We introduce a model intended for the analysis of the upgrade of the national transmission grid which explicitly accounts for responses given by the power generating companies in terms of plant expansion. The problem is modeled as a bilevel program with mixed integer structure in both, upper and...

We propose a TransCo model for coordinating transmission expansion planning with com- petitive generation capacity planning in electricity markets. Our purpose is to provide a tool to simulate the equilibrium interplay regarding strategic decisions of a set of power producers and a single...

The purpose of this paper is to formally describe new optimization models for distributed telecommunication networks.Modern distributed networks put more focus on the processing of information and less on the actual transportation of datathan we are traditionally used to in telecommunications....
