Abstract :
Distributed energy management systems (EMS) open up a host of alternative design options. Simulation plays an important role in evaluating performance and in comparing alternative designs. Currently all the proposed distributed EMSs are local area network (LAN)-based. A LAN simulator, LANSIM, has been developed. To illustrate the application of LANSIM, comparisons are made with different distributed EMS configurations, different LAN technologies (Ethernet and FDDI), and different Ethernet implementations
