Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are provided for regulating an amount of power on a power grid using a datacenter. This allows demand to be more closely brought into alignment with supply. For example, when supply exceeds demand by a predetermined level, the datacenter may increase consumption, causing demand to increase, and when demand exceeds supply and/or comes within a predetermined threshold of supply, the datacenter may decrease consumption, causing demand to decrease. In this way, the datacenter can be utilized as a regulatory tool on the grid. It may be appreciated that given the technology used by and/or operations performed by datacenters, datacenters are uniquely situated to achieve these ends as compared to other (large) energy consumers, such as manufacturing facilities that cannot shift around and/or shut-down operations swiftly.

Abstract: Identifying that one or more badges in a set of a plurality of badges indicates that an individual having the set of a plurality of badges meets certain requirements in terms of one or more of skills, training, attributes, or qualifications. The method includes identifying a set of a plurality of badges for an individual. The method further includes identifying evaluation criteria, the evaluation criteria comprising criteria for evaluating a plurality of badges, that when satisfied, indicates that an individual meets certain requirements. The method further includes comparing the set of the plurality of badges to the evaluation criteria.

Abstract: Sending alerts regarding events related to badges. A method includes receiving a subscription for an entity to receive alerts regarding one or more badges or one or more individuals as it relates to the one or more individuals receiving or maintaining badges. The one or more badges signify one or more of skills, training, attributes, or qualifications of individuals who receive them. The method further includes determining that an event has occurred with respect to the one or more badges or one or more individuals. As a result, the method further includes notifying the entity of the event.

Abstract: Authenticating a badge. The badge represents at least one of skills, training, attributes, or qualifications of an individual. The method includes at a trustworthy verifier, accessing a badge image identified by a user. The method further includes at the trustworthy verifier, accessing policy identified by the user. The method further includes determining that the badge identified by the user is compliant with the policy by determining that the badge complies with the policy identified by the user. As a result of determining that the badge is compliant with the policy, the method further includes causing an indicator to be displayed in a trustworthy way to indicate to the user that the purported badge is compliant with the policy.
