Power Grid Model
The global energy transition is placing new and unprecedented demands on Distribution System Operators (DSOs). Alongside upgrades to grid capacity, processes such as digitization, capacity optimization, and congestion management are becoming vital for delivering reliable services.
Power Grid Model is an open source project from Linux Foundation Energy and provides a calculation engine that is increasingly essential for DSOs. It offers a standards-based foundation enabling real-time power systems analysis, simulations of electrical power grids, and sophisticated what-if analysis. In addition, it enables in-depth studies and analysis of the electrical power grid’s behavior and performance. This comprehensive model incorporates essential factors such as power generation capacity, electrical losses, voltage levels, power flows, and system stability.
Power Grid Model is currently being applied in a wide variety of use cases, including grid planning, expansion, reliability, and congestion studies. It can also help in analyzing the impact of renewable energy integration, assessing the effects of disturbances or faults, and developing strategies for grid control and optimization.
What to expect
For the upcoming meetup we are organizing, we have an exciting lineup of activities planned:
-Insightful presentations covering two practical applications of the Power Grid Model.
-An update on the latest advancements in Power Grid -Model technology during the first and second quarters of 2024.
-An interactive brainstorming session to discuss and propose new feature requests.
-An opportunity to connect with fellow Power Grid Model enthusiasts and users.

Cosa hanno in comune un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ?Speck&Tech
ABSTRACT: A prima vista, un mattoncino Lego e la backdoor XZ potrebbero avere in comune il fatto di essere entrambi blocchi di costruzione, o dipendenze di progetti creativi e software. La realtà è che un mattoncino Lego e il caso della backdoor XZ hanno molto di più di tutto ciò in comune.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

11. Challenges and Solutions
Key Challenge Solution
Planning phase: Working Simplification of planning
understaffed for Olympic demands, optimizing FA’s
planning model time, focus on operations &
standards policies
Late “real” venuization, Focus on creating &
late surge of workforce documenting FA’s
for FA’s procedures > transfer of
knowledge
Lack of test-events on Make the most of
every venue opportunities, promote small
events, use venue training
as an test event
12. Key Decisions Made
• CO-RIO had a understaffed team for Olympic planning
model standards.
– Olympic planning model requires larger number of workforce at
least one year before the Games
– We understood that we could not pursue the level/amount of
planning required with our numbers
– We re-designed the planning and the outputs needed to “fit” the
production capacity of the FA’s
– Mixed results: FA’s were responsive to the new model, but the
planning level is not top notch – sufficient in the majority of the
FA’s but insufficient in others
13. Key Decisions Made
• Late Venuization, late surge of workforce for FA’s.
– We had a power struggle in between the venue teams and the FA’s –
focus on the venue or the FA?
– The planning demands were gradually changing for the venue
operation, but the FA’s wanted to keep the focus on their business.
– We understood the issue and gave FA’s some “breathing room” to focus
both on their operations (late tenders) and the venue demands.
– Mixed results as well – although Venue Managers were given the
“institutional” authority, FA representatives held “allegiance” to the FA’s.
– Venue Managers (cluster managers at the time) did not have “real”
authority to demand performance from the FA’s until very late.
– Focus was given on detailed procedures and ability to transfer
knowledge quickly to the new comers
14. Key Decisions Made
• Lack of test-events on every venue.
– Real problem – teams don’t act as teams if they don’t play!
– Venue teams that had test events operate significantly better
than the ones that haven’t
– We brought many of the other venues’ FA’s representatives to
work on the venues with test events – even if wasn’t necessary
– Some venue teams arranged games to be played, even without
public, to test at least FOP operations.
– Some venues had a really late delivery and suffered in the
beginning of operations – hit the ground running!
15. Risks and Contingencies
Risk Contingency plan
Way too many to • Do whatever it takes
describe • Make things happen
• Anticipate!
• “You are not here to make friends”
(Mr. John Quayle)
• Have the ability to pay for the last 5%
- it will make a difference
16. Lessons Learned
• What are the key outcomes?
– We now have effectively created a tremendous workforce with
large events experience
– These people will be multipliers of the knowledge gained in the
Games
– Just with that Sport Operations in Brazil will improve greatly in
the next 5 – 10 years
– The government and ourselves understand now the scale,
complexity and most of the scope of Multi-Sport/Multi-Venues
Events
– Brazil and Rio have now the sport infrastructure built to become
a major player in the international events industry
17. Lessons Learned
• What are the key lessons learned?
– If you are planning on the Olympic Model, ensure to have a large
enough team in the strategic and concept of operations phases
to produce a well structured scope - it will make a difference to
have a solid base – it will make change management easier.
– If there is legislation that have strong impacts on procurement try
to get temporary relief.
– Keep your budget flexible! (as much as you can)
– Get the most detailed sport information you can – if you don’t
there will be problems with the technical delegates
– Venue designs are very important – but try to make the venue
planning concise – people always want to change something -
keep the focus on OPERATIONS - bad venues are tough to
operate
18. Lessons Learned
• What would you do differently?
– Have more personnel somehow, specially when the scope is
being defined – or have more experienced central team at that
phase.
– Have (good) consultants along the planning ride – shortcuts are
really valuable and the issues do repeat themselves
– Have a strong project management central team to control the
“boring” part – operational manuals, master plans – it is VERY
important to know how your organization is performing – it’s
human nature to hide mistakes and shortcomings
– Have enough resources to venuize at least 8 months before the
games.
– Move to the large venues at least a month prior to the Games
