Context Trails: A Dataset to Study Contextual and Route Recommendation
Recommender systems in the tourism domain are gaining increasing attention, yet the development of diverse recommendation tasks remains limited, largely due to the scarcity of public datasets. This paper introduces Context ... -
Computing leastcore allocations for firm-energy rights: a mixed integer programming procedure
The Firm energy of generation plants is a critical component in some electricity markets. It is usually calculated by the regulator and sets a cap to the amount a plant can trade in capacity markets (or auctions), in order ... -
Evaluation of demand side management mechanisms and opportunities for their development in the Brazilian power industry
Demand Side Management (DSM) can be defined as the process that aims to modify the behavior of the consumer through price signals, financial incentives and awareness actions, among other mechanisms, in order to improve the ... -
Practices for risk assessment and control in the Brazilian electricity market: state of the art
CIGRE Study committee C5 in Brazil created in 2014 a working group to focus on risk management practices. This paper analyses the results of a survey done in 2015, that intended to discover the current status of risk ... -
Aligning regulatory incentives and price signals in the Brazilian wholesale and retail electricity markets
Managing electricity supply and demand for electricity in Brazil is particularly challenging because of the great variability of supply and demand. The variability of supply is due to the stochastic nature of renewable ... -
Minimax approaches to optimal transmission expansion planning considering non-probabilistic scenarios of market-based renewable generation capacity additions
This paper investigates the potential of minimax-cost and minimax-regret approaches for centralized & determinative transmission expansion planning under uncertainty regarding market-based generation expansion, ... -
Explorative ex-ante consumer cluster delineation for electrification planning using image processing tools
The ex-ante division of consumers into potential off-grid and grid-extension clusters represents a crucial input to electrification planning. This paper explores the application of image processing tools to distinguish ... -
On the emerging role of spatial load forecasting in transmissiondistribution grid planning
Spatial load forecasting methodologies spatially allocate expected electricity demand growth in a study area. In the last decades, this kind of forecasting has been applied to backup traditional transmission and distribution ... -
Comparison among deterministic methods to design rural mini-grids: effect of operating strategies
Mini-grids are well known to be a suitable solution to foster rural electrification in developing countries, and yet risks and high costs are hampering their spreading. Even though effective tools can help developers to ... -
Impact of gas third party access in the unit commitment optimal solution
The importance of the natural gas sector in the electric power industry has increased substantially over the last decades, reaching 21 generation capacity in Europe in 2016. Generation companies that own gas fired units ... -
Gestión de proyectos internacionales - Programa EMPIR 2014: Una experiencia española
El Centro Español de Metrología (CEM) ha colaborado activamente en la gestión del proyecto europeo EMPIR 14IND14 (2015-2018): “Torque measurement in the MN·m range”. El objetivo de este proyecto era desarrollar nuevos ... -
Explorative spatial data mining for energy technology adoption and policy design analysis
Spatial data mining aims at the discovery of unknown, useful patterns from large spatial datasets. This article presents a thorough analysis of the Portuguese adopters of distributed energy resources using explorative ... -
Vertical load uncertainty at the TD boundary under different spatial DER allocation techniques
Vertical load is the power flow between electrical transmission and distribution networks. In the past, large-scale generators connected to transmission systems supplied consumers connected to lower voltage levels across ... -

Optimal design of off-grid power systems operated by a rolling-horizon strategy: a method to reduce computational requirements
Reducing costs and risks to foster rural electrification in developing countries is one of the major hurdles for researchers, firms and practitioners aiming to develop business with rural minigrids, which are local networks ... -
Evaluación del tratamiento superficial de lámina de cobre para aplicaciones electrónicas
El cobre se ha utilizado durante más de 50 años en la fabricación de placas de circuito impreso (PCB). Estos PCB se producen mediante la laminación de varias capas de preimpregnados de epoxi reforzados con fibra de vidrio ... -
Enhanced brain death diagnosis through teleneurology
Background: Brain death determination requires expertise and in some cases leads to additional medical procedures that may not be available everywhere. It also generates a great amount of distress for patients and their ... -
Sistema inalámbrico de monitorización neurofisológica intraoperatoria (MNIO)
La Monitorización Neurofisiológica Intraoperatoria (MNIO) es una técnica ampliamente utilizada que sirve para evaluar de forma continuada el funcionamiento de estructuras nerviosas en riesgo de lesión durante el acto ... -
Heuristic approaches to size microgrids: a methodology to compile multiple design options
With the aim of maximizing profits of specific business applications, economics, and sometimes reliability and environmental constraints, have been widely guiding developers when designing microgrids. However, mathematical ...
