Introduction

The program is focusing on developing methods for evaluating ICT systems for power system management. The core of these methods combine system and enterprise architecture modeling with statistical modeling in terms of Bayesian networks of dependencies among system properties and behavior. In addition, more traditional (non-statistical) systems analysis approaches are also used and developed to some extent within the projects.

Research projects

  Modifiability of technical support systems

The project is aimed providing IT-decision makers with decision support for enhanced IT maintenance. Specifically this project focuses on devising support for assessment of system modifiability.
  IT Governance of Technical Support Systems

This project aims at clarifying how the IT organization should be designed for the managment of technical support systems.
  Requirements on substation communication

This project studies the protocols and data models used within substation communication.
  Automatic Meter Reading for Distribution System Operation and Maintenance

This project focuses on how automatic meter reader systems can be efficiently managmed and used.
  System security in technical support systems integration

This project deals with the security threats that arise when technical support systems, e.g. SCADA, EMS, DMS, are increasingly integrated into utility-wide enterprise architecture.
  Interoperability of technical support systems

Today systems are increasingly integrated into utility-wide enterprise architecture. This project aims at developing a method for predicting the probability that two different systems will be able work togeather as intended when integrated.
  ICT Impact on Controllability and Observability for Active Distribution Networks

In the near future distribution grid operators will face new challenges and requirements for control of their system. Due to the integration of distributed energy resources into the distribution grid, the former paradigm of uni‐directional flow of p
