Rmi Based Distributed Model for Multi–area Power System On–line Economic Load Dispatch

The main objective of this paper is to construct a distributed environment through which the economic load dispatch solutions of multi-area power systems can be monitored and controlled. A single-server/multi-client architecture which enables the neighboring power systems to access the remote economic load dispatch server (ELD) at any time with their respective data and to get the economic load dispatch solutions from the remote server has been proposed. An RMI (Remote Method Invocation) based distributed environment has been implemented in such a way that for every specific period of time, the remote server obtains the system data simultaneously from the neighboring power systems which are the clients registered with the remote ELD server and the optimized economic load dispatch solutions with power loss from the server have been sent back to the respective clients. The economic load dispatch server creates a new thread of control for every client’s request and hence complete distributed environment is exploited.
