Intent to proposal Task Force

 

Two TFs have been proposed for the Big Data & Analytics

 Edge computing infrastructure for Grid edge sensing and control

 Data governance in the cloud for power system organizations

AMPS suggested hosting them under CAMS, not BDA, based on the scope of the two subcommittees

BDA

“The proposed subcommittee builds upon the task force activities in 2013-2015, and will serve as a professional society hub to enable collective efforts towards defining a big data-driven grid operation roadmap. This subcommittee will bring together leaders from industry, academia, and government and meet regularly (both face-to-face meeting and Web-based conference calls) to define the architectural, computational, and practical challenges and opportunities brought by the emerging big data in smart grid. Discussions will focus on the standards, management, and analytics of big multi-domain multi-resolution data (PMUs, SCADA, Weather, GIS, etc.) for power grid operations.”

CAMS

“Promote integration as well as development of analytical methodologies and computational techniques to enhance 1) utility system operation and planning, 2) energy transaction and system dispatch, and 3) power quality, reliability, and energy services. Encourage research and development of advanced analytical algorithms to solve power system problems. Investigate innovations in computer applications to facilitate implementation of the analytical algorithms. Advocate state-of-the-art information technology to integrate data, algorithms, and applications. Sponsor technical papers, panel sessions, and workshops to provide effective dissemination of advanced technologies related to the subcommittee activities. Coordinate such activities where appropriate with other IEEE committees and subcommittees.”
