Knowledge Management and Visualization in Support of Vulnerability Assessment of Electricity Production

摘要: With the rapid growth in demand of electricity, vulnerability assessment electricity production and its availability has become essential to our economy, national defense, quality life. The main focus date generally been on protecting power plants energy transmission systems. However, extraction delivery fuels is also a critical component value chain for production. A disruption at any point infrastructure could result lost delivery. need better analysis fuel vulnerabilities pressing. Therefore, purpose this paper present preliminary results research project that aims analyze associated with ensure supplies, by providing insight into likely problems so solutions preventative methods may be devised. In project, framework was proposed. Different data sources were integrated warehouse allow interactive enormous historical datasets coal transactions transportation. By summarizing slicing different cubes, able analyzed visualized. An GISmore » interface allows users interact it perform queries then visualize results. analyses help decision makers understand impact transportation system. Thus, policies might advised avoid disruptions.« less
