Exploiting Software Performance Engineering Techniques to Optimise the Quality of Smart Grid Environments
Pages 199 - 202
Abstract
This paper discusses the challenges and opportunities of Software Performance Engineering (SPE) research in smart-grid (SG) environments. We envision to use SPE techniques to optimise the quality of information and communications technology (ICT) applications, and thus optimise the quality of the overall SG. The overall process of Monitoring, Analysing, Planning, and Executing (MAPE) is discussed to highlight the current open issues of the domain and the expected benefits.
