The optimal power flow based on available transfer capability proposed for contingent power systems. Generally, in power systems cost is the main objective. But in some areas cost is less importance such as under an emergency state of partial blackout. At that time transmission security is main objective. So, for transmission security, ATC is very useful. Maximizing ATC implies to reduce the pr...

importance of security and sense of peace is a one of the most important factors of urban environment. therefore, the necessity of security in urban spaces has caused the emergence of authentic theories like defensible spaces and crime prevention through environment design (cpted)*. in this paper, various literatures related to defensible space theories have been reviewed and the related keywor...

As part of the smart grid development, more and more technologies are developed and deployed on the power grid to enhance the system reliability. A primary purpose of the smart grid is to significantly increase the capability of computer-based remote control and automation. As a result, the level of connectivity has become much higher, and cyber security also becomes a potential threat to the c...

The importance of preventing the voltage collapse is gaining importance due to increase in dependency on the use of electricity. This has compelled the utilities to maintain high system reliability. The evaluation of a power systems ability to withstand dangerous contingencies and to survive to a normal or acceptable operating point is a prerequisite for security analysis. Fast and accurate sec...

The Advanced Encryption Standard is used in many embedded devices to provide security. In the last years, several researchers have proposed to enhance general-purpose processors with custom instructions to increase the efficiency of cryptographic algorithms. In this work we have evaluated the impact of such instruction set extensions on the implementation security of AES. We have compared sever...
