Title: Automated demand response energy management system
Inventor: ROMBOUTS JAN-WILLEM
IPC: G05B13/02
Filed: 2012-12-12
Abstract: Power flexibility of energy loads is maximized using a value function and outputting optimal control parameters per load. Loads are aggregated into a virtual load by maximizing a global value function including value functions for each load. The solution provides: a percentage of energy assigned to each load, a time-varying power level within a time interval for each load, and control parameters and values. An economic term of the global value function represents the value of the flexibility to different players. A user interface includes for each time interval upper and lower bounds representing maximum power that may be reduced to the virtual load and maximum power that may be consumed by the virtual load. An energy trader modifies an energy level in a time interval relative to the reference curve for the virtual load. Energy compensation for other intervals and recalculation of upper and lower boundaries occurs and is displayed. The energy schedule for the virtual load is distributed to the actual loads using the dispatch function.

Abstract: A server stores files and manages the synchronization of those files across client devices in accordance with user preferences that may be embodied in change management rules. A first version of a file has been designated to be synchronized across at least a first client and a second client. The first client accesses the first version of the file and creates a first modified version of the file, and the second client accesses the first version of the file and creates a second modified version of the file. When the first and second clients attempt to re-synchronize their respective modified versions of the file, the server determines a preferred version from among the available modified versions of the file according to change management rules. Then, the preferred version is stored by the server and is subsequently served for synchronization across the client devices.
