FEH3240 Information Modeling with Application to Power Systems 6.0 credits

The course consists of a series of seminars at which selected parts of the literature are presented and discussed. In addition, the course consists of a modeling assignment, a information exchange assignment finally the  development of a research plan. Completion of all fours parts of the course are mandatory for passing the course.

After completing the course, the participants should be able to:

·         Describe and apply fundamental information modeling concepts, and relate these to industry standard languages, such as UML.

·         Apply tools, such as Protege, for creation of system ontologies, and using these to capture semantically valid models

·         Apply tools for serialisation of information models to enable data exchange.

·         Perform modeling of typical power system topologies for static model exchange.

Identify topics within power system control requiring  information exchange beyond what is currently developed.

Admitted to PhD program at KTH.

The following literature is mandatory reading, and in addition a list of research papers will be added as additional reading for preparation of Research plan assignment.

If the course is discontinued, students may request to be examined during the following two academic years.

• EXA1 - Examination, 6.0 credits, grading scale: P, F

Based on recommendation from KTH’s coordinator for disabilities, the examiner will decide how to adapt an examination for students with documented disability.

The examiner may apply another examination format when re-examining individual students.

Complete all four course components with a passing grade.
