Abstract:
The inclusion of various intelligent electronic devices such as smart meters for Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI) in Smart Grids is expected to result in intermittent or frequent communications network congestion if additional network infrastructure investments are not made. One approach to deal with such a data volume challenge in smart grids without additional investments to increase network capacity is to aggregate data streams within the underlying communication network whenever network congestion happens. However, this needs to be done carefully so as not to significantly impact the smart grid applications that need the data. In this talk, I will present my research on data management in capacity-constrained communication networks of AMI in Smart Grids considering the requirements of Quality-of-Service (QoS). I will discuss my research contributions in this area to deal with the challenge of managing data traffic while keeping a balance between data granularity and network latencies.

Bio:
Uddipan Das is currently working as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Computer Science at The College of New Jersey. He graduated with a Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from Wichita State University in 2020. Previously, he earned his M.E. degree in Software Engineering from Jadavpur University and B.Tech degree in Computer Science and Engineering from West Bengal University of Technology. His primary research interest centers around the design and development of data-driven algorithms and systems in smart cities; specifically, data management in smart electric power grid communication networks and smart environments for navigation and wayfinding for people with disabilities. He has published peer-reviewed research publications in the top-tier journal and conference venues, and he serves as a reviewer for the IEEE Systems Journal, IEEE ICDCS, IEEE NAPS, and IEEE IGSC, etc. He is a member of IEEE, IEEE Computer Society, and IEEE Power & Energy Society.
