Abstract

Creating an autonomous, self-healing electrical grid is one of the most important challenges facing electric-energy providers. Such a system, known as the “smart grid,” must interweave a multitude of systems, both software and hardware, in order to form a complete solution that is capable of meeting the requirements outlined by the United States Department of Energy (DOE). According to the DOE [LSC05], “It is a colossal task. But it is a task that must be done.”
