Context-Aware Middleware Architectural Framework for Intelligent Smart Grid Data Management

The new advanced power grids (smart grids) are essential implementation for efficient power supply, utilization, and communication systems. It is challenging to tackle with a vast number of diversified user requests in the current grid system. The Context aware middleware provides considerable improvement to the smart grid data management and services that utilize two-way communication and computing. The design principle of a context aware middleware to integrate with smart grid system places a crucial role due to its heterogeneous services. The paper proposes a context aware architectural framework integrated with the smart grid communications infrastructure for efficient data processing, which leads to sustainability and stability. This paper also describes Context aware middleware architecture for smart grid to manage smart home, and layered conceptual model and design issues with related evaluation process.
