Abstract

Multi-agent systems have already proven to be useful for modelling processes in distributed environments, such as an electricity distribution network. The autonomous design of each network element and its capabilities allows to adapt the model to any situation and the results can be used for monitoring as well as real time control. One disadvantage of such models lies in a seeming inability to evaluate global analytical computations. In this paper, we show how such computations can be performed within a power network simulation system by means of purely local interactions and an iterative communication flow. The results are then compared to a standard analytical approach.
