Simulating the Impact of Electricity Consumption by means of Color Network Techniques Petri and Multiagent Systems

Simulation of home use of electric energy is a very powerful tool for the purpose of studying, planning and managing at electric energy distribution companies. This paper presents the initial results obtained considering two tools: the paradigm of multiagent systems (Net Logo tool) and the use of colored Petri nets by CPNTOOLS tool for the energy consumption simulation as a common resource. Thus, distinct profiles of possible behaviors of consumers and household appliances with different powers are modeled and simulated on the format of computational agents and networks with different transitions and states.
