Abstract :
The author discusses trends in computer technology and speculates about computer applications that may be used in electric power systems in the future. He identifies some of the power system engineering and operating functions that are being automated and discusses how they are likely to benefit from future advances in computer capabilities. Among the issues he considers are personal productivity of engineers, power systems planning, design engineering, construction management, power systems operation, maintenance, new business opportunities, and problems and risks.<>
