    摘要: In one embodiment, a method comprises a topology processor generating a power grid topology model of a power grid topology controlled via a communications network having a corresponding communications architecture overlying the power grid topology. The topology processor generates a communications architecture model of the communications architecture. In response to receiving a request for executing a change in at least a portion of the power grid topology, the topology processor identifies power grid topology model data associated with the portion of the power grid topology, and identifies communications architecture model data identifying a corresponding portion of the communications architecture associated with the portion of the power grid topology. The topology processor selectively executes the request based on sending, to a network controller, a query to determine whether the communications architecture can implement the change, the query identifying the power grid topology model data and the corresponding communications architecture model data.
