The Amsterdam Sensor Lab is part of the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences (AUAS) and its goal is to develop application specific sensor systems for applied research. In order to (anonymously) measure, for instance, traffic without influencing people’s behaviour, a pressure sensing sub-tile is …

Grotere vloten elektrische voertuigen tegelijk laden. Dat is nog een probleem. Drie bedrijven gingen de uitdaging aan om Albert Heijn en Deudekom van oplossingen te voorzien

This paper analyses the effect of two new developments: electrification and ‘free floating’ car sharing and their impact on public space. Contrary to station based shared cars, free floating cars do not have dedicated parking or charging stations. They therefore park at public parking spots and utilize …

The mass adoption of Electric Vehicles (EVs) might raise pressure on the power system, especially during peak hours. Therefore, there is a need for delayed charging. However, to optimize the charging system, the progression of charging from an empty battery until a full battery of the EVs based on realworld …

Er is regelmatig discussie in Nederland rond het laadgedrag van Plug in Hybride Elektrische Voertuigen (PHEV’s) in vergelijking met full electric voertuigen (FEV’s). Veelal gaat het hierbij om de vraag in hoeverre fors-gesubsidieerde PHEV’s veel elektrisch laden en daadwerkelijk veel elektrische kilometers …

The cloud has become an essential part of our daily lives. We use it to store our documents (Dropbox), to stream our music and films (Spotify and Netflix) and without giving it any thought, we use it to work on documents in the cloud (Google Docs).

In this paper we present a methodology to measure the energy consumption of software. The methodology is based on detailed monitoring of power usage of hardware components. We explain our lab setup after which we apply the methodology to different pieces of DNS resolver software. Through this case study …

Since the European Union wants to reduce the oil dependence of the transportation system, the uptake of alternative vehicle technologies are stimulated in the member states. In the Netherlands, stimulation is already largely implemented in the form of a comprehensive charging infrastructure. This infrastructure …
