In this paper, we developed a smart black box that can monitor and record the information of the sensor from subsystem in the smart grid system. The plant is the complex power system which is integrated by solar power system, grid-connected power systems, and BESS(battery energy storage system). The black box with the web-server application can connect and synchronize to an external monitoring system and a smart phone. We hope that this system is to contribute to improve operational efficiency, reliability, and stability for the smart grid power system.

The conventional machine vision system which has uniform rectangular grid requires tremendous amount of computation for processing and analysing an image especially in 2-D image transfermations such as scaling, rotation and 3-D reconvery problem typical in robot application environment. In this study, the imaging system with nonuiformly distributed image sensors simulating human visual system, referred to as Ploar Exponential Grid(PEG), is compared with the existing conventional uniform rectangular grid system in terms of image resolution and computational complexity. By mimicking the geometric structure of the PEG sensor cell, we obtained PEG-like images using computer simulation. With the images obtained from the simulation, image resolution of the two systems are compared and some basic image processing tasks such as image scaling and rotation are implemented based on the PEG sensor system to examine its performance. Furthermore Fourier transform of PEG image is described and implemented in image analysis point of view. Also, the range and heading-angle measurement errors usually encountered in 3-D coordinates recovery with stereo camera system are claculated based on the PEG sensor system and compared with those obtained from the uniform rectangular grid system. In fact, the PEC imaging system not only reduces the computational requirements but also has scale and rotational invariance property in Fourier spectrum. Hence the PEG system has more suitable image coordinate system for image scaling, rotation, and image recognition problem. The range and heading-angle measurement errors with PEG system are less than those of uniform rectangular rectangular grid system in practical measurement range.

DC distribution has several differences compared to AC distribution. DC distribution has a higher efficiency than AC distribution when distributing electricity at the same voltage level. Accordingly, power can be transferred further with low-voltage DC. In addition, power flow in a DC grid system is produced by only a voltage difference in magnitude. Owing to these differences, operation of a DC grid system significantly differs from that of an AC system. In this paper, the power flow problem in a bipolar-type DC grid with unbalanced load conditions is organized and solved. Control strategy of energy storage system on a slow time scale with power references obtained by solving an optimization problem regarding the DC grid is then proposed. The proposed strategy is verified with computer simulations.

Power system technologies in the area of smart grid are being converged with communication system technologies or information technologies(IT). This interdisciplinary action affects on two parts vigorously so that IT has become a essential part of power industry. But terminologies of two parts are confused and it is necessary that these are standardized to develop the industry. The interpretation works with scientific and technological standard of the smart grid terminologies which are IEC TC 57 glossary and non-glossary terminologies are introduced. Based on the interpretation works of the smart grid terminologies, an online terminology information system for the standardization of smart grid terminologies is proposed. The system provides the capability of collection and delivery of academic society opinions for the selected and interpreted terminologies.

Mobile grid system supports the integration mobile devices as grid resources. Availability of mobile resources changes dynamically in mobile grid system. Stochastic reward nets (SRN) is an extension of stochastic Petri nets and provides compact modeling facilities for system analysis. We build the SRN model to represent availability of mobile resources with disconnected operation service.

In distributed computing paradigm, mobile surrogate systems have not gained wide acceptance because of security concerns that have not been suitably addressed yet. Currently even the widely used Grid middleware, Globus, does not have a host authentication mechanism, which makes it hard to provide high performance Grid computing capabilities to mobile clients. In this paper, a mobile Grid service framework is designed and implemented in order to provide Grid services to mobile host such as PDA. The surrogate host-based system allows mobile hosts to be provided with Grid services while moving. The implemented mobile Grid services system has been applied to mobile healthcare system which utilizes Grid computing for ECG signal processing. The presented system framework can be used as a secure enterprise mobile healthcare system for hospital physicians.

Grid is a distributed computing model for next to the WWW computing model. Java language is developed for distributed computing and is being commonly used for WWW applications. Java can also be used for designing and implementing Grid systems. We introduced the basic concepts of Grid and implemented a new computing grid system. We test proper distributed applications on the multimedia grid system and analyzed the execution results. The execution results showed that the grid performance was much better than the legacy systems.

The Grid VO(Virtual Organization) is temporary VO where gather indivisual, authority, or system resource, differ from previous VO concept that controled by internal principal and policy set. It have many problems in case of indivisuals, authorities, or system resources that became member of some Grid VO at same time and combination followed changing condition of system resource for building Grid VO. This paper propose lightweighted Grid VO authentication system based on XML security to solve the authentication of the problems occuring in building Grid VO. In this paper, Grid VO authentication system is including Grid VO authentication module that is intermediate management system in PKI to previous authentication service structure and provide effective authentication service to Grid VO.

Encouragement of DER from Korean government with several policies boosts DER installation in power system. When the penetration of DER in the grid is getting high, loss of generation with break-away of DER by abnormal grid conditions should be considered, because loss of high generation causes abnormal low frequency and additional operations of protection system. Therefore, KEPCO where is Korean power utility is preparing improvement in regulations for DERs connected to the grid to support abnormal grid conditions such as low and high frequencies or voltages. This is called 'Ride Through' because the requirement is for DER to maintain grid connection during required periods when abnormal grid conditions occur. However, it is not easy to have a test for ride through capability in reality because emulation of abnormal grid conditions is not possible in real power system in operation. Also, it is not easy to have a study on grid effect when ride through capability fails with the same reason. PHILs (Power Hardware In the Loop System) makes it possible to analyze power system and hardware performance at once. Therefore, this paper introduces PHILs test methods and presents verification of ride through capability especially for low voltage grid conditions.

Grid resources are composed of various communication networks and operation systems. When a grid system searches and selects grid resources, which meet requirements of a grid user, existing grid resource selection systems are limited due to their storage methods for resource information. In order to select grid resources suitable for requirements of a grid user and characteristics of data, this paper constructs an ontology for grid resources and proposes an ontology-based grid resource selection system. This system provides an inference engine based on rules defined by SWRL to create a resource list. Experimental results comparing the proposed system with existing grid resource selection systems, such as the Condor-G and the Nimrod-G, verify the effectiveness of the ontology-based grid resource selection system with improved job throughput and resource utilization and reduced job loss and job processing time.
