Co-Simulation of IP Network Models in the Smart Grids Context, using a DEVS-based Platform
نویسندگان
چکیده
We are interested in the modeling and simulation of the IP networks as the communication layer for smart grids. In this context, a network can involve many different technologies, and the available models corresponding to these technologies may be implemented in different simulation software. As a result, thanks to their own models libraries, different IP network simulators can be complementary. However, these simulators are not all interoperable with each other, and therefore can not be yet all integrated in a same cosimulation. Moreover, the network simulators have to interact with the other simulators corresponding to other areas of expertise involved in the smart grids simulations. Integrating this requires to consider the multi-formalism problems. Our approach is to integrate IP network simulators to the DEVS-based co-simulation platform MECSYCO (formely named AA4MM). Thanks to this approach, different network simulators can exchange simulated IP packets. In this paper, we illustrate how we integrated the NS-3 simulator into MECSYCO.

In this paper, a self-healing approach for smart distribution network is presented based on Graph theory and cut sets. In the proposed Graph theory based approach, the upstream grid and all the existing microgrids are modeled as a common node after fault occurrence. Thereafter, the maneuvering lines which are in the cut sets are selected as the recovery path for alternatives networks by making ...
