place, homeowners can become a market participant who can buy and sell excess solar electricity in a peer-to-peer (P2P) trading environment. With the emerging blockchain technology, it will be possible to securely keep track of such solar electricity exchange without a third party oversight. The objective of this paper is to discuss the Conceptual Architecture of the blockchain-based platform for exchange of solar electricity in a neighborhood. Several open-source blockchain platforms are reviewed, including Hyperledger, Ethereum and Corda. Experiments developed on one of the well-known open-source blockchain platforms are discussed that describe how a P2P exchange of solar electricity can be set up in a laboratory environment.

  • Conceptual Architecture of building energy management open source software bemoss
    IEEE PES Innovative Smart Grid Technologies Europe, 2014
    Co-Authors: Warodom Khamphanchai, Murat Kuzlu, Manisa Pipattanasomporn, Saifur Rahman, Avijit Saha, Kruthika Rathinavel, Bora Akyol, Jereme Haack
    Abstract:

    The objective of this paper is to present a Conceptual Architecture of a Building Energy Management Open Source Software (BEMOSS) platform. BEMOSS is an open source operating system that is expected to improve sensing and control of equipment in small- and medium-sized commercial buildings, reduce energy consumption and help implement demand response (DR). It aims to offer: scalability, robustness, plug and play, open protocol, interoperability, cost-effectiveness, as well as local and remote monitoring. In this paper, four essential layers of BEMOSS software Architecture — namely User Interface, Application and Data Management, Operating System and Framework, and Connectivity layers — are presented. A laboratory test bed to demonstrate the functionality of BEMOSS located at the Advanced Research Institute of Virginia Tech is also briefly described.

  • Blockchain-based Negawatt Trading Platform: Conceptual Architecture and Case Studies
    2019 IEEE PES GTD Grand International Conference and Exposition Asia (GTD Asia), 2019
    Co-Authors: Zejia Jing, Manisa Pipattanasomporn, Saifur Rahman
    Abstract:

    Demand reduction, also known as Negawatts or negative watts, has emerged as another commodity that can be exchanged. This paper discusses Conceptual Architecture of a blockchain-based negawatt trading platform implemented on Hyperledger. Two trading scenarios are discussed. The first scenario involves negawatt trading between a demand response aggregator and buildings. The second scenario discusses negawatt trading among buildings to meet the contract shortfalls of buildings in the first scenario. Participants, assets, transactions and transaction flows of both scenarios are described, together with the smart contracts that describe how buyers and sellers are compensated for their negawatt exchange. Case studies are implemented and compared.

  • flexible modeling tools for pre requirements analysis Conceptual Architecture and research challenges
    Conference on Object-Oriented Programming Systems Languages and Applications, 2010
    Co-Authors: Harold Ossher, Rachel K E Bellamy, Ian Simmonds, David Amid, Ateret Anabytavor, Matthew Callery, Michael Desmond, Jacqueline P De Vries, Amit Fisher, Sophia Krasikov
    Abstract:

    A serious tool gap exists at the start of the software lifecy-cle, before requirements formulation. Pre-requirements analysts gather information, organize it to gain insight, en-vision possible futures, and present insights and recom-mendations to stakeholders. They typically use office tools, which give great freedom, but no help with consistency management, change propagation, or information migration to downstream tools. Despite these downsides, office tools are still favored over modeling tools, which are constrain-ing and difficult to use. We introduce the notion of flexible modeling tools, which blend the advantages of office and modeling tools. We propose a Conceptual Architecture for such tools, and outline research challenges to be met in realizing them. We briefly describe the Business Insight Toolkit, a prototype tool embodying this Architecture.
