Energy management control systems characteristics

The modeling and simulation of Cl and SoS is challenged by the key characteristics of these systems i) coexistence of multiple time scales, from infrastructure evolution to real-time contingencies it) multiple levels of interdependencies and lack of fixed boundaries, i.e. CIs are made of multiple layers (management, information control, energy, physical infrastructure) Hi) broad spectrum of hazards and threats iv) different types of physical flows, i.e. mass, information, power.
