- Description: Abstract: This paper presents an optimal placement of TCSC which is a FACTS (Flexible Alternative Current transmission Systems) controller in order to increase the loadbility of the system. The optimization problem is solved using the genetic algorithm. In this study the availablity of the budget is taken in consideration. The result show that the increase in loadability can be restricted by the availability of budget and also that beyond a certain budget there will not be any further increase in loadability. Also beyond a certain number of TCSC there will be no further increase in system loadability.

- Description: Abstract: The current smart campus frameworks available does not fully suit African universities, there is a need to develop a smart campus framework that will suits African universities. The framework used in European univerties is modified to suits African universities. A South African university was used as case study and the results show the strength and shortcomings of this campus in becoming a smart campus.
