Abstract :
Summary form only given. The author provides a general overview and background of the model exchange problem and the events leading to the verbal endorsement by the CPSM and DEWG. The resulting endorsement, when it occurred, and the resulting impact of the endorsement are described. The issues encountered during implementation of the IEEE SDF are described and the resolutions proposed are explained. The final resolution reached at the CPSM Forum in February 1999 is described. The follow-up events are explained to further enforce the resolutions. Each of the implementation projects using the IEEE SDF for model exchange are described. These include software tools created by Incrementation Systems, ABB, and PsyCor. Using these implementations, the IEEE SDF format will allow the CIM to be modeled and exchanged for most of the Eastern Interconnection
