With the frequently happened aging electrical grid and extreme weather events, outage management and service restoration face the challenges of flexible scheduling multiple resources for different kinds of objectives. Previous research mainly focuses on the single restoration objective or single emergency resource management. This paper proposes a new emergency scheduling framework under the cyber-physical-social system (CPSS) perspective, which includes the scheduling of multiple components from CPSS, i.e., crew, mobile distributed generators, and resources. Under the framework, a novel co-scheduling model with the goal of minimizing time-consuming, cost, and shedding load are also built as a mixed-integer non-linear optimization model. Then we formulate this problem as advanced multiple salesmen traveling problem with a routing stage and a scheduling stage, and design a solution algorithm …
