Abstract:
The need for improving the operation and control of infrastructure
systems has created a demand on optimization methods applicable in the
area of complex sociotechnical systems operated by a multitude of
actors in a setting of decentralized decision making. This paper
briefly presents main classes of optimization models applied in PSE
system operation, explores their applicability in infrastructure
system operation and stresses the importance of multi-level
optimization and multi-agent model predictive control.
