## Information Management for Market Simulation

- John Finney
- ABB, Inc.

## Market Simulation Information Challenges

- Large amount of data: hard to identify errors
- >10,000 buses, >15,000 lines
- > 1000 units
- Data arrives form disparate sources
- WECC Power flows
- Hydro forecasts
- Generation upgrades
- New and ‘better’ data arrives constantly

## Tenets for good information management

- Governance
- Pick a sole leader.
- Establish all business processes – before writing any code!
- Validate business case and ensure adequate funding before beginning implementation
- Agree upon one data model
- Must be independent of any study tool.
- Extensibility is paramount.
- Consider use of existing ‘standards’ first.
- Minimize IT requirements for end-users
- E.g.: No fancy XML without supplying tools for use
- Use of office productivity suites reduces learning curve.
- Don’t forget Versioning and Audit Trails
- Always be able to ‘roll back’ to archived data sets.
- Always be able to find out who changed what when.

## Suggested Architecture

- Admin UI

- Web
- Server

- Client
- Browser

- Firewall

- ‘Official’
- Data Sets

- RDBMS
- (Oracle or
- SQL Server)

- New data

- Approved data sets

- Participant registration
- Data approval
- ‘Bulletin board’ maintenance

## Data Model Choices

- Object vs. Relational
- Relational model more amenable to spreadsheet manipulation
- Object model permits more extensibility
- Recommendation: Relational unless CIM is used
- CIM or not
- CIM is too detailed in transmission details
- CIM is not yet mature enough for generation/economic data
- However, it is the standard for power systems data.
- Recommendation: No CIM at this time (too expensive)
- Format for network data
- PSLF: Facilitates work with WECC, but adds software license costs to users.
- Tables: Vendor independence, but more tools will be written.
- CIM:  Probably too detailed for purpose.

## Fixing the data model

- Small group proposes first draft (starting point)
- 2-3 day workshop with stakeholders to augment and improve
- Validation of completeness w/ simulation program vendors and consultants.
- Revisions as necessary
- Disseminate, vote and approve.

## Emergency Management

- Preparedness (active school shooter)

## Statistics:  Weapons on Campus

- *Source: Violence and Discipline Problems in U.S. Public Schools, 1996-97

## Likelihood of Incidents

- The untimely death of any child is distressing, and the deaths of children in our schools are both shattering and dramatic.  Violence directed at any child in school deserves our attention and our best efforts to prevent any further violence.  But, like any serious endeavor, reducing school violence calls for perspective, not panic.
- The probability that any school age child will die this year from:*
- Any cause (1 in 3,000)
- A traffic accident (1 in 8,000)
- Homicide, away from school (1 in 21,000)
- Suicide, away from school (1 in 28,000)
- Cancers (1 in 33,000)
- Accidental drowning (1 in 73,000)
- Heart disease (1 in 79,000)
- A firearm accident (1 in 200,000)
- Pneumonia or influenza (1 in 250,000)
- Homicide at school (1 in 1,700,000)

**Sources:  These figures were calculated using 1997 values from the U. S. Census Bureau, the U. S. Dept. of Education, the U. S. Dept. of Justice, and the Centers for Disease Control, Injury Mortality Reports.*

- Umetrics Inc., Kinnelon, NJ 07405
- _[www.umetrics.com](http://www.umetrics.com/)_
- Presented at FDA, 28 Nov., 2001

- batch.ppt

## Real Time Quality Control	(Batch monitoring)

**Background**
- Process Analysis Technology (PAT) provides valuable process information.
- New opportunities, to monitor the  **evolution **of the** **process in real time, using PAT + traditional data.
- Necessitates a summarizing (**modeling**) of the data with minimal or no loss of information.
- The resulting model parameters provide an improved interpretation of the process (process knowledge ++).
- Displayed as **batch control charts**

- batch.ppt

## Pharmaceutical Production  -- Batch Processes

- Quality Control ***today*** made after batch completion;
- 	Upsets are found too late, no correction is possible
- _Real Time Quality Control_ made during batch evolution
- 	Upsets found earlier, corrections  possible
- Based on summarizing ***adequate data*** measured on a representative set of ***good*** batches;
- 	**Batch control charts.**
- 	Control limits based on  average batch trace ± 3 provide “6 sigma quality control” potential

- batch.ppt

## Part of a data table of several evolving good batches		Right, Summary of table  control limits

- Bad batch (black) as it is evolving, seen outside the limits
- Deviations are interpreted with Contribution Plots

- Bad batch

- batch.ppt

## Control chart of the culprit variable

- batch.ppt

## Real Time Quality Control	(Batch monitoring)

- Models the evolution of representative good batches
- Take **all **(incl. PAT) data and their correlation into account
- Use control charts for display, with limits computed from traces of good batches
- New batches monitored as they are evolving
- Problems detected and interpreted on the fly
- Culprit variables in problem batches clearly identified
- Quality of the whole batches predicted as it is evolving and at completion- possible 6 sigma control
- Based on multidimensional informative data  measured during the batch evolution   **+**  multivariate analysis

- batch.ppt

## Benefits	      B-SPC; same principles as MSPC

- Multivariate batch modeling
- 	Allows interference and correction as batch is evolving, and prediction of final quality
- Applies to
- 		evolving batches (individual observations),
- 		and whole batches as units
- Results shown as easily interpretable control charts
- Makes batch quality control more reliable, and faster; less scrap, less variability
- Facilitates compliance inspection

**Radiation hardness of sensors**
-  Radiation hard design:
-  Single guard ring
-  3m overhanging metal (1m for inner axial)
-  High resistivity (  26 kcm) bulk
-  Testing of performances of irradiated sensors:
-  Neutron irradiation performed on 5 sensors at UC Davis Irradiation Facility (up 1.4*1014 1MeV eq-n cm-2)
-  Testing performed at Tsukuba University and Purdue University
- As a result of irradiation, sensors are subjected to:
-  increase in leakage current (linearly scaled with the dose)
-  increase in shot noise
-  substrate-type inversion (increase of depletion voltage)
-  increase of voltage operation limit

**Good S/N ratio**  provided by:
-  Single strip  leakage current Ileak 0.98A at T-5C
-  Interstrip capacitance  3pF for Vfd=130V
-  Interstrip resistance 1G at Vbias=300V

**Run IIb, up to 15 fb****-1****: high luminosity environment**

- The primary goal of the CDF RunIIb Project is to enable the detector to fully exploit the physics opportunities available during Tevatron operation through 2008. To fulfill this goal a replacement for the Silicon Micro-Vertex detector is required.

**Production**
-  Sensor delivery will start mid June
-  The three Procurement Institutions (Tsukuba, Fermilab and Kyungpook) will accept the sensors and perform visual inspection and IV test
-  Fermillab will distribute a sub-sample of sensors to the Testing Institutions (Purdue University & UNM) to perform extensive testing
-  Purdue University will carry on the testing on a subsample of irradiated sensors

**Conclusions **
-  **Prototypes performances are satisfactory** **and fulfill the specifications**
-  Leakage current as small as expected
-  Excellent AC coupling capacitors with no pin-holes
-  Interstrip capacitance values as expected
-  Bias resistor as expected
-  **Hamamatsu sensors for CDF RunIIb are radiation hard up to ********=1.4*10****14**** 1MeV eq-n cm****-2**
- Full Depletion Voltage after Irradiation as Expected

## Transcon Routing Options 

- CDM CR workshop
-  February 6, 2002
- Jack Brennan/Joe Hollenberg/Mark Huberdeau/Joe Spelman

## Background

- Due to the probability of a weather constraint not materializing, debates on a wait and see approach verses applying a playbook are relatively common during SPT’s.
- Instances occur when playbook routings are implemented and severe weather does not develop.
- At the time strategic decisions are made accurate demand information is not available because user intent is unknown.
- As recommended from the severe weather review (October 23-27, 2000):          _*Users utilized SPT process to reduce excessive reroutes, particularly on transcontinental flights*_
- New ETMS functionality may provide a method to aid in the expansion of the “Midnight Cargo Test”

## Overview

- Possible alternatives
- Initially limited to transcon flights
- Alternatives utilizes the TSD (FEA/FCA, range rings), playbook, and CCSD.
- Possible benefits
- Bridges the gap between strategic planning and tactical initiatives.
- Provides a method to base decisions on active flights plans verses historical routings.
- Allows some flights to traverse areas of forecast weather if weather does not materialize to the extent expected.

## Possible Alternatives

## Create an FEA/FCA - TEST_CONST01

- Identify the approximate center with “.” function - 3915N/8602W

## Create an FEA/FCA - TEST_CONST01

- Identify the approximate center with “.” function - 3915N/8602W
- Show range rings for the Lat/Long - (2 rings at 240 nm)
- Overlay “High” Navaids

## As a technique, create an FEA/FCA on the 480nm boundary 

- As a technique, create an FEA/FCA on the 480nm boundary
- (Transition FEA/FCA)

## Identify transition Navaids

## Possible transition playbook routes: 

- Possible transition playbook routes:
- North- WEST ECK, WEST BAE, WEST JOT
- South - WEST BNA, WEST VUZ

## Example: USA68- LAX/PHL 

- Example: USA68- LAX/PHL

## Slide 11

## Methodology Review (B)

-  Pre Departure (west to east flights)
- Using CCFP, identify areas of potentially hazardous weather that TRANSCON flights should avoid
- Using TSD - FEA/FCA and range rings capability, define a constraint FCA/FEA  and a transition FEA/FCA that is approximately 1 hour flight time from the center of the constraint.
- Identify transition point NAVAIDS using the transition FEA/FCA as a reference to which users can file NRP routes
- Identify playbook routes to transition to - from the transition points that users should include in their flight plans
- Airborne flights
- Solicit pilot reports from east to west flights about weather development in area of concern
- If weather develops; transcon (west to east) flights proceed along filed flight plan route.
- If weather does not develop; collaborate with users and facilities to identify candidate flights for a shortened route from the transition points

## Table 3 in Appendix 4-2 explained

_**Constraints are organized by market area**_
_**Constraint name as modeled**_**:  abbreviations for relevant constraints representing the constrained area as used in the Task 2 model**
_**From Area, To Area**_**:  indicate ACPF areas in the load flow to which to ends of the monitored line(s) of the constraint belongs**
_**EI Ranking**_**:  rankings with respect to four congestion criteria developed with respect to all modeled constraints for Eastern Interconnection (EI). Rankings are based on the 2008 Base Case simulation scenario. For non-binding constraints ranks in corresponding cell in the table appear blank**
_**Regional ranking**_**:  rankings with respect to four congestion criteria developed with respect to all modeled constraints for the market area/region. Rankings are based on the 2008 Base Case simulation scenario. For non-binding constraints ranks in corresponding cell in the table appear blank**
_**Absolute value**_**:  values for the four congestion criteria based on the 2008 Base Case. **
_**Corridors that are most impacted by constraint**_**:  as discussed in the Task 2 report, a corridor analysis identifies constraints that are first, second and third most limiting for an incremental power transfer from source to sink nodes of the corridor.  The results of this analysis are compiled in the database.  For a given constraint, this database is queried to determine up to three corridors that are most affected by that constraint**
