User-Friendly Workstation for Power Systems Analysis

This paper presents the experimental study of advanced interactive power systems analysis using a personal scientific computer. The personal scientific computer has new powerful displaying and operating capabilities. Our workstation, called the Advanced Analyzer of Power System (ADAPOS), intends to utilize these capabilities for power systems analysis. In addition our workstation has the following features to perform user-friendly efficient interaction between human and machine: a supervisory system, a study database and a graphic human interface. Also graphic presentations of analytical output, for example animation of power swings, promote understanding of power systems. Our workstation highly improves the human interface and the productivity in interactive power systems analysis.
