SGAM TOOLBOX
Modelling aid for the Smart Grid Architecture Model
SGAM TOOLBOX
The SGAM Toolbox aims to be a little help for architecting Smart Grid Systems in reference to the Smart Grid Architecture Model (SGAM) as introduced by the “Smart Grid Coordination Group”. It is implemented as extension for the modeling tool “Enterprise Architect” from Sparx Systems.
Most recent news
Christian Neureiter, the original author of the SGAM Toolbox, has successfully completed his PhD thesis on “A Domain-Specific, Model Driven Engineering Approach for Systems Engineering in the Smart Grid”. It is as of now available on MBSE4U:
History
After implementing various Proof of Concepts, the current version of the SGAM-Toolbox consolidates all implemented functionality and introduces a guidance through the modelling process of a Smart Grid Project.
Technology
The toolbox is based on the “Model Driven Generation” technology provided by EA where the results are stored in a XML-based file. The language of choice is C# which allows to make use of all functionalities that come with it.
Outlook
The next step is to improve the toolbox according to usability and scope of functions. To achieve this, the toolbox is under continuous processing and integration of suggestions from constant exchange with the community.
