This research involves the innovative use of simulators for the optimal design and fine-tuning of complex power networks. A Simulator is a computer on which a large network can be modeled and studied, without the danger of catastrophic harm. This project proposes to place the simulator under the control of an optimization algorithm for selecting the parameters for the network that result in the best performance. A sequence of several runs is conducted, with the optimization algorithm inspecting the results of each simulation run and adjusting the design parameters using advanced mathematical procedures so that the subsequent runs show improvement. When the sequence of runs is concluded, the system is optimized. With this approach, the performance of today's complex power systems can be significantly improved using an automatic process.
