EvoENERGY 2015, 8-10 April, Copenhagen, Denmark

Evolutionary Algorithms in Energy Applications


INTRODUCTION

Along with the worldwide incentive to reduce fossil and nuclear based power
generation, the number of distributed generators and other forms of
distributed energy resources which are installed in power networks has been
steadily increasing over the last years. This increased integration has
triggered a transformation of the energy system and challenges the
conventional operation of these networks.

On a network level, this transformation requires new control and communication
approaches, to guarantee the security of energy supplies as well as an optimal
exploitation of available resources. On a generator level, advanced control
strategies as well as morphological optimization (e.g., tuning of wind-blade
design) can help to assure an optimal performance of the generator.

EvoEnergy is intended as a platform for new, innovative computational
intelligence and nature-inspired techniques in the domain of energy-related
optimization research. We seek contributions ranging from new control concepts
for decentralized generation, strategies for their coordination in the network
to the morphological optimization of distributed generators.


TOPICS

Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

- evolutionary design and morphological optimization in energy systems
- management and prediction of distributed generation, storage and consumption
- advanced distribution management system functionalities
- Smart Grid planning, monitoring, operation and control
- distributed optimization in energy networks
- demand side management
- novel methods for network restoration


PUBLICATION AND SUBMISSION DETAILS

Accepted papers will appear in the proceedings of EvoStar, published in a
volume of the Springer Lecture Notes in Computer Science, which will be

SUBMISSIONS
***********
Authors are invited to submit a draft of a full paper with at most 12 pages
(excluding the references section). The usage of pdflatex and the LIPIcs
style
file (see below) are mandatory; no changes to font size, page geometry etc.
are permitted. Submissions not in the correct format or submitted after the
deadline will not be considered.
The paper should contain a succinct statement of the issues and of
their motivation, a summary of the main results, and a brief
explanation of their significance, accessible to non-specialist
readers. Proofs omitted due to space constraints must be put into an
appendix, to be read by the program committee members at their discretion.
Simultaneous submission to other conferences with published proceedings or
to journals
is not allowed. PC members are excluded from submitting.
As a novelty for STACS, there will also be a rebuttal period for authors.
Authors will
receive the reviews of their submissions (via EasyChair) on Nov 14/15 and
have three
days (Nov 15 ? 17) to submit rebuttals (via EasyChair). These rebuttals
become part
of the PC meeting, but entail no specific responses.
The submission site, which opened on June 22, 2014, is
https://www.easychair.org/conferences/?conf=stacs2015

PROCEEDINGS
***********
Accepted papers will be published in the proceedings of the symposium.
As usual, these proceedings will appear in the Leibniz International
Proceedings in Informatics (LIPIcs) series, based at Schloss Dagstuhl.
This guarantees perennial, free and easy electronic access, while the
authors retain the rights over their work.
In addition, the proceedings will also be available as archives in the
open access electronic repository HAL.
With their submission, authors consent to sign a license authorizing
the program committee chairs to organize the electronic publication of
their paper, provided the paper is accepted.
Further details are available on www.stacs-conf.org and on the conference
website, http://www14.in.tum.de/konferenzen/STACS2015/ .
