This proposal requests funding to run a workshop on applied mathematical aspects of power systems under restructuring, focusing on reliability and security. The workshop has several objectives:1. It will provide a forum for the interchange of ideas between power system researchers and applied mathematicians.2. The workshop focus is of prime importance, namely, the reliability and security in a restructured power system. Three main themes have been identified: (a) optimization of restructured power system operation, (b) system stability and dynamic performance, and (c) computational intelligence methods. Experts in optimization methods, control theory, and artificial intelligence will be invited to give presentations on the new advances that have high potential of fruitful power system application.3. To motivate the workshop, an article on open problems of reliability and security in restructured power systems will be written jointly by the organizers (JHC and FFW) and the NSF program director, and be distributed to the workshop participants to help them prepare their presentations. In addition, each presenter will be asked to prepare an article before the workshop, such that the conference activities can be recorded in a monograph.As a continuation of Reliability and Security Workshop, a Strategic US-Africa Research-Education Planning Workshop is proposed to bring together about 15 researchers from US and a comparable number of African researchers to discuss research and training ideas and then to prioritize the activities, to jump start the US-Africa Research-Education Exchange Initiative program.Intellectual Merits: The Security and Reliability Workshop will cultivate the exchange of ideas between researchers in several distinct communities: the power system researchers who are more problem-driven and practical, versus the applied mathematicians who have stronger theoretical and computational bases. We anticipate the cross fertilization of new ideas will establish a mathematical paradigm in power system research in which new analytical and computational tools will play a dominant role in improving the reliable and secure operation of a deregulated electric power market. The Strategic US-Africa Research-Education Planning Workshop will lay out a roadmap of network research and training, setting priorities on a large number of research, training, and development activities.Broader Impacts: We encourage a diversity of participants at the Security and Reliability Workshop. We will invite women faculty and faculty from underrepresented groups to participate. Young faculty members are of particular interest because the workshop may help to shape their research and careers. Although the number of participants of the workshop may be limited, the workshop monograph and web site will help to extend the benefits to the power system and applied mathematics community at large. An undergraduate student, preferably a minority, will be supported to develop and maintain the workshop web site and to help coordinate the compilation of the articles for the monograph. The Strategic US-Africa Research-Education Planning Workshop will potentially propel the research activities of universities in several African countries to a much higher level, which will have a spillover effect to other universities and to other African countries. The social and economic benefits of this Workshop can be substantial.

这项建议要求提供资金，举办一个关于改组中的电力系统的应用数学方面的讲习班，重点是可靠性和安全性。讲习班有几个目标：1。它将为电力系统研究人员和应用数学家之间的思想交流提供一个论坛。研讨会的重点是最重要的，即在一个重组电力系统的可靠性和安全性。已经确定了三个主要主题：(a)重组电力系统运行的优化，(b)系统稳定性和动态性能，以及(c)计算智能方法。将邀请优化方法、控制理论和人工智能方面的专家就具有丰富电力系统应用潜力的新进展进行演讲。为了激励研讨会，将由组织者（JHC和FFW）和NSF项目主任共同撰写一篇关于重构电力系统可靠性和安全性的公开问题的文章，并分发给研讨会参与者，以帮助他们准备演讲。此外，每个演讲者将被要求在研讨会开始前准备一篇文章，以便将会议活动记录在专著中。作为可靠性与安全研讨会的延续，提议设立一个战略美非研究教育规划研讨会，汇集大约15名来自美国的研究人员和相当数量的非洲研究人员，讨论研究和培训的想法，然后确定活动的优先次序，从而启动美非研究教育交流倡议项目。智力优势：安全与可靠性研讨会将培养几个不同社区的研究人员之间的思想交流：电力系统研究人员更注重问题驱动和实践，而应用数学家则拥有更强的理论和计算基础。我们预计，新思想的相互融合将在电力系统研究中建立一个数学范式，在这个范式中，新的分析和计算工具将在改善解除管制的电力市场的可靠和安全运行方面发挥主导作用。美国-非洲战略研究-教育规划研讨会将制定网络研究和培训的路线图，为大量的研究、培训和发展活动确定优先事项。更广泛的影响：我们鼓励安全与可靠性研讨会的参与者多样化。我们将邀请女性教师和来自代表性不足群体的教师参与。年轻的教师特别感兴趣，因为研讨会可能有助于塑造他们的研究和职业生涯。虽然参加研讨会的人数可能有限，但研讨会专著和网站将有助于扩大电力系统和应用数学界的利益。一名本科生（最好是少数族裔）将获资助发展和维护研讨会网站，并协助协调专著文章的汇编工作。美国-非洲战略研究-教育规划研讨会将潜在地推动几个非洲国家的大学的研究活动到一个更高的水平，这将对其他大学和其他非洲国家产生溢出效应。这个讲习班的社会和经济效益是巨大的。
