The Resilient Information Architecture Platform for Smart Grid (RIAPS) is a software platform for building distributed real-time embedded applications using a component-oriented approach. RIAPS provides core infrastructure and services for building effective, secure and powerful distributed Smart Grid applications. Applications include, but are not limited to: monitoring and control, data collection and processing, energy management, and safety applications.
The goal of RIAPS is to provide a run-time and design-time software environment for building applications that executes on the Smart Grid. The main distinguishing characteristic of RIAPS is the completely distributed computing model: software applications are distributed across a multitude of computing nodes on a communication network, and each node has access to local measurements and actuators. An application consists of actors that run concurrently on one node and in parallel on many nodes. The functionality of an application is realized by the network of interacting actors.
