Abstract

Power systems have grown recently in size and complexity to unprecedented levels. This means that planning and operation of power systems can not be made possible without the aid of information technology tools and instruments. Even small systems need such aid because of the complexity factor. On the other hand, new trends have recently emerged to solve the problems arising from increased size of power systems. These trends are related to the market structure, legal, and business issues. Other trends also cover technological developments, and environmental issues. Moreover, power systems have special characteristics and features that are not duplicated in other infrastructures. All these issues confirm the need for special information technology tools and instruments which aid in planning and operation of power systems.
