Installation

1. System requirements

Matlab (7.1 or later) or GNU Octave (4.0.0 or later).

2. Installation

• Extract source code to a directory.
• Enter the directory in Matlab or GNU Octave.
• Execute command setup. You will see the following sub-directories:
  • /data: Stores test system data, simulation settings data, etc.
  • /example: Some examples of using PowerSAS.m.
  • /output: Stores test result data.
  • /internal: Internal functions of PowerSAS.m computation core.
  • /util: Auxiliary functions including data I/O, plotting, data conversion, etc.
  • /logging: Built-in logging system.
  • /doc: Documentation.

3. Test

• Execute command initpowersas to initilize the environment, then execute test_powersas to run tests. You should expect all tests to pass.

4. Initialization

To initialize PowerSAS.m, add the main directory of PowerSAS.m to your Matlab or GNU Octave path and run the command initpowersas. This will ensure that all the functions of PowerSAS.m are added to the path and thus callable.
