OPTIMIZATION MODULE FOR CAPACITY RESERVE TRADING APPLICATION

This paper presents the operation of the optimization module of the Capacity Reserve
Market application. First, a brief overview of the entire application and its business process, as
well as the software architecture, is given. Then, a description of algorithms is given, ie a
mathematical model of the optimization process. The following is a functional description of the
optimization module software, as well as a description of the software technologies used. Finally,
a brief overview of the further development plan is given. The optimization module was developed
using the C ++ programming language on the Linux platform (specifically Oracle Linux 7.9). The
basic optimization problem comes down to the linear programming problem, and open source
libraries, specifically the GNU Linear Programming Toolkit, are used to solve this problem. Data
on auctions, participants, CZC / ATC and other data are stored in a relational database on a
MySQL compatible MariaDB platform. The described module was developed within the
HORIZON 2020 project TRINITY (H2020-863874 Transmission system enhancement of regional
borders by means of Intelligent market technology).
