The robotics community is concerned with the ability to infer and compare the results from researchers in areas such as vision perception and multi-robot cooperative behavior. To accomplish that task, this paper proposes a real-time indoor visual ground truth system capable of providing accuracy with at least more magnitude than the precision of the algorithm to be evaluated. A multi-camera architecture is proposed under the ROS (Robot Operating System) framework to estimate the 3D position of objects and the implementation and results were contextualized to the Robocup Middle Size League scenario.

Smart Grids (SGs) have emerged as the new paradigm for power system operation and management, being designed to include large amounts of distributed energy resources. This new paradigm requires new Energy Resource Management (ERM) methodologies considering different operation strategies and the existence of new management players such as several types of aggregators. This paper proposes a methodology to facilitate the coalition between distributed generation units originating Virtual Power Players (VPP) considering a game theory approach. The proposed approach consists in the analysis of the classifications that were attributed by each VPP to the distributed generation units, as well as in the analysis of the previous established contracts by each player. The proposed classification model is based in fourteen parameters including technical, economical and behavioural ones. Depending of the VPP strategies, size and goals, each parameter has different importance. VPP can also manage other type of energy resources, like storage units, electric vehicles, demand response programs or even parts of the MV and LV distribution network. A case study with twelve VPPs with different characteristics and one hundred and fifty real distributed generation units is included in the paper.

Further improvements in demand response programs implementation are needed in order to take full advantage of this resource, namely for the participation in energy and reserve market products, requiring adequate aggregation and remuneration of small size resources. The present paper focuses on SPIDER, a demand response simulation that has been improved in order to simulate demand response, including realistic power system simulation. For illustration of the simulator’s capabilities, the present paper is proposes a methodology focusing on the aggregation of consumers and generators, providing adequate tolls for the demand response program’s adoption by evolved players. The methodology proposed in the present paper focuses on a Virtual Power Player that manages and aggregates the available demand response and distributed generation resources in order to satisfy the required electrical energy demand and reserve. The aggregation of resources is addressed by the use of clustering algorithms, and operation costs for the VPP are minimized. The presented case study is based on a set of 32 consumers and 66 distributed generation units, running on 180 distinct operation scenarios.

Os Sistemas de Gestão Técnica Centralizada (SGTC) assumem-se como essenciais nos grandes edifícios, já que permitem monitorizar, controlar, comandar e gerir, de forma facilitada, integrada e otimizada, as várias instalações existentes no edifício. O estado da arte de um SGTC baseia-se numa arquitetura distribuída, com recurso a Quadros de Gestão Técnica (QGT) que incluem Automation Servers - equipamentos nativos nos protocolos de comunicação mais comummente utilizados neste âmbito, incorporadores de funcionalidades e programações pré-definidas, e que ficarão responsáveis por integrar na sua área de influência, um conjunto de pontos de SGTC, definidos em projeto. Numa nova filosofia de instalação, integração e comunicação facilitada entre dispositivos que nos quadros elétricos geram dados relevantes para o utilizador e desencadeiam ações úteis na gestão de uma instalação, surge o novo conceito no mercado de Smart Panels, da Schneider Electric. Este sistema baseia-se numa ampla e diversa gama de possibilidades de medição e monitorização energética e da própria aparelhagem, com um sistema de comunicação com o sistema de gestão e controlo da instalação integrado no próprio quadro, dispensando assim a necessidade de um sistema externo (QGT), de recolha, comunicação e processamento de informação. Após o estudo descritivo teórico dos vários tópicos, questões e considerações relacionadas com os SGTC, os Smart Panels e a sua integração, o projeto e estudo comparativo do SGTC sem e com a integração de Smart Panels num grande centro comercial, permitiu concluir que a integração de Smart Panels num SGTC pode conferir vantagens no que diz respeito à implificação do projeto, da instalação, do comissionamento, programação, e da própria exploração da instalação elétrica, traduzindo-se numa redução dos custos normalmente elevados inerentes à mão de obra associada a todos estes processos.

As we move more closely to the practical concept of the Internet of Things and, our reliance on public and private APIs increases, web services and their related topics have become utterly crucial to the informatics community. However, the question about which style of web services would best solve a particular problem, can raise signi cant and multifarious debates. There can be found two implementation styles that highlight themselves: the RPC-oriented style represented by the SOAP protocol’s implementations and the hypermedia style, which is represented by the REST architectural style’s implementations. As we search examples of already established web services, we can nd a handful of robust and reliable public and private SOAP APIs, nevertheless, it seems that RESTful services are gaining popularity in the enterprise community. For the current generation of developers that work on informatics solutions, REST seems to represent a fundamental and straightforward alternative and even, a more deep-rooted approach than SOAP. But are they comparable? Do both approaches have each speci c best suitable scenarios? Such study is brie y carried out in the present document’s chapters, starting with the respective background study, following an analysis of the hypermedia approach and an instantiation of its architecture, in a particular case study applied in a BPM context.
