Article Citation - WoS: 260Citation - Scopus: 380Smart Grid Communication and Information Technologies in the Perspective of Industry 4.0: Opportunities and Challenges(Elsevier, 2018-11) Faheem, M.; Shah, S. B. H.; Butt, R. A.; Raza, B.; Anwar, M.; Ashraf, M. W.; Gungor, V. C.The fourth industrial revolution known as Industry 4.0 has paved the way for a systematical deployment of the modernized power grid (PG) to manage continuously growing energy demand by integrating renewable energy resources. In the context of Industry 4.0, a smart grid (SG) by employing advanced Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), intelligent information processing (IIP) and future-oriented techniques (FoT) allows energy utilities to monitor and control power generation, transmission and distribution processes in more efficient, flexible, reliable, sustainable, decentralized, secure and economic manners. Despite providing immense opportunities, SG has many challenges in the context of Industry 4.0 (I 4.0). To this end, this paper presents a comprehensive presentation on critical smart grid components with international standards and information technologies in the context of Industry 4.0. In addition, this study gives an overview of different smart grid applications, their benefits, characteristics, and requirements. Also, this research investigates and explores different wired and wireless communication technologies used in smart grid with their benefits and characteristics. Finally, this article discusses a number of critical challenges and open issues and future research directions. (C) 2018 Elsevier Inc.

C.Recently, there have been great advances in internet of things (IoT) and wireless sensor networks (WSNs) leading to the fourth industrial revolution in power grid, namely, Smart Grid Industry 4.0 (SGI 4.0). In the Smart Grid Industry 4.0 framework, the WSNs have the potential to improve power grid efficiency by cable replacement, deployment flexibility, and cost reduction. However, the smart grid (SG) environment that the WSNs operate in is very challenging because of equipment noise, dust, heat, electromagnetic interference, multipath effects and fading, which make it difficult for current WSNs to provide reliable communication. For SGI 4.0 to come true, a WSN-based highly reliable communication infrastructure is essential for successful operation of the next-generation electricity power grids. To address this need, in this paper a novel dynamic clustering based energy efficient and quality-of-service (QoS)-aware routing protocol (called EQRP), which is inspired by the real behavior of the bird mating optimization (BMO), has been proposed. The proposed distributed scheme improves network reliability significantly and reduces excessive packets retransmissions for WSN-based SG applications. Performance results show that the proposed protocol has successfully reduced the end-to-end delay and has improved packet delivery ratio, memory utilization, residual energy, and throughput.

Waqar; Butt, Rizwan Aslam; Faheem, M.; Tariq, M.; Munir, AbidOptical network serves as a core network with huge capacity and a multitude of high-speed data transmission. Natural disasters and physical attacks showed significant impacts on the optical networks such as damages the network nodes and optical links. Network survivability attempts to provide uninterrupted services when network component ceases to function or malfunctioned either in the event of a disaster or due to human intervention. In this paper, two polynomial-time algorithms have been proposed to select an optimal pair of link-disjoint lightpaths between two network nodes such that (1) their minimum spatial distance (MSD) is maximized, and (2) the path length of the primary lightpath is minimized such that backup lightpath has some particular MSD from the primary lightpath while disregarding safe regions around the source and destination nodes. Through extensive simulations, it is shown that, in case of disaster event, the first algorithm (DPMMSD) computes the backup path with maximum survivability in case of multiple link failures of spatially close nodes, whereas second algorithm (CMMSD) computes the shortest backup lightpath while adhering to the target survivability requirements. DPMMSD, CMMSD and the benchmark EKSP enables the evaluation and comparison of the performance. EKSP computes more pairs hence takes more computing time whereas DPMMSD and CMMSD modestly discard the computation of self and repeating pairs, enabling quick computations.
