SUMMARY
The LAMP project aims to meet the need for the autonomic management of power distribution through applying reinforcement learning techniques to the coordination of agent-managed micro-grids.
In particular, LAMP will apply autonomic management techniques for inter-agent collaboration at multiple levels of the power distribution hierarchy. A specific research focus of LAMP is the understanding of the limits of self-organising and learning based-techniques in an application domain subject to widely varying supply and demand and in which guaranteed quality-of-service agreements must still be maintained.

SOLUTIONS
- Investigating the design of algorithms to support effective autonomic/self management of community-based micro grids capable of offering specific quality-of-service guarantees
- Using Distributed W-Learning (DWL) technology as the basis of autonomic management
- Designing extensions or adaptations to DWL to address issues arising from the study of DWL in community-based micro grids
