Contrast the regulated and deregulated models of electricity generation (see page 39). U.S. Electric Markets, Structure, and Regulations INTRODUCTION Since the early 1990s, the U.S. electric utility industry has gone through sweeping changes associated with deregulation, regulations, reregulation, and the rate-making process. Due to the largely sunk capital investment and the well-established presence of economies of scale, economies of scope, and vertical integration, conventional wisdom has held that competition is infeasible (at least in the transmission and distribution segments). This same wisdom holds that price regulation is necessary to ensure that consumers pay a fair price and that producers and shareholders are compensated appropriately for the risk associated with holding the stock of the utility [in the case of investor-owned utilities (IOUs), which supply approximately two-thirds of the power to end-users in the United States]. This chapter discusses the electric market structure, how utilities recover their costs, the different recovery mechanisms, federal and state regulations, and how the regulatory process can impact rates. THE U.S. ELECTRIC INDUSTRY STRUCTURE In recent years, the industry has been evolving from vertically integrated monopolies that provide generation, transmission, and distribution service at cost-based rates (regulated model) to an industry where the operation of generation, transmission, and distribution assets has been increasingly unbundled and even divested [in the case of generating assets (deregulated model)]. In certain markets, the wholesale and retail price of electricity is determined competitively under a regulatory framework that promotes competition. Although transmission and distribution markets are still monopolistic and follow traditional cost-based rates, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) and a number of states have implemented rate-making approaches that give regulated utilities financial incentives to expand their transmission and distribution systems cost-effectively and reliably. Fourteen states - Maine, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania

2. Fill in a test plan for the test "If the number of days before the flight is 5 or more and less than 15" from the problem above. Test Case Example days Reason for value chosen for days (each should be #2 #3 value to test unique) Expected Result Actual Result that is observed when code is run Do not fill this in Do not fill this in Do not fill this in 3. After you write the code to solve problem #1, you give the source code to another person to test. Is this an example of white- (or clear) box testing, or black-box testing? Why? 4. Trace the following code, if the user provides an input value of 5. int x, iter; printf("Enter a number greater than 0: \n"); scanf("%d", &iter); int x = 9; while (x > iter) { printf("Windy!\n"); x--; }

The movement of a cow's tail is an indicator that she is about to calve. A cow jerks her tail back and forth to ward off flies, whereas when she is having pre-birth contractions, the tail tends to move up and down rhythmically, with the same frequency as the contractions. Write down the names of two sensors from the list that might be used to detect such tail movements and give a brief explanation of how they might work individually and together in order to identify a cow that is about to calve (rather than one warding off flies, for example). Sensors: Cameras Microphone Touch screen Fingerprint sensor Light sensor Buttons Headphone jack Power port Data port (often part of power port) GPS receiver Radio receivers Accelerometer Gyroscopes Thermometer Magnetometer Humidity sensor
