Abstract
Real world optimization problems like Scheduling are generally complex, large scaled, and constrained in nature. Thereby, classical operational research methods are often inadequate to efficiently solve them. Metaheuristics (MH) are used to obtain near-optimal solutions in an efficient way, but have different numerical and/or categorical parameters which make the tuning process a very time-consuming and tedious task. Learning methods can be used to aid with the parameter tuning process. Racing techniques have been used to evaluate, in a refined and efficient way, a set of candidates and discard those that appear to be less promising during the evaluation process. Case-based Reasoning (CBR) aims to solve new problems by using information about solutions to previous similar problems. A novel Racing+CBR approach is proposed and brings together the better of the two techniques. A computational study for the resolution of the scheduling problem is presented, concluding about the effectiveness of the proposed approach.

INTELLIGENT SYSTEMS DESIGN AND APPLICATIONS (ISDA 2016)

Abstract
This paper presents the specification of an architecture for self-organizing scheduling systems. The proposed architecture uses learning by observing the experts and interpretation of scheduling experience. The design of intelligent systems that learn with experts is a very hard and challenging domain because current systems are becoming more and more complex and subject to rapid changes. In this work, different areas as Intelligent and Adaptive Human-Machine Interfaces, Metacognition and Learning from Observation, Self-managed Systems, amongst others, are joint together resulting in a global fully integrated architecture for self-organizing scheduling systems.

Abstract
Power systems have been through deep changes, with their operation in the scope of competitive electricity markets (EM) and the increasingly intensive use of renewable energy sources and distributed generation. This requires new business models able to cope with the new opportunities. Virtual Power Players (VPPs) are a new player type which allows aggregating a diversity of players (distribution Generation, storage units, electrical vehicles, and consumers) to participate in the markets and to provide a set of new services promoting generation and consumption efficiency and to improving players’ benefits. A major task of VPPs is the remuneration of generation and of the services (e.g. market operation costs, and energy reserves) as well as charging energy consumption. This PhD research will contribute by developing fair and strategic remuneration and tariff methodologies, able to allow efficient VPP operation and VPP goals accomplishment in EM. © Springer International Publishing AG 2018.
