MINER – Measurement Infrastructure for Network Research
MINER is a programmable software platform that supports users in conducting distributed experiments. So far, MINER has been primarily used for performance evaluation in computer networks. However, the platform can be equally applied to conduct distributed experiments that are not related to network measurements. more
ZSE – Zentrum für sichere Energieinformatik
The ZSE enables the secure and comprehensive networking of data of all participants in intelligent energy networks.
EMBS – Energy Management Building Set
The EMBS project develops an innovative, integrated control and planning system for demand-response and optimization of multi-utility/-energy devices and installations. more
Virtuegrid – Virtualisation for resilient and secure Smart Grid communication networks
Ongoing digitisation of power grids by large numbers of ICT-components for the purpose of extensive integration of renewable energy sources (REC) is demanding for novel system management strategies. The VirtueGrid project evaluates the potentials emerging from using virtualisation technolgies in the area of power grid control. more
MESSE – Model-based Engineering and Validation Support for Cyber-Physical Energy Systems
The massive deployment of distributed generators from renewable sources in recent years has led to a fundamental paradigm change in terms of planning and operation of the electric power system. MESSE develops of a concept for a model-based engineering and validation support system, covering the overall engineering process for smart grid applications – from use case design to validation and deployment. more
