This article focuses the analysis on a static synchronous compensator (STATCOM) that operates simultaneously providing reactive power and several current harmonics of different frequencies (active power filter or active ...

Currently, short communication channels are growing up due to the huge increase in the number of smartphones and online social networks users. This growth attracts malicious campaigns, such as spam campaigns, that are a ...

In the same manner that Online Social Networks (OSN) usage increases, non-legitimate campaigns over these types of web services are growing. This is the reason why signi cant number of users are affected by social spam ...

Process Control Systems (PCSs) are the operat-ing core of Critical Infrastructures (CIs). As such, anomalydetection has been an active research field to ensure CInormal operation. Previous ...

This paper presents the implementation of a refer-ence architecture for Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) to supportCondition Based Maintenance (CBM) of industrial assets. The article focuses on describing how the MANTIS ...

The benefits of using Power Electronics Based DC Distribution Systems in electrically propelled vessels are well known. However, some aspects must be deeply analyzed to guarantee a safe, robust and stable system by design. ...

In 1990s, industry demanded the interconnection of corporate and production networks. Thus, Industrial Control Systems (ICSs) evolved from 1970s proprietary and close hardware and software to nowadays Commercial Off-The-Shelf ...

With the increasing demand for electric vehicles, the requirements of the market are changing ever faster. Therefore, there is a need to improve the electric car’s design time, where simulations could be an appropriate ...

This paper focuses on the design of a charging unit for an electric vehicle fast charging station. With this purpose, in first place, different solutions that exist for fast charging stations are described through a brief ...

In the last years, cyber security of Industrial Control Systems (ICSs) has become an important issue due to the discovery of sophisticated malware that by attacking Critical Infrastructures, could cause catastrophic safety ...

Industrial environments have vastly changed sincethe conception of initial primitive and isolated networks. Thecurrent full interconnection paradigm, where connectivity be-tween different devices and the Internet has become ...

The title of this editorial reflects an effort in creating a unique research forum, to harbor fundamental as well as review articles, meeting the forefront of this scientific field. The Guest Editors sought to attract ...

Industrial Networks (INs) are widespread environments where heterogeneous devices collaborate to control and monitor physical processes. Some of the controlled processes belong to Critical Infrastructures (CIs), and, as ...

The software of elevators requires maintenance over several years to deal with new functionality, correction of bugs or legislation changes. To automatically validate this software, test oracles are necessary. A typical ...

This paper presents a review of advanced architectures based on the partial power processing concept, whose main objective is to achieve a reduction of the power processed by the converter. If the power processed by the ...

Due to the evolution of the last decades actual society is not focused exclusively in production anymore and people, safety and the environment preservation have become necessary issues in any aspect of the everyday living. ...
