FLC Technique in Smart Grid for Demand Side Management

The chapter discusses the general characteristics of smart grid, which combines different state-of-the-art technologies intended for operative power distribution when the generation is decentralized. Fault's existence in the power grid is entirely unanticipated. Fuzzy logic is the computational intelligence technique that integrates the knowledge base of experts that is either human or system using the qualitative expression. This technique can successfully be applied for end-user who is a prosumer and aims for low electricity bill as well as provide intelligent decision-making skill in the agents of the multi-agent system. Fuzzy inference system can be efficiently used in such systems due to its capability to deal with imprecision, incomplete data, and its strong knowledge base.

An Ant-Colony-Based Meta-Heuristic Approach for Load Balancing in Cloud Computing

This book chapter proposes use of Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), a novel computational intelligence technique for balancing loads of virtual machine in cloud computing. Computational intelligence(CI), includes study of designing bio-inspired artificial agents for finding out probable optimal solution. So the central goal of CI can be said as, basic understanding of the principal, which helps to mimic intelligent behavior from the nature for artifact systems. Basic strands of ACO is to design an intelligent multi-agent systems imputed by the collective behavior of ants. From the perspective of operation research, it's a meta-heuristic. Cloud computing is a one of the emerging technology. It's enables applications to run on virtualized resources over the distributed environment. Despite these still some problems need to be take care, which includes load balancing. The proposed algorithm tries to balance loads and optimize the response time by distributing dynamic workload in to the entire system evenly.
