    xiv PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION

    scheduling problem and new solution techniques. Chapter 8 treats methods


    used in generation system planning and introduces probabilistic techniques in
    the computation of fuel consumption and energy production costs. Chapter 8
    stands alone and might be used in any position after the first seven chapters.
    Chapter 9 introduces generation control and discusses practices in modern US.
    utilities and pools. We have attempted to provide the big picture in this
    chapter to illustrate how the various pieces fit together in an electric power
    control system.
    The topics of energy and power interchange between utilities and the
    economic and scheduling problems that may arise in coordinating the economic
    operation of interconnected utilities are discussed in Chapter 10. Chapters 11
    and 12 are a unit. Chapter 11 is concerned with power system security and
    develops the analytical framework used to control bulk power systems in such
    a fashion that security is enhanced. Everything, including power systems, seems
    to have a propensity to fail. Power system security practices try to control and
    operate power systems in a defensive posture so that the effects of these
    inevitable failures are minimized. Finally, Chapter 12 is an introduction
    to the use of state estimation in electric power systems. We have chosen
    to use a maximum likelihood formulation since the quantitative measurement-
    weighting functions arise in a natural sense in the course of the develop-
    ment.
    Each chapter is provided with a set of problems and an annotated reference
    list for further reading. Many (if not most) of these problems should be
    solved using a digital computer. At RPI we are able to provide the students
    with some fundamental programs (e.g., a load flow, a routine for scheduling
    of thermal units). The engineering students of today are well prepared to
    utilize the computer effectively when access to one is provided. Real bulk
    power systems have problems that usually call forth Dr. Bellmans curse of
    dimensionality-computers help and are essential to solve practical-sized
    problems.
    The authors wish to express their appreciation to K. A. Clements, H. H.
    Happ, H. M. Merrill, C. K. Pang, M. A. Sager, and J . C. Westcott, who each
    reviewed portions of this text in draft form and offered suggestions. In addition,
    Dr. Clements used earlier versions of this text in graduate courses taught at
    Worcester Polytechnic Institute and in a course for utility engineers taught in
    Boston, Massachusetts.
    Much of the material in this text originated from work done by our past
    and current associates at Power Technologies, Inc., the General Electric
    Company, and Leeds and Northrup Company. A number of IEEE papers have
    been used as primary sources and are cited where appropriate. It is not
    possible to avoid omitting, references and sources that are considered to
    be significant by one group or another. We make no apology for omissions
    and only ask for indulgence from those readers whose favorites have been
    left out. Those interested may easily trace the references back to original
    sources.
