a smart distribution grid operation with a reasonable
penetration of distributed resources, distribution automation,
and Advanced Metering Infrastructure (AMI). As can be
seen, in addition to advanced metering and communications
infrastructure to support demand response, distributed
resource management, automation functions, the
deployment is also involves a number or enterprise and
operational software applications and information systems.

integration of data associated with assets and networks, their
configuration, condition, and other operational and business
data that can be accessed across the enterprise on a bulk or
transactional basis. Thus, on a conceptual basis, the
enterprise level information integration for Smart Grid
applications can be sub-divided into two general classes: 1)
real-time notifications, control and process integration, and
2) bulk and transaction based data exchange amongst
different applications. For example, the exchange of
network connectivity models between GIS, DMS, OMS and
planning applications can be considered as a bulk data
transaction, where notification of an outage can be
considered as a real-time event.
There are many techniques, technological solutions and
vendor offerings for enterprise-level information
integration, including various middleware message bus
products, web services and other technologies and tools for
systems integration under a service oriented architectures
(SOA). A key industry challenge at this stage is the lack of
broadly developed and supported reference models and
standards for integration of field devices, smart meters,
renewable resources with software applications integration,
and applications interoperability in the distribution space.
Some of the existing industry standards efforts e.g., IEC
TC57: IEC61850 for Substation Automation, IEC61968 for
Distribution Management Systems IEC61970 for Energy
Management Systems and Common Information Model
(CIM) provide some framework for this, but they are not
fully adopted and supported across the industry. Other
IEEE, ANSI and other regional and utility standards for
network design, distributed generation interconnections, and
operations also exist, but may present certain limitations
when dealing with the broader Smart Grid requirements.
