Such scenario urges for standardization of inter and intra processes communication and data exchange. In this work we propose a solution for seamless Meter Data Management (MDM) integration with Control Center structures through Common Information Model (CIM). The solution is implemented in form of a wrapper that adopts messages (i.e. payloads) to the standard requested form. The proposed solution has been verified using a simulation framework which emulates regular control and data.}, keywords = {monitoring and control, system level modeling, virtual power plants}, doi = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/EESMS.2010.5634169}, author = {Vukmirovi{\'c}, Srdjan and Lukovi{\'c}, Slobodan and Erdeljan, Aleksandar and Kuli{\'c}, Filip} } @conference {102.LuKaMuBo09, title = {Functional requirements of embedded systems for monitoring and control structure of Virtual Power Plants}, booktitle = {Proceedings of the 2009 IEEE Workshop on Environmental, Energy, and Structural Monitoring Systems}, year = {2009}, month = {September}, address = {Crema, Italy}, abstract = {Efficient integration of distributed renewable generation into a reliable single entity in technical and commercial terms is one of key issues for successful realization of smart-grids. The novel concept of Virtual Power Plants (VPP) emerges to be promising response to these needs. ICT is the enabling technology for VPP implementation. In fact, an efficient monitoring and control system coupled with appropriate communication structure must be designed in a scalable and modular way so that full interoperability among components of the system is achieved. On top of that, Control Center applications take care of power flow optimization (production, consumption, ancillary services) and high-level applications (e.g. energy trading, Demand Side Management etc.). In this work we focus on functional requirements for realization of such concept by means of embedded systems.}, keywords = {monitoring and control, system level modeling, virtual power plants}, doi = {http://dx.doi.org/10.1109/EESMS.2009.5341320}, author = {Lukovi{\'c}, Slobodan and Kaitovi{\'c}, Igor and Mura, Marcello and Bondi, Umberto} }
