An enhanced dispatcher training simulator

At the end of 1993, the first dispatcher training simulator of the Hungarian electric power industry began work in the regional dispatcher center of the North Hungarian Electricity Distribution Company (EMASZ KDSZ). The simulator performs discrete, event-driven simulation of the network, protection and telemetry system. Its main purpose is to help dispatchers to cope with complicated, rarely occurring disturbances in the electrical network as well as with everyday dispatcher activity. During a training session, the trainee uses the same type of workstation as in the online system. The instructor's man-machine interface is implemented in DECWindows using the color graphics terminal of a VAXstation 3100
