	abstract = {Energy consumption can be to some extent steered not only in time but in special cases in space as well. This mostly concerns electric vehicles (EV) charging. In this work we present conceptual solution of a {\textquoteleft}GeoGreen Cell{\textquoteright} developed in scope of an international project {\textendash} Ge(o)Green. The main purpose of such an aggregation is to efficiently coordinate. EV charging with respect to price of energy both in time and space. Even though massive acceptance of EVs seems far, there is an emerging need for conceptual solutions and reference models of solutions for their seamless integration into energy system in particular in urban areas. In fact, system level models of the supporting ICT architecture, including structural and behavioral ones, have been
developed. The models have been verified by means of simulations to assure their correctness. Scheduling optimization algorithms have been created and the system has been validated by means of system-level simulations.},

The main objective of the STRATOS project was the development of an open ICT hardware-software infrastructure enabling the acquisition of geo-referenced information on soil and terrain parameters. In more detail, STRATOS project target was to develop and demonstrate new functions enabled by ISOBUS technology (ISO 11783) that support a substantial improvement of the quality of the farming jobs. In particular the idea is to develop a technology based on ISOBUS compliant, wireless self-powered sensor network for the real time measurement of soil and harvester conditions. In this way, Task Controller (an ICT component defined by ISOBUS specification which supervises actively the farming job performed by the tractor) can optimize the whole tractor and implement operational modes to improve the farming job quality and safety of the overall systems. The project lasted from 1st April, 2011 to31st March, 2013, and this paper reports about the project achievements.},

The VPS has been defined as an aggregation of distributed energy resources, consumers and storages which can operate autonomously, and is presented to the power system as a single unit in technical and commercial terms. The complexity of these critical systems is tackled by means of systems engineering. We have applied our approach in scope of a research project AlpEnergy.},
