This paper develops a strategy, using concepts from Mean Field Games, to coordinate the charging of a large population of battery electric vehicles (BEVs...
BibTeX referenceIdentification of hot water end-use process of electric water heaters from energy measurements
This paper presents an algorithm for the identification of parameters for a stochastic hot water end-use process that drives a homogeneous population of ther...

While one can exploit the storage properties and thus the deferability or anticipation potential of many classes of power system loads (such as thermal loads...
BibTeX referenceDynamic marketing policies with online-review-sensitive consumers: A mean-field games approach
We consider a large group of consumers who can choose between two products at each purchasing occasion. Their choice is influenced by the marketing strateg...
BibTeX reference
Intermittent renewable energy, such as solar and wind, brings uncertainty into the grid. To increase their contribution into the energy mix, load management ...
BibTeX reference
We consider a class of dynamic collective choice models with social interactions, whereby a large number of non-uniform agents have to individually settle ...
BibTeX reference
We consider a dynamic game model of ride-sourcing, where a large number of private car owners provide rides to randomly appearing customers. Free drivers c...
BibTeX reference
The object of study in the recent theory of Mean Field Games has been primarily large populations of agents interacting through a population dependent coupli...
BibTeX reference
This paper deals with a family of dynamic game models that represent schematically the interaction between groups of countries in achieving the necessary lim...
BibTeX reference
We consider within the framework of Mean Field Games theory a dynamic discrete choice model with an advertiser, where a large number of minor agents (e.g., c...
BibTeX referenceDynamic collective choice: Social optima
We consider a dynamic collective choice problem where a large number of players are cooperatively choosing between multiple destinations while being influenc...
BibTeX reference
Inspired by successful biological collective decision mechanisms such as honey bees searching for a new colony or the collective navigation of fish schoo...
BibTeX reference
We consider a multi-agent system with linear stochastic individual dynamics, and individual linear quadratic ergodic cost functions. The agents partially o...
BibTeX reference
Pressure on ancillary reserves in power systems has significantly mounted due to the recent generalized increase of the fraction of (highly fluctuating) wi...
BibTeX reference
Studies of traffic dynamics rely either on macroscopic models considering the traffic as a fluid, or on microscopic models of drivers' behavior. The connec...
BibTeX reference
This paper considers inventory models of <i>(Q,s)</i> type with <i>Q</i> the order-quantity and <i>s</i> the order point. In general, an optimal choice of c...
BibTeX reference
Unconditional consensus is the property of a consensus algorithm for multiple agents, to produce consensus irrespective of the particular time or state at wh...
BibTeX reference
We consider a fluid model of an unreliable production line consisting of <i>n</i> machines and <i>n</i> fixed buffer sizes. These machines produce a single p...
BibTeX reference
The paper addresses the optimal production control problems for an unreliable manufacturing system that produces items that can be regarded as conforming or ...
BibTeX reference
Optimization of single machine, single part-type dedicated Kanban policies in multi-part transfer lines with unreliable machines is considered. At each prod...
