Article
Full-text available
A number of different approaches to build adaptive user interfaces for web-based systems and office applications have been reported in the literature. However, for more demanding domains such as the operation of a power plant, little research has been conducted. To operate a power plant, the operator has to visualize information, analyze normal and...
Conference Paper
In the operation of a power plant, the operator has to deal with a number of variables displayed in several windows, presented in different formats such as tabular, oneline diagrams, process diagrams, etc. Under these conditions, the operator needs to locate data relevant to the current status of the plant and efficiently navigate a large number of...
Chapter
Full-text available
In this chapter we present the current advances in the field of adaptive user interfaces, analysing the different research efforts, the challenges involved as well as the more recent and promising directions in this field. Initially, we introduce the foundations of adaptive user interfaces, also referred in technical literature as Intelligent User...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
In this paper we review and analyze the current trends and research efforts in the area of adaptive user interfaces (AUIs) for different applications and domains. We present some of the current challenges for AUIs and the three main approaches used to address these challenges: artificial intelligence (AI), user modeling (UM) and human-computer inte...
Conference Paper
Full-text available
Multi-agent systems (MAS) is a novel technology that is being used in several fields of engineering. In environments where several decisions have to be made, the MAS is conformed by agents that utilize artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to support real time autonomous operation. This paper presents a proposed application of MAS in electrical s...

El Instituto de Investigaciones Eléctricas (IIE) havenido trabajando durante varios años en el área deAMR (Lectura Automática de Medidores, por sus siglas eninglés) así como en la deteccón del robo deenergía eléctrica como líneasestratégicas para el desarrollo de infraestructura interna ytambién como respuesta a las demandas deautomatización de la...
Article
In order to fulfill the Mexican Electric Utility's (CFE) modernization demands, the Electrical Research Institute (IIE) developed at the Process Super Vision Department an improved Human Machine Interface (HMI) modernization for a Combined Cycle Power Plant (CCPP) to replace the old one based on VAX workstations with a microcomputer base system usi...
Article
Current graphic user interfaces for process supervision in power plants are comprised of a large number of windows, presenting relevant data in order to efficiently and safely operate the plant. The user needs to visualize information, analyze normal and failure situa-tions, process changing data, and finally take these elements to make a decision...
