power system islanding

The features of using the method of optimal scheme reduction for islanding of power
systems is reviewed. A modified algorithm for series-parallel folding with the formation of
hierarchically nested clusters is offered. The advantages of the algorithm is grounded and its
implementation in the application for islanding of power system is described.

The graphs bisectioning algorithms are investigated and their applicability to islanding of the power system. The Kernighan-Lin algorithm, spectral method and multilevel kernel k - means approach have been analyzed with respect to the computational complexity and their applicability.
