Smart grids may be characterized as the amalgamation of electrical grids, communication networks, specialized hardware, and computational intelligence (algorithms). This integration aims to oversee, regulate, and coordinate the generation, distribution, storage, and utilization of energy. Indeed, smart grid technologies have the potential to facilitate the distribution of substantial quantities of power generated from renewable sources. For this purpose, a comprehensive modeling approach is employed to simplify and enhance the feasibility of the task. It introduces a highly intricate system where modeling the components and relationships between entities proves challenging. Optimal energy management is necessary in this case. This paper provides a summary of an investigation into the modeling and optimal management of smart grids. In fact, this work allows a discussion of a hybrid system. Then we briefly introduce the domain of conceptual modeling within the enterprise.

This study explores the dynamic relationship between sustainability, diversity, and inclusion within library contexts amidst the Digital Era. Conducted in May 2024 across various schools in Anambra State, Nigeria, the research targeted library users to assess their perspectives on sustainable practices and diversity strategies. Utilizing an easily accessible questionnaire deployed via Google Forms, data on sustainable initiatives and diversity measures were collected. Analysis conducted using SPSS included descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, ANOVA, and the Tukey post hoc test. Results reveal significant demographic variations in the effectiveness of diversity enhancement strategies, emphasizing the pivotal role of age, occupation, educational background, and gender in shaping library practices. The findings underscore the necessity of tailored interventions to promote sustainability and inclusivity in libraries, especially in the digital age where diverse perspectives and equitable access to information are crucial. Understanding the nuanced interplay between demographic factors and strategic initiatives allows libraries to better address the evolving needs of their communities, fostering environments that are both sustainable and inclusive.
