Power system restoration: a literature review from 2006 to 2016

Abstract: Power system restoration has attracted more attention and made great progress recently. Research progress of the power system restoration from 2006 to 2016 is reviewed in this paper, including black-start, network reconfiguration and load restoration. Some emerging methods and key techniques are also discussed in the context of the integration of variable renewable energy and development of the smart grid. There is a long way to go to achieve automatic self-healing in bulk power systems because of its extreme complexity. However, rapidly developing artificial intelligence technology will eventually enable the step-by-step dynamic decision-making based on the situation awareness of supervisory control and data acquisition systems (SCADA) and wide area measurement systems (WAMS) in the near future.

Controlling uncertainty: a review of human behavior in complex dynamic environments.

Abstract: Complex dynamic control (CDC) tasks are a type of problem-solving environment used for examining many cognitive activities (e.g., attention, control, decision making, hypothesis testing, implicit learning, memory, monitoring, planning, and problem solving). Because of their popularity, there have been many findings from diverse domains of research (economics, engineering, ergonomics, human-computer interaction, management, psychology), but they remain largely disconnected from each other. The objective of this article is to review theoretical developments and empirical work on CDC tasks, and to introduce a novel framework (monitoring and control framework) as a tool for integrating theory and findings. The main thesis of the monitoring and control framework is that CDC tasks are characteristically uncertain environments, and subjective judgments of uncertainty guide the way in which monitoring and control behaviors attempt to reduce it. The article concludes by discussing new insights into continuing debates and future directions for research on CDC tasks.

Cooperative Collision Warning Systems: Concept Definition and Experimental Implementation

Abstract: The concept of cooperative collision warning (CCW) systems is introduced and explained, followed by presentation of experimental results showing the performance of a first prototype CCW system. The CCW concept provides warnings or situation awareness displays to drivers based on information about the motions of neighboring vehicles obtained by wireless communications from those vehicles, without use of any ranging sensors. This has the advantages of a potentially inexpensive complement of onboard vehicle equipment (compared to ranging sensors that could provide 360 degree coverage), as well as providing information from vehicles that may be occluded from direct line of sight to the approaching vehicle. The CCW concept has been tested on a fleet of five prototype vehicles, supporting a variety of safety services (forward collision warning, blind spot and lane change situation awareness and several modes of intersection threat assessment). The performance of the vehicle position estimation and wireless communication subsystems are demonstrated using samples of experimental data from test sites with both good and bad GPS signal availability.
