The study in this article makes a case for a wireless sensor network (WSN) as a means of efficiently managing the energy consumption at each node.

Ahmed, Z., Afaqui, N., & Humayan, O. (2019). Detection and prevention of DDoS attacks on software defined networks controllers for smart grid. International Journal of Computer Applications, 975, 8887.
The study in this article describes how software-defined networks offer advantages of centralized management, but that a high risk of denial of service attacks can occur, resulting in a single point of failure. The authors propose a distributed approach using blockchain to detect and prevent such attacks.
