    Towards Decision Support for Smart Energy Systems based on Spatio-temporal Models

    This report presents our SmartSpace event handling framework for managing smart-grids and renewable energy installations. SmartSpace provides decision support for human stakeholders. Based on different datasources that feed into our framework, a variety of analysis and decision steps are supported. These decision steps are ultimately used to provide adequate information to human stakeholders. The paper discusses potential data sources for decisions around smart energy systems and introduces a spatio-temporal modeling technique for the involved data. Operations to reason about the formalized data are provided. Our spatio-temporal models help to provide a semantic context for the data. Customized rules allow the specification of conditions under which information is provided to stakeholders. We exemplify our ideas and present our demonstrators including visualization capabilities

    On Decision Support for Remote Industrial Facilities using the Collaborative Engineering Framework

    Full text link
    Means to support collaboration for remote industrial facilities such as mining are an important topic, especially in Australia, where major mining sites can be more than a thousand kilometers from population centres. Software-based collaboration and maintenance solutions can help to reduce costs associated with these remote facilities. In this paper, we report on our collaborative engineering project providing a decision support solution tailored for Australian needs. We present two application examples: one related to incident handling in industrial automation, the other one in the area of smart energy systems
