Abstract :
This study is a summary of Chapter 1, ´Introduction and Rational for Supervisory Systems´ of the IEEE tutorial course, Fundamentals of Supervisory Systems. An overview of supervisory system concepts is provided. Various types of supervisory systems are identified, including SCADA, SCADA/automatic gain control, energy management systems, distribution management systems, load management systems, and automatic meter reading. Some important design and implementation considerations are highlighted.<>
