GNodeAlias

GNodes have structured, mutable identifiers called GNodeAliases that serve several important functions in GridWorks:

  • taken together, they help define the topology of the electric grid

  • they provide organizational structure to the communication between actors, as well as to the time-series state data generated.

Note for most developers, alias usually means an ephemeral or temporary moniker. GNodeAlias is an exception to this rule.
