| | 6 | The goal of this project is to develop a tool that will allow us to simulate a distributed [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smart_grid smart grid] - an emerging modern electrical grid that incorporates technology to gather and use information about the elements in the grid to improve efficiency and reliability. |
| | 7 | |
| | 8 | To achieve this we hope to create a library to extend the functionality of Mathworks's [http://www.mathworks.com/products/simulink/ Simulink], a well known software for modeling systems. This library would allow the study of a smart grid under non-ideal conditions through the safety of a simulation. The distribution of the elements would allow us to study the communication between these simulated elements - one of the most important features of the smart grid - using a resource like [http://www.winlab.rutgers.edu/docs/focus/ORBIT.html ORBIT]. |
