This paper presents summaries of five research and development activities in intelligent distributed simulation and control of power plants which were presented in a panel session of the same name at the IEEE Power Engineering Society Winter Meeting on February 6, 1997 in New York City. Each of the panelists discussed methods of how they have incorporated intelligent systems techniques into their research and development efforts in power plant control. The panel was organized by the Working Group on Intelligent Methods in Station Control, Station Control Subcommittee, and the Energy Development and Power Generation Committee of the IEEE Power Engineering Society. Index Terms-Control room evolution, instrumentation and control, intelligent control, power plant automation, real-time monitoring.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
