Arbitrary Order Fractional Difference Operators with Discrete Exponential Kernels and Applications by Thabet Abdeljawad, Qasem M. Al-Mdallal, Mohamed A. Hajji

“…Then, existence and uniqueness theorems for the Caputo (CFC) and Riemann (CFR) type initial difference value problems by using Banach contraction theorem are proved. Finally, a Lyapunov type inequality for the Riemann type fractional difference boundary value problems of order 2<α≤3 is proved and the ordinary difference Lyapunov inequality then follows as α tends to 2 from right. …”

Application of blockchain technology in the demand response management of power grid by Haowen REN, Yaqi YANG

“…The theory of decentralized blockchain mechanism was studied,and a method of applying distributed block chain technology to manage demand response planning in smart grid environment was proposed.This method was based on the blockchain distributed ledger accounting tamper-proof technology,which stored the energy consumption information collected from the intelligent metering devices of the IoT,and defined the self-executing intelligent contract at each consumer level in a programmatic way to ensure the flexibility of transactions.Blockchain distributed technologies provided incentives or penalties to balance energy demand with grid energy production rules.Consensus-based validation would be used to validate demand response plans and provide appropriate financial settlement for flexible suppliers.The results show that the power demand side management based on blockchain distributed technology can be used to match energy demand and production under the condition of smart grid,with high accuracy of demand response signal,but less flexibility required for convergence.…”
