Smart Grid @ GECCO 2013

On July 6th - 10th we attended the Genetic and Evolutionary Conference GECCO 2013 in Amsterdam. GECCO is the largest conference in field of genetic and evolutionary computation. The conference was organized by 18 different tracks like Genetic Programming, Genetic Algorithms or Real World Applications, had 35 different tutorials and hosted 13 workshops.

From the Smart Grid group, Dominik Egarter took part at the Green and Efficient Energy Applications of Genetic and Evolutionary Computation Workshop 2013, where he presented his paper EvoNILM - Evolutionary Appliance Detection for Miscellaneous Household Appliances.
In this workshop 5 different papers were presented, which topics were widely spread from power flow optimization, wind power forecasting to wind power siting.
