Abstract :
A serial architecture was developed which would run on a single processor and perform the functions of state estimation, unit dispatch, and load-flow. Node profiling was done on the serial architecture to check for the total time spent in calculations, input/output (I/O) communications, and internode communication. Different parallel architectures were developed and tested which also performed the functions of state estimation, unit dispatch, and load-flow. Node profiling was done on these parallel architectures to check for the total time spent in calculations, I/O communications, and internode communication. Timing analysis revealed that some of these parallel architectures provided increases in speed and efficiency
