My interests lie in the broad spectrum of the smart grid research that integrates traditional knowledge of electric power systems – together with optimization algorithms, agent technology, cyber-physical system, cybersecurity, smart grid-related communications, protocols, and standards – to address an emerging set of challenges in electric power system research. In particular, I am interested in research topics that involve the development of enabling technologies and intelligent algorithms that potentially transform traditional electric power grids to be more intelligent, and fit into the overall “transactive energy” concept.
