Generation Capacity Investments in Competitive Electricity Markets: A Preliminary Assessment after 10 years of Liberalization in Europe

Matthias Finger, Bastian Wolfgang Schwark

Balancing supply and demand in energy markets is not an easy task. Competitive markets oblige private actors to justify their investments towards their shareholders by appropriate rates of return. Consequently, electricity markets may lead to under-investm ...

Environomic modeling and multi-objective optimisation of integrated energy systems for power and cogeneration

Hongtao Li

Current and future dynamics, of environmental legislations and trading market, of the fuel and electricity prices due to the market liberalization or resource shortages, and of the innovations of power/cogeneration technologies, impose great challenges on ...

Multicoordinated Paxos

Rodrigo Malta Schmidt, Fernando Pedone

Classic Paxos is a round-based distributed consensus algorithm. Normally, proposals are sent to the round leader and decided in two communication steps more. Fast Paxos extends Classic Paxos by allowing also fast rounds, in which a decision can be learned ...

On de Bruijn Routing in Distributed Hash Tables: There and Back Again

Karl Aberer, Anwitaman Datta, Sarunas Girdzijauskas

We show in this paper that de Bruijn networks, despite providing efficient search while using constant routing table size, as well as simplicity of the understanding and implementation of such networks, are unsuitable where key distribution will be uneven, ...

Principles of Query-Adaptive Optimal Replication in DHTs

Karl Aberer, Anwitaman Datta, Wolfgang Nejdl

This paper focuses on replication in DHT based structured overlay networks, and presents a theoretical framework for optimal replication in such networks with respect to query frequency. In particular, we determine the optimal replication factor for query- ...

The Quest for Balancing Peer Load in Structured Peer-to-Peer Systems

Karl Aberer, Manfred Hauswirth, Anwitaman Datta

Structured peer-to-peer (P2P) systems are considered as the next generation application backbone on the Internet. An important problem of these systems is load balancing in the presence of non-uniform data distributions. In this paper we propose a complete ...
