| Description | In this paper, we describe the first stages of implementation of a multi-agent system for simulation and analysis of an electrical power network. The communication among the defined agents is based on standards in multi-agent systems~--~the communication protocols CORBA (Common Object Request Broker Architecture) and KQML (Knowledge Query and Manipulation Language). The system itself economizes the open source implementation of the protocols. The whole system is able to perform an active simulation of the energy flow in a power system and its visualization. Even at the beginnings of the implementation process, we take into account possible future replacement of any particular agent with an on-line power equipment monitoring facility (ad-hoc sensors), which allows to monitor the whole power system in real time. |
