Summary on Grant Application Form
The research programme will use new object oriented technology to take a radical look at the modelling and algorithms of power systems analysis and control. Object oriented techniques will be used throughout, starting with an analysis phase to identify basic object class, hierarchies, attributes and methods. The object oriented approach will then enable the incremental enhancements of the model structure to provide increasing level of detail, complexity and functionality in the design of a number of object oriented power systems applications. The resulting specification will be implemented and evaluated using object oriented programming and datebase tools. The proposed wide ranging approach will enable a completely fresh look at power systems modelling. The main benefit of the project will be the definition of an object class library for power systems that will form the basis of an industry standard model. The architecture of the object oriented approach will provide an infrastructure that will have demonstrable benefits for adaptability and portability of applications and their integration. This will lead to a much greater timeliness and efficiency for applications research and development within the power systems industry.
