Abstract
This section discusses the protection of electrical power systems (EPS) and its relation to the supporting Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) infrastructure. Several dimensions are addressed, ranging from the need of protection and available protection schemes to the identification of faults and disturbances. The challenges brought by recognizing the interdependent nature of today’s and future’s EPS and ICT infrastructures are also highlighted, based on the Smart Grid and the System of Systems perspectives.
