Power needs are growing at a much faster rate than our grid capacity. Greater energy effiencies can be implemented using smart appliances that can talk to a smart grid, giving consumers control over their own power consumption and electricity costs. As this video suggests, this will save money for our nation, protect our power sources from blackout, create jobs and deliver clean, alternative forms of energy.

Overcoming clean energy infrastructure challenges and reducing America's dependence on foreign oil is the theme for the forum covered in this video. Participants in the discussion include Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), former President Bill Clinton, former Vice President Al Gore, former U.S. Senator and United Nations Foundation President Timothy Wirth, business leader and clean energy advocate T. Boone Pickens and Center for American Progress Action Fund President John Podesta. The discussion cites inadequate access to transmission as one of the most significant barriers to widespread development of renewable energy. |

So Sharmistha Bhattacharyya explains why voltage quality regulation is needed in today's electricity infrastructure. Electricity as a commodity should satisfy strict quality requirements. At present, no definite responsibility with respect to power quality (PQ) aspects at the point of connection (POC) is defined in the European standard EN50160 or other standard.

The research explores distributed sensing techniques for mobile devices using synchronous gestures. These are patterns of activity, contributed by multiple users (or one user with multiple devices), which take on a new meaning when they occur together in time, or in a specific sequence in time. To explore this new area of inquiry, this work uses tablet computers augmented with touch sensors and twoaxis linear accelerometers (tilt sensors). The devices are connected via an 802.11 wireless network and synchronize their time-stamped sensor data. This paper describes a few practical examples of interaction techniques using synchronous gestures such as dynamically tiling together displays by physically bumping them together, discusses
implementation issues, and speculates on further possibilities for synchronous gestures. |
