Expansion of a Control Center System: Emergency and Backup Setups
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper presents the findings of part of a study that involves formulating an optimal development plan for the upgrading, expansion and replacement of the supervisory control and data acquisition, energy management systems (SCADA/EMS) systems and associated telecommunication networks for the efficient operation of the Kuwait Power System. This paper deals specifically with designs that are proposed for the expansion of an electrical control centers system. The objectives of this expansion are to increase operational security and provide a backup for the SCADA systems. Emergency and multi-site setups are proposed to support the operational security and SCADA systems backup, respectively. The criteria for reducing expenditure and enhancing reliability of a particular setup are the systems and subsystems compatibility and geographical locations. Key-Words: District Control Center, EMS, National Control Center, reliability, SCADA, security.

Presenting a three-objective model in location-allocation problems using combinational interval full-ranking and maximal covering with backup model
Covering models have found many applications in a wide variety of real-world problems; nevertheless, some assumptions of covering models are not realistic enough. Accordingly, a general approach would not be able to answer the needs of encountering varied aspects of real-world considerations. Assumptions like the unavailability of servers, uncertainty, and evaluating more factors at the same ti...
متن کاملAn economic production model for deteriorating items and time dependent demand with rework and multiple production setups
Recently, much emphasis has given to study the control and maintenance of production inventories of the deteriorating items. Rework is one of the main issues in reverse logistic and green supply chain, since it can reduce production cost and the environmental problem. Many researchers have focused on developing rework model, but few of them have developed model for deteriorating items. Due to t...
متن کاملCost-Efficient Data Backup for Data Center Networks against {\epsilon}-Time Early Warning Disaster
Data backup in data center networks (DCNs) is critical to minimize the data loss under disaster. This paper considers the cost-efficient data backup for DCNs against a disaster with ε early warning time. Given geo-distributed DCNs and such a ε-time early warning disaster, we investigate the issue of how to back up the data in DCN nodes under risk to other safe DCN nodes within the ε early warni...
متن کاملFuzzy PD Cascade Controller Design for Ball and Beam System Based on an Improved ARO Technique
The ball and beam system is one of the most popular laboratory setups for control education. In this paper, we design a fuzzy PD cascade controller for a ball and beam system using Asexual Reproduction Optimization (ARO) technique. The ball & beam system consists of a servo motor, a grooved beam, and a rolling ball. This system utilizes a servo motor to control ball’s position on the beam. Chan...
متن کاملThe Status of Nitric Oxide and its Backup, Heme Oxygenase 1, in Thromboangiitis Obliterans
Background: Until recently, a gene polymorphism in the promoter region of endothelial nitric oxide synthase has been suggested as a risk factor for thromboangiitis obliterans (TAO) development. The aim of this study was to compare the metabolites of nitric oxide (NO) and its backup, heme-oxygenase-1 (HMOX1), between TAO patients and those of a smoking control group matched by race, age, sex, an...
