The first extensive reference on these important techniques
The restructuring of the electric utility industry has createdthe need for a mechanism that can effectively coordinate thevarious entities in a power market, enabling them to communicateefficiently and perform at an optimal level. Communication andControl in Electric Power Systems, the first resource toaddress its subject in an extended format, introduces parallel anddistributed processing techniques as a compelling solution to thiscritical problem.
Drawing on their years of experience in the industry, MohammadShahidehpour and Yaoyu Wang deliver comprehensive coverage ofparallel and distributed processing techniques with a focus onpower system optimization, control, and communication. The authorsbegin with theoretical background and an overview of theincreasingly deregulated power market, then move quickly into thepractical applications and implementations of these pivotaltechniques.
Chapters include:
* Integrated Control Center Information
* Parallel and Distributed Computation of Power Systems
* Common Information Model and Middleware for Integration
* Online Distributed Security Assessment and Control
* Integration, Control, and Operation of DistributedGeneration
* Agent Theory and Power Systems Management
* e-Commerce of Electricity
A ready resource for both students and practitioners,Communication and Control in Electric Power Systems provesan ideal textbook for first-year graduate students in powerengineering with an interest in computer communication systems andcontrol center design. Designers, operators, planners, andresearchers will likewise appreciate its unique contribution to theprofessional literature.
