The main objective of this paper is to develop a distributed model using grid environment through which on-line monitoring of multi-area power systems can be carried out continuously. Grid computing is a viable solution in order to exploit the enormous amount of computing power available across Internet to solve large interconnected power system problems. A grid service model is proposed for on-line monitoring of multi-area power systems, which provides solutions at specific intervals of time. The proposed model is designed in such a way that any node in the grid can provide the service, which can obtain the power system data from other client grid nodes and responds with solution. Hence the proposed model is highly distributed and has inherent features of scalability and reliability implicitly .
