Energy harvesting and reliable networking for dense IoT KU Leuven
The aim of the PhD project is to design and implement novel energy harvesting and networking paradigms for IoT networks, where a large number of resource constrained nodes with minimal computing capabilities collaborate with each other to ensure that optimal performance can be achieved in metrics such as reliable packet delivery, low end-to-end delay and minimal energy expenditure and network overhead. Additionally, the ultimate aim of the ...

Networking European poultry actors for enhancing the compliance of biosecurity measures for asustainable production Research Institute for Agriculture, Fisheries and Food
The emergence of antibiotic resistance in the poultry sector may pose a threat to both animal and public health. This project aims to improve compliance with biosecurity standards through a holistic and multi-actor approach to the European poultry production chain, taking into account all dimensions of the production chain (public safety, economy, environment), at multiple scales (local, ...
Policy Research Centre - Governmental organization in Flanders II: local governance. The impact of networks on local policy, politics and management Ghent University
Local governments become involved in a more network-like governance context. 'Local policy' and 'local straegy', often used in terms of 'autonomous organisation', become the product of these interactions. This evolution provokes questions on the meaning of 'local politics' and 'local policy', on the capacities of municipalities to function in these networks and on the way municipalities should organise themselves.
Impact of local topology and local adaptation on network behaviour Ghent University
The research topics of this project are the use of biologically inspired principles in artificial neural networks, and the study of local and global network topologies. I develop a process for generating biologically plausible ANNs for complex temporal tasks. I start from state-of-the-art echo state networks.
Coordination of Flexibility Contracting in Wholesale and Local Electricity Markets KU Leuven
Energy users are investing in solar panels, batteries and smart-home energy
systems. New technology is creating both new opportunities and new needs.
New opportunities arise when users are empowered to respond to market
signals. New needs arise when network topology is transforming. Decentralized
renewable energy, electric vehicles, and storage are changing the face of electricity
distribution networks. Taking ...
