## INFOCOM'2014 Workshops on CCSES: 2014 IEEE INFOCOM Workshop on Communications and Control for Smart Energy Systems - Program

## Monday, April 28

### 09:00 - 10:00

#### K1: Keynote 1

Control and Management of Smart Grids
Alberto Leon-Garcia
Room: Pier 2
Chair: Lachlan L. H. Andrew (Monash University, Australia)

ABSTRACT:
In this talk we will examine whether a single framework for control and management can be applied to a broad range of smart infrastructures, and to Smart Grids in particular. We will begin with an introduction to the Janus Management System developed for the SAVI Network testbed. Janus provides for the management of converged computing and network infrastructure using a single system that operates on top of OpenFlow for software-defined networking and OpenStack for cloud computing. We will show how Janus enables the programmability of the infrastructure through the support of applications. We will highlight the features in Janus that are intended to provide a general management framework. We will then discuss the applicability of the Janus framework to the management of Smart Grid infrastructures.

Smart Grid: Status and Challenges
S. Keshav
Room: Pier 2
Chair: Lachlan L. H. Andrew (Monash University, Australia)

ABSTRACT:
Smart Grids have evolved from a topic of interest only to a handful of power engineers to a buzzword that attracts attention from non-traditional industries (such as Cisco and HP), numerous governments as well as researchers in computer science, computer engineering, and artificial intelligence. Is there a reality behind the hype? How far away are we from seeing practical outcomes from the work so far? In this talk, I will attempt to assess the state of the art and point out some open research challenges.
