Intelligent management experience on efficient electric power system

Description

Electric power system is one of the most critical and strategic infrastructures of industrial societies. Nowadays, it is necessary the modernization and automation of the electric power grid to increase energy efficiency, reduce emissions, and transit to renewable energy. Power utilities face the challenge of using information and communication networks more effectively to manage the demand, generation, transmission, and distribution of their commodity services. Communication network constitutes the core of the electric system automation applications, the design of a cost-effective, and reliable network architecture is crucial. To resolve this difficulty in this work we study the integration of advanced artificial intelligence technology into existing network management system. This work focuses on an intelligent framework and a language for formalizing knowledge management descriptions and combining them with existing OSI management model. We have normalized the knowledge management base necessary to manage the current resources in the telecommunication networks. Intelligent agents learn the normal behaviour of each measurement variable and combine the intelligent knowledge for the management of the network resources. We present an analysis of corporate network management requirements and technologies, together with our implementation experience with the development of an integrated management system for a company network.
