EJB based component model for distributed load flow monitoring of multi-area power systems

The main objective of this paper is to develop component model architecture for load flow monitoring of multi - area power systems. A component which is based on a single-server serving multiple clients has been proposed enabling all neighboring power systems to have simultaneous access to the remote load flow server for obtaining continuous load flow solutions. An EJB (Enterprise Java Beans) based, distributed environment has been implemented in such a way that each power system client can access the remote load flow EJB server through JNDI (Java Naming and Directory Interface) naming service with its load flow data. The server computes the load flow and it provides the continuous automated load flow solutions to all the registered power system clients. Load flow EJB server inherently creates a new thread of control for every client request and hence a complete component based on distributed environment can be achieved.
