Computing Community Consortium Blog

The goal of the Computing Community Consortium (CCC) is to catalyze the computing research community to debate longer range, more audacious research challenges; to build consensus around research visions; to evolve the most promising visions toward clearly defined initiatives; and to work with the funding organizations to move challenges and visions toward funding initiatives. The purpose of this blog is to provide a more immediate, online mechanism for dissemination of visioning concepts and community discussion/debate about them.

Vehicle-to-Grid Technology and SmartGeo: A Computing Research in Action Showcase

August 14th, 2013 / in CCC / by Kenneth Hines

In the fall of 2012, the Computing Community Consortium launched its “Computing Research in Action” series in partnership with Patrick Sammon (Story Center Productions), Executive Producer of Codebreaker, the award-winning film about Alan Turing. We’ve received several submissions since last fall and have produced two segments in the series. The first segment features Vehicle-to-Grid (V2G) technology at the University of Delaware with Fouad Kiamilev (Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering) and his team of researchers. With a fleet of MINI Coopers donated to the University by BMW, Fouad and his team of researchers demonstrate how V2G technology can facilitate power from a parked electric vehicle to send stored energy back to the grid into power markets. V2G […]
