TLDR
The security, agility, and robustness/survivability of a large-scale power delivery infrastructure that faces new threats and unanticipated conditions is presented.Abstract:
In this article, we present the security, agility, and robustness/survivability of a large-scale power delivery infrastructure that faces new threats and unanticipated conditions. By way of background, we present a brief overview of the past work on the challenges faced in online parameter estimation and real-time adaptive control of a damaged F-15 aircraft. This work, in part, provided the inspiration and laid the foundation in the 1990s for the flight testing of a fast parameter estimation/modeling and reconfigurable aircraft control system that allowed the F-15 to become self-healing in the face of damaged equipment.read more

Intergrid: A Future Electronic Energy Network?
TL;DR: In this paper, a hierarchical dynamic decoupling of generation, distribution, and consumption by using bidirectional electronic power converters as energy control centers is discussed. But, the authors do not consider the potential for the use of new power electronics technologies in electrical energy generation and consumption.

Control of an Electronically-Coupled Distributed Resource Unit Subsequent to an Islanding Event
TL;DR: In this paper, a new control strategy for islanded (autonomous) operation of an electronically coupled distributed generation (DG) unit and its local load is presented, which utilizes an internal oscillator for frequency control and a voltage feedback signal to regulate the island voltage.

Plug in to grid computing
TL;DR: The ability of grid-enabled systems to interact autonomously is vital for small generators where manned operation is likely to be viable and the ability to monitor the output of embedded generators to be monitored and controlled is vital.
