Hi,

But the smart market and state estimation in extras of verson 3.2 of 
Matpower are still under construction. Please correct me if I am wrong.  One 
of my stduents is working on 'Benefit Maximization". can I sue matpower for 
the same as social welfare maximization?

I am teaching students on power trading (selling and bidding, auction power 
markets) and EMS.

Some querries.

1. Can we use the 'runopf' for power loss minimization.
2. Can we use them matpower code for multi objective optimization
3. Is is possible to have SCADA on MAtlab?. This will be great for the 
students.

Kindly clarify

Regards
swarup
