Abstract

The research paper deals in theoretical level with flexible and adaptive microcontrollers following the well-known industrial technology STM32F4. It is applied in the practical level to a Smart Meter SM which is developed at Cynapsys for future generations of Smart Grids. A reconfiguration scenario in theory is assumed to be any flexible operation allowing the addition-removal-update of OS tasks in order to adapt the microcontroller to its environment according to user requirements. It is assumed in practice to be any addition-removal-update of new services to-from SM such as the energy consumption, the remote information reading and power shutdown, the stabilization of the delivered power, the management of new power provider offers, the sale of energy and finally the peak consumption management. We propose an agent-based architecture for a STM32F4 device where a hierarchical software agent is defined to control the environment evolution before applying local reconfigurations for a required flexibility of the microcontroller. We model the agent by using nested timed automates, and design the whole architecture to manage all possible reconfiguration forms. The agent-based architecture is totally implemented and applied to SM, and a simulator X-SM is developed for the evaluation of this paper's contribution.
