      Asynchronous coordination of distributed energy resources for the provisioning of ancillary services 

      Hadjicostis, Christoforos N.; Charalambous, T. (2011)
      This paper analyzes the stability of asynchronous coordination protocols and studies their application to energy resource provisioning of ancillary services in power grids. First, we consider and analyze a protocol that ...

      A distributed generation control architecture for islanded ac microgrids 

      Cady, S. T.; Domínguez-Garcia, A. D.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (2015)
      In this paper, we propose a distributed architecture for generation control in islanded ac microgrids with both synchronous generators and inverter-interfaced power supplies. Although they are smaller and have lower ratings, ...

      Finite-time approximate consensus and its application to distributed frequency regulation in islanded AC microgrids 

      Cady, S. T.; Domínguez-Garcia, A. D.; Hadjicostis, Christoforos N. (IEEE Computer Society, 2015)
      In this paper, we propose an iterative algorithm that allows a set of interconnected nodes to reach approximate consensus in a finite number of steps, i.e., Allows the nodes to reach agreement to within a pre-specified ...

      Selected antenna applications of Negative-Refractive-Index Transmission-Line (NRI-TL) metamaterials 

      Eleftheriades, G. V.; Antoniades, Marcos A.; Qureshi, F. (2006)
      Metamaterials (MM) that exhibit a simultaneously negative electric permittivity E and magnetic permeability μ, and thus a negative refractive index (NRI), have recently attracted considerable attention in the electromagnetics ...
