This paper reports on some practical work undertaken to assess the use of a formalised configuration language to support industrial system development and evolution. The language and supporting analysis and system generation tools are the main result of the PROTEUS1 project. The work described is based on practical application of the PROTEUS approach in Stentofon, a Norwegian industrial company...

This paper reviews the on-going study at Florida Power and Light Company to identify, evaluate and pursue generation technologies that best fit our future needs. Although nuclear and alternate technologies are reviewed, the primary emphasis is the utilization of coal in an acceptable form.

Türkiye’de elektrik piyasasının serbestleştirilmesi adına yapılan önemli reformlardan biri kamu varlıklarının özelleştirilerek devletin zamanla piyasadan çekilmesidir. Bu çalışmada mülkiyetindeki üretim santrallerinin özelleştirilme sürecini planlayan analitik bir yaklaşım sunulmaktadır. Özelleştirme süreci kapasite azaltımı olarak ele alınmış ve Kapasite Azaltım Planlama Modeli geliştirilmişti...

How and why the empathy with heroes that has traditionally been utilized by movies has been gradually overtaken by...

Load forecasting has become one of the major areas of research in electrical engineering and is an important problem in operation and planning of electric power generation. Load forecasting is the technique for prediction of electrical load. STLF (Short term load forecast) is essential for Power system planning. In a deregulated market it is much need for a generating company to know about the ...
