This book provides a thorough treatment of privacy and security issues for researchers in the fields of smart grids, engineering, and computer science. It presents comprehensive insight to understanding the big picture of privacy and security challenges in both physical and information aspects of smart grids. The authors utilize an advanced interdisciplinary approach to address the existing security and privacy issues and propose legitimate countermeasures for each of them in the standpoint of both computing and electrical engineering. The proposed methods are theoretically proofed by...

This book explains how mathematics can be utilized to provide efficient techniques for implementing effective coverage, deployment, transmission, data processing, signal processing, and data protection within distributed sensor networks.

The contributors consider the influential networks including power and energy networks, transportation networks, and social networks. The second part offers solutions to performance and security challenges of developing interdependent networks in terms of networked control systems, scalable computation platforms, and dynamic social networks.
