The System Analytics for Communications and Energy (SACE) lab focuses on creating advanced probabilistic and data-driven models to enable the prediction of performance of critical cyber-physical infrastructures, such as smart grids. For example, one of the goals of the SACE lab is to advance the fundamental understanding of the vulnerability, reliability and security of smart grids while capturing the interdependencies among the underlying communication network (SCADA), the transmission grid, and the human-computer interactions. The SACE Lab has a dedicated space of approximately 1000 sq. ft. in Engineering Hall, 471. It houses HP Z6 G4 [Intel Zeon Silver 4114 CPU @2.2 GHz (40 CPUs)] workstations for performing both AC and DC power-flow simulation and cascading-failures simulations on power grid test systems (e.g., Polish power grid, IEEE 118, IEEE 300, etc.).
