As power systems increasingly operate under stressed conditions, computer simulation will play a large role in control and security assessment. Commercial packages routinely fail or give erroneous results when used to simulate stressed systems. Understanding the underlying numerical algorithms is imperative to correctly interpret the results of commercial packages.
