Abstract
The development and deployment of advanced distribution management systems (ADMSs) is imperative to address the increasingly complex operational challenges faced by aging electric power distribution systems, while ensuring reliable and resilient operations. Along with integrating the processes across multiple systems that are typically isolated, an ADMS allows for the development of applications that can readily access information from various subsystems, apply advanced analytics, and effectively control and coordinate traditionally segmented systems. This article presents an overview of ADMS applications for emerging electric power distribution systems and identifies future research directions.
