Abstract
This paper proposes an Ant Colony Optimization method to solve the investment problem for the Transmission Expansion Planning Problem for Electrical Power Systems. Operative problem of Linear Programming is solved trough a High Order Interior Point Method. Moreover, the solution of a Non Linear Interior Point Method is used as a sensitivity index to initialize pheromone matrix used in the Ant Colony Algorithm, where is proposed a method with two stages to obtain a solution. The methodology is tested on the 24 and 6 Bus IEEE systems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract
This paper has as objective to model the principal Interlocking Schemes of switching, that belongs to Substation configurations of the Colombian Electric System for a voltage level of 230 KV. The modeling of the Interlocking Scheme will be used in a mathematic formalism such as Hierarchical High Level Petri Nets (H.H.L.P.N.). Once having obtained the model in the (H.H.L.P.N.) it's simulated in STATEFLOW computational toolbox of MATLAB designed to work with state finite machines, that required translate the H.H.L.P.N. to automata finite.
