Mobile Agent Software Applied in Maintenance Scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
The deregulation in power systems brings some new issues in equipment maintenance scheduling where more coordination and communication among different entities is required. In this paper, the mobile agent software is applied in the facility maintenance scheduling in deregulated power systems environment. In the given example, the problem is de-coupled into a master problem and a sub-problem using Benders decomposition. The two problems are solved at the GENCO and the ISO respectively, and the mobile agent takes care of the communication and coordination between these two problem-solving processes.
