Dall’Anese Wins an NSF Grant
Professor Emiliano Dall’Anese won a $380k NSF grant for project entitled “ Online Optimization of Networked Systems Under Uncertain User Decisions and Responses”. The project’s focus is on the design of novel optimization methods required for complex infrastructures under these load conditions. His approach involves the development of algorithms and mathematical strategies which can adapt and account for real-time usage data, competing incentives from different service providers, and other factors, allowing for a responsive and nimble minute-by-minute management of resources to maintain smooth energy distribution. The resulting innovations will have potential applications in other, similarly complex systems, such as transportation networks.
