Abstract: The conceptual design is a decisive phase where the simulation teams would like to quickly pre-validate spatial architectures from the physical architecture proposed by the system architects ...

Architecture is not just an implementation detail ... evaluation criteria clustered in six attributes to compare proposed conceptual system architectures. While monolithic and symmetric architectures ...

However, the first step is to properly size and design the microgrid architecture. This paper proposes a multi-objective co-design optimization framework for the optimal selection of the microgrid and ...
