Automatic generation control (AGC) is a system for adjusting the power output of multiple generators at different power plants, in response to changes in the load. Since a power grid requires that generation and load closely balance moment by moment, frequent adjustments to the output of generators are necessary. The balance can be judged by measuring the system frequency; if it is increasing, more power is being generated than used, which causes all the machines in the system to accelerate. If the system frequency is decreasing, more load is on the system than the instantaneous generation can provide, which causes all generators to slow down.

Abstract: In this paper, an algorithm to solve the optimal unit commitment problem under deregulated environment has been proposed using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) intelligent technique accounting economic dispatch constraints. In the present electric power market, where renewable energy power plants have been included in the system, there is a lot of unpredictability in the demand and generation. This paper presents an improved particle swarm optimization algorithm (IPSO) for power system unit commitment with the consideration of various constraints. IPSO is an extension of the standard particle swarm optimization algorithm (PSO) which uses more particles information to control the mutation operation, and is similar to the social society in that a group of leaders could make better decisions. The program was developed in MATLAB and the proposed method implemented on IEEE 14 bus test system.

Optimization of Economic Load Dispatch with Unit Commitment on Multi MachineIJAPEJOURNAL
Economic load dispatch (ELD) and Unit Commitment (UC) are significant research applications in power systems that optimize the total production cost of the predicted load demand. The UC problem determines a turn-on and turn-off schedule for a given combination of generating units, thus satisfying a set of dynamic operational constraints. ELD optimizes the operation cost for all scheduled generating units with respect to the load demands of customers. The first phase in this project is to economically schedule the distribution of generating units using Gauss seidal and the second phase is to determine optimal load distribution for the scheduled units using dynamic programming method is applied to select and choose the combination of generating units that commit and de-commit during each hour. These precommitted schedules are optimized by dynamic programming method thus producing a global optimum solution with feasible and effective solution quality, minimal cost and time and higher precision. The effectiveness of the proposed techniques is investigated on two test systems consisting of five generating units and the experiments are carried out using MATLAB R2010b software. Experimental results prove that the proposed method is capable of yielding higher quality solution including mathematical simplicity, fast convergence, diversity maintenance, robustness and scalability for the complex ELD-UC problem.
This chapter will focus on the optimization and security of a power system. basically it will focus on economic dispatch analysis without considering transmission line losses.

Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

system or can be environmental limitations.
We can classified into
Unit constraints.
System constraints.
Environmental constraints.
Network constraints.
Cost constraints.
6. Unit commitment constraints

1. Maximum generating capacity.
2. Minimum stable generation.
3. Minimum up time.
4. Minimum down time.

System constraints:
1- Load / generation balance / system power balance.
2- Spinning reserve constraint.
Network constraint:
Environmental constraint:
Cost constrain:
1- Start-up cost.
2- Running cost.
8. Unit commitment constraints
Maximum generating capacity:
That constraint state that the power generated from the unit must not exceed
specific value because of thermal stability of the unit exceeding this constraint cause damage to the unit.
Mathematical formula.
X (i,t) < P max
X (i,t) is the output power of the unit i, in the time t.
Minimum stable generation:
As the above constraint the power outage from the unit must not fall down
specific value because of technical limitation like flame stability in the gas and steam units.
Mathematical formula.
X (i,t) > P min
The maximum and minimum generated power of each scheduled unit must not be exceeded
p min < X (i, t) < p max
9. Unit commitment constraints
Minimum up time:
This constraint state that once the unit is running must not shunt down
immediately due technical limitation and mechanical characteristic of the unit.
Mathematical formula:
Where
u(i, t) : status of unit i at period t.
u(i, t) = 1 unit i is ON during period t.
u(i, t) = 0 unit i is Off during period t.
10. Unit commitment constraints
Ramp rates:
Definition:
To avoid damaging the turbine, the electrical output of a unit cannot
change by more than a certain amount over a period of time.
Minimum down time:
This constrain state that once the unit is running must not shunt
down immediately due technical limitation and mechanical characteristic of the unit.
11. Unit commitment constraints
Ramp-up rate:
Start-up ramp rate:
According to this constraint the unit cannot start immediately but taking
time this time called start up time.
Running-up ramp rate:
According to this constraint the unit cannot immediate changing the power
up without taking time called ramp rate running up time. The change here means
increasing outage power.
Mathematical formula:
x(i, t+1) x(i, t)
12. Unit commitment constraints
Ramp down rate:
Shut down ramp rate:
Look like previse constraint the unit take time to shut down.
Running down ramp rate:
According to this one in case of running condition. The unit cannot
immediate changing the power down without taking time called ramp rate running
down time. The change here means decreasing outage power.
Mathematical formula:
x (i, t) x (i, t+1)
13. Unit commitment constraints
System constraints:
State as the power generated from all unit must be equal the load and
the losses.
Mathematical formula:
u(i,t) * x(i,t) = l(t)
Where l(t) is the load power at time t.
Spinning reserve constraint:
Spinning reserve:
Spinning reserve is the on-line reserve capacity that is synchronized to
the grid system and ready to meet electric demand within 10 minutes of a dispatch
instruction by the ISO (International Standards Organization) . Spinning reserve is
needed to maintain system frequency stability during emergency operating conditions
and unforeseen load swings.
14. Unit commitment constraints
Reason to keep reserve power.
1- Sudden unexpected increase in the load demand.
2- Underestimating the load due to error in load forecasting.
3- Local shortage in the generated power
4- Force outage of some generating units.
5- Force outage of supplementary equipment’s due to stability problem.
In Electrical engineering, Force outage is the shutdown condition of a power station, transmission
line or distribution line when the generating unit is unavailable to produce power due to unexpected
breakdown.
Condition of reserve.
1- Reserve must be higher than largest unit.
2- Should be spread around the network.
3- The unit must operate at 80-85% of its rated.
15. Unit commitment constraints
Network constraint:
Transmission network may have effect on the commitment of units because of
Some units must run to provide voltage support.
The output of some units may be limited because their output would exceed the
transmission capacity of the network.
Environmental constraint:
Unit commitment study is effected by environmental constrains because of
Constraints on pollutants such SO2, NOx various forms:
1- Limit on each plant at each hour.
2- Limit on plant over a year.
3- Limit on a group of plants over a year.
16. Unit commitment constraints
Constraints on hydro generation:
1- Protection of wildlife.
2- Navigation, recreation.
Cost constraints:
Cost constrain taking two type of cost in consideration.
1- Start-up cost:
Start up cost depends on varicose factor like
Warming up because the unit cannot bring on line immediately.
Start up cost depends on time unit has been off.
17. Unit commitment constraints
Running cost:
A balance between start-up costs and running costs is important
because of
1- How long should a unit run to “ recover” its start up cost ?
Example:
Diesel generator : Low start-up cost, High running cost.
Coal plant : High start-up cost, Low running cost.
Spinning Reserve:
“Spinning” means the generator is running and may have be synchronized, so it is
ready to provide the desired power in short time.
when some sudden load demand is there we increase steam input and delta increases a little
bit and sudden requirement is supplied. This capacity of generators is called "Spinning
Reserve".
