With the continuous development of cloud computing technology, the requirements for intelligent and automated task scheduling are also increasing. To address the demand for more efficient and flexible computations, an enhanced honey badger algorithm (HBA) utilizing two dimensional and three dimensional fractals is introduced.

This paper proposes a hybrid power management strategy for smart grids (SGs) that integrates renewable energy sources (RESs), such as battery energy storage systems (BESS), fuel cells (FCs), wind turbines (WT), and solar photovoltaic (PV). The GGO-AIDINN approach integrates Greylag Goose Optimization (GGO) and an Anti-Interference Dynamic Integral Neural Network (AIDINN) to address high emissions during low renewable energy (RE) availability and rising operational costs from advanced infrastructure. The GGO optimizes resource allocation and energy distribution, maximizing the use of available RE. Meanwhile, AIDINN predicts energy consumption patterns based on weather conditions, improving overall system performance. The proposed GGO-AIDINN model is implemented on MATLAB and evaluated against several existing methods, including Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC), Non-dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm (NSGA-II), and others. Results show the hybrid method achieves significant improvements, with an operational cost of $1328 per MW, emissions of 13.76 kg per MW, and an efficiency of 98.7 %. These outcomes demonstrate that GGO-AIDINN outperforms traditional techniques, offering lower costs, reduced emissions, and enhanced system efficiency. This makes it a superior solution for sustainable power management in SGs incorporating RESs and BESS.

To ensure reliable & resilient operation of a microgrid, efficient voltage and power regulation strategies have to be in place. The instant study proposes the memetic salp swarm algorithm (MSSA) tuned fractional order proportional-integral-derivative (FOPID) control strategy towards improving operational resilience of the grid-connected microgrid, comprising solar panels, wind turbine, battery bank, and AC load, in the backdrop of solar, wind, and load uncertainties besides the eventuality of grid isolation. MATLAB® simulation results, both qualitative and quantitative, ideate effectiveness of recommended control strategy whose novelty lies in synergetic use of MSSA and FOPID, with the tuning competency of MSSA established against grey wolf optimizer (GWO) and particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithms.

In the current fast-changing digital world, distributed networks are under severe threat in terms of security and efficiency. Their decentralized nature and expanding amount of data raise system complexity and vulnerability. At the same time, sustainable computing demands energy-efficient solutions for network operations. This research proposes a Distributed Network Security Framework Based on Blockchain within a Green Computing Framework. It introduces a Dynamic Whale Optimized Adjustable Graph Neural Network (DWO-AGNN) to assess network security. The model leverages blockchain’s decentralized and tamper-proof features, using smart contracts to enhance resilience against cyberattacks. The framework also focuses on reducing the energy footprint of security operations. Key performance metrics include security effectiveness, energy consumption, and throughput. Results show strong performance: availability at 99.0 %, integrity at 96.8 %, and confidentiality at 95.2 %. The system achieves 95.7 Megabits per Second (Mbps) throughput, reduces energy usage from 1.20 to 0.85, and cuts energy costs from $500 to $375. This research demonstrates that blockchain-based models can deliver high security while supporting environmentally responsible computing. The DWO-AGNN offers a practical solution for resilient, energy-efficient distributed networks.

One such revolutionary approach to changing the nano-electronic landscape is integrating reversible logic with quantum dot technology that will replace the conventional complementary metal-oxide semiconductors (CMOS) circuits for ultra-high speed, low density, and energy-efficient digital designs. The implementation of the reversible structure under the most inflexible conditions, as executed by quantum laws, is a highly challenging task. Furthermore, the enormous occupying areas seriously compromise the accuracy of the output in quantum dot circuits. Because of this challenge, quantum circuits can be employed as fundamental building blocks in high-performance digital systems since their implementation has a key impact on overall system performance. This study discusses a paradigm shift in nanoscale digital design by using a 4 × 4 reversible gate that redefines the basis of efficiency and precision. This reversible gate is elaborately used in a reversible full-adder circuit, fully symbolizing the core of minimum area, ultra-low energy consumption, and perfect output accuracy. The proposed reversible circuits have been fully realized using quantum-dot cellular automata technology (QCA), simulated, and verified by the highly reliable tool such as Qiskit IBM and QCADesigner 2.0.3. Furthermore, simulations results demonstrated the superiority of the QCA-based proposed adder, which reduced occupied area by 7.14 %, and cell count by 11.57 %, respectively. This work resolves some problems and opens new boundaries toward the future of digital circuits by addressing the main challenges of stability and pushing the boundaries of reversible logic design.

This paper introduces a novel hybrid optimization framework for Multi-Energy Systems that jointly addresses cost efficiency, uncertainty, and demand-side flexibility. The proposed model uniquely integrates electric and thermal Load Response Plans within a unified structure and incorporates a Negative Risk Limit to explicitly control downside financial exposure under volatile conditions. A key innovation lies in the combination of scenario-based stochastic modeling and robust optimization to manage uncertainties in renewable generation, market prices, and consumer demand. The Flower Pollination Algorithm, a nature-inspired metaheuristic, is employed to efficiently solve the resulting high-dimensional problem. A residential-scale case study, involving photovoltaic panels, wind turbines, combined heat and power, boilers, electric vehicles, thermal storage, and heat pumps, demonstrates the framework’s applicability. Four simulation scenarios assess the individual and combined effects of Load Response Plans and risk constraints. Results indicate that energy purchases from upstream networks are reduced with coordinated load shifting, lowering peak hour procurement by 15–30 % compared to baseline operation. Electric vehicles exhibit active charge/discharge behavior in up to 75 % of daily time slots under joint Load Response Plan and Negative Risk Limit conditions, enhancing flexibility.

Offshore wind turbine gearboxes often experience malfunctions due to harsh environmental conditions, resulting in significant downtime and financial losses. This study presents an innovative early warning system for monitoring gearbox oil temperature using a novel FSTAE-ATT model. The system leverages SCADA data and employs Feature Mode Decomposition (FMD) to enhance feature extraction from gearbox oil temperature measurements. The FSTAE-ATT model integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for spatial feature extraction and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for temporal dependencies, augmented by a self-attention mechanism to highlight critical features. The model's reconstruction error serves as an early warning indicator for gearbox oil temperature anomalies. The effectiveness of the FSTAE-ATT model was validated using real-world data from an offshore wind farm in Yangjiang, Guangdong, China. Comparative analysis with other models, including STAE, STAE-ATT, AE, TAE, and SAE, demonstrated that the FSTAE-ATT model outperforms them with lower RMSE (e.g., 0.003452 for unit #40) and MAE (e.g., 0.002828 for unit #40) metrics. Additionally, significantly earlier warning times (e.g., up to 22 h and 36 min for unit #40), provide substantial lead time for preventative maintenance. This work contributes to advancing offshore wind turbine condition monitoring and fault detection, enhancing the sustainability and profitability of offshore wind energy systems.

This study presents an innovative early warning system for monitoring gearbox oil temperature using a novel FSTAE-ATT model. The system leverages SCADA data and employs Feature Mode Decomposition (FMD) to enhance feature extraction from gearbox oil temperature measurements. The FSTAE-ATT model integrates Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) for spatial feature extraction and Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) networks for temporal dependencies, augmented by a self-attention mechanism to highlight critical features. The model's reconstruction error serves as an early warning indicator for gearbox oil temperature anomalies. The effectiveness of the FSTAE-ATT model was validated using real-world data from an offshore wind farm in Yangjiang, Guangdong, China. Comparative analysis with other models, including STAE, STAE-ATT, AE, TAE, and SAE, demonstrated that the FSTAE-ATT model outperforms them with lower RMSE (e.g., 0.003452 for unit #40) and MAE (e.g., 0.002828 for unit #40) metrics.

The use of renewable power sources is vital for reducing the world’s reliance on limited fossil fuels, reducing the impact on climate and mitigating the losses associated with power transmission. However, renewable sources such as solar power, often suffer from fluctuations in production due to their heavy reliance on weather conditions. This can have a significant impact on their reliability, as well as an impact on the power grid. Nevertheless, these issues could be mitigated by utilizing powerful and robust forecasting models, allowing for more efficient planning and fuller utilization of the produced power. This work explores the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in order to predict the yield of photovoltaic-generated energy. Different artificial neural network architectures are explored, including recurrent neural network (RNN), gated recurrent unit (GRU), and the long short-term memory (LSTM). Additionally, attention mechanism is integrated into the best-performing model to help further improve its performance. To ensure favorable outcomes, an adapted variant of the particle swarm optimization (PSO) is introduced to optimize hyper-parameter settings of each model. Simulations with real-world data showcased promising results while the rigorous statistical analysis confirmed that the observed improvements are statistically significant. The best-performing models were subjected to feature importance analysis to help future endeavors, as well as data collection efforts. The best performing models attained an impressive normalized mean square error (MSE) and coefficient of determination () of 0.007240 and 0.894693, respectively, suggesting strong perspective for real world applications. Nonetheless, the introduction of attention mechanism did not provide further improvements to the best performing model. Lastly, this study confirmed that the modifications made to the baseline PSO strengthened the original approach, as it statistically significantly outperformed other metaheuristics.
