Abstract

The growing application of ICT in the management of power generation and distribution plants is one of most sensitive case studies in the field of cyber-physical systems. At the date, several technologies and devices are present to improve the efficiency of these infrastructures giving to system engineers and practitioners a good set of mechanisms to optimise energy efficiency of the nodes. This paper defines a quantitative model that can be used to choose the smart-home logic able to maximise acquired/consumed energy and minimise costs. The model is based on the Fluid Stochastic Petri Net formalism and has been built according to compositional modelling approaches.
