Abstract
A demand response (DR) architecture performs processes for use in an electrical power network. The DR architecture performs a method for selecting a process to use for scheduling devices. The method includes receiving, by a demand response controller, demand response specific input. The method includes determining a process to use to schedule device running time patterns, based on the received input. The method further includes executing the determined process.
