"Applied Mathematics for Restructured Electric Power Systems: Optimization, Control, and Computational Intelligence" is a specialized book based on the results of a National Science Foundation workshop that took place in November 2003. The book addresses the application of mathematics to solve complex problems in the field of electric power systems. It comprises 12 chapters written by recognized experts, covering topics such as control, optimization, and computational intelligence. Each chapter is divided into three parts: a description of a relevant problem in the power system, the current practice or specific research approaches, and future research directions. The technical areas discussed include, among others, voltage and oscillatory stability, safety margins of power systems, hierarchical and decentralized control, as well as load forecasting and component prediction. This book is aimed at researchers and professionals in the field of power systems who are tasked with addressing challenges in electric power supply.
