Software X10-UPNP Bridge
IADIS MULTI CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER SCIENCE AND
INFORMATION SYSTEMS 2008
Amsterdam, The Netherlands
JULY 22 - 24, 2008In a future of smart houses where multiple heterogeneous devices will be interconnected to provide new functionalities
and to ease everyday tasks, several issues will challenge the research, including interoperability and interfaces between
different systems. The work presented in this paper describes a software bridge that exposes X10 devices as UPnP
devices to UPnP control points, banking on the networks integration and alternatives to create mixed installations
that are optimized for ease, reliability and functionality
La buena lid del césar Carlos o el panadero de Barbarroja
Este artículo versa sobre un episodio del “De bello Africo” del cronista Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda, que sólo se encuentra narrado en la relación “Lo de La Goleta y Túnez, año 1535”, atribuida en un principio al historiador Luis de Ávila y Zúñiga, pero en cuyo trasiego también anduvieron envueltos Garcilaso de la Vega y Diego Hurtado de Mendoza. En este episodio se cuenta un acto de lealtad con el enemigo Barbarroja, que el emperador, no obstante, desmintió, por lo que Sepúlveda lo eliminó en todas las redacciones de su crónica latina de Carlos V. Para explicar este lance, se determina con precisión la fuente de la historiografía romana clásica con que glosó este episodio el docto cronista y se hacen algunas consideraciones sobre la actitud ética y política de Carlos V al respecto de la crónica de sus hechos, entre ellas, el comentario de un pasaje que el mismo Sepúlveda escribió contra Maquiavelo y que aquí se traduce por primera vez a partir del cotejo en el aparato crítico de la reciente edición de la obra de Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda donde se nos ha transmitido.
This paper deals with an episode from Juan Ginés de Sepúlveda's De bello Africo, which is only found in Lo de La Goleta y Túnez, año 1535, a work attributed to Luis de Ávila y Zúñiga. In this piece, an act of loyalty to enemy Barbarossa, which the Emperor however denied, is narrated. In order to explain this feat, some considerations on Charles V's ethical and political attitude as reflected in the chronicle of his exploits are given; among these, a critical commentary on a passage that Sepúlveda wrote against Machiavelli is offered
Resilient Distributed Energy Management for Systems of Interconnected Microgrids
In this paper, distributed energy management of interconnected microgrids,
which is stated as a dynamic economic dispatch problem, is studied. Since the
distributed approach requires cooperation of all local controllers, when some
of them do not comply with the distributed algorithm that is applied to the
system, the performance of the system might be compromised. Specifically, it is
considered that adversarial agents (microgrids with their controllers) might
implement control inputs that are different than the ones obtained from the
distributed algorithm. By performing such behavior, these agents might have
better performance at the expense of deteriorating the performance of the
regular agents. This paper proposes a methodology to deal with this type of
adversarial agents such that we can still guarantee that the regular agents can
still obtain feasible, though suboptimal, control inputs in the presence of
adversarial behaviors. The methodology consists of two steps: (i) the
robustification of the underlying optimization problem and (ii) the
identification of adversarial agents, which uses hypothesis testing with
Bayesian inference and requires to solve a local mixed-integer optimization
problem. Furthermore, the proposed methodology also prevents the regular agents
to be affected by the adversaries once the adversarial agents are identified.
In addition, we also provide a sub-optimality certificate of the proposed
methodology.Comment: 8 pages, Conference on Decision and Control (CDC) 201
