Back in Southampton

Back in Southampton now here is a summery of what I have been doing:
I have been focusing my attention on achieving a good understanding of how the electricity system works by reading a variety of books including 

1. Galvin R, Yeager K, Stuller J. Perfect power: how the microgrid revolution will unleash cleaner, greener, and more abundant energy. 1st ed. McGraw-Hill Professional; 2008.

2. Weedy BM, Cory BJ. Electric Power Systems. 4th ed. John Wiley & Sons; 2004.

3. Gonen T. Electric power distribution system engineering. 2nd ed. McGraw-Hill New York; 2007.

4. Chard FDLC. Electricity Supply: Transmission and Distribution. 1st ed. Longman Group Limited; 1976.

I have also been studying the paper:

1. Davidson EM, Dolan MJ, McArthur SDJ, Ault GW. The use of constraint programming for the autonomous management of power flows. In: 15th International Conference on Intelligent System Applications to Power Systems (ISAP 2009).; 2009:1-7.

with the intention of first recreating the results found in the paper and then applying a decentralised way to calculate power flow analysis. By the end of January the goal is to have a mathematical model of the various constraints and equations used and a set of experiments and results written up in a small two column style paper.
