Ray Klump earned a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in August, 2000. His dissertation, A Computational Framework for Assessing Voltage Security Using Energy Methods, developed an algorithm for predicting the maximum amount of power an electric utility system can serve before a blackout occurs. From May, 1996, through August, 1998, he worked as General Engineer at Mid-America Interconnected Network in Lombard, IL, where he developed a software platform for calculating maximum power system transfer capabilities and posting these numbers to a secure web site used by marketing and reliability firms. Starting in October, 1997, Dr. Klump began working for PowerWorld Corporation, a software manufacturer based in Champaign, IL. Working first on a part-time basis and then in a full-time capacity, Dr. Klump wrote software for calculating and displaying the conditions of an electric power system in ways that help system operators and engineers understand the system much more easily than they could if they used only tables and graphs. Dr. Klump continues to work part-time as Software Engineer and Senior consultant for PowerWorld, where he is the principle developer of PowerWorld's Retriever product, which displays the real-time measurements of an electric power system as reported by phasor measurement units and SCADA systems. Dr. Klump began his career at Lewis in August, 2001. He has taught undergraduate courses in C++, Java, software engineering, database design and implementation, artificial intelligence, computer graphics, microcomputer software applications, and college mathematics. Dr. Klump has published 18 papers, mostly in the field of computer applications for power systems. He has consulted, through PowerWorld, for projects with Commonwealth Edison, City Water Light and Power of Springfield, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the Bonneville Power Administration, Southern Company, Entergy, Mid-America Interconnected Network, and PJM.
