This describes a proposed reference architecture. It is not a shipping product and no vendor partnership is claimed or implied. Interfaces and standards conformance are specification intent; quantities are design targets.
Plant state to scheduler
Generation availability, thermal headroom, and maintenance state are scheduler inputs rather than external surprises.
Flexible vs firm workloads
Work is classified by deferability. Flexible batch work absorbs variability; firm work is protected and scheduled against guaranteed capacity.
Throttle, defer, migrate
Available responses are bounded and explicit. The scheduler operates within limits set by the plant, not the other way round.
Plant has priority
Where compute demand and plant safety conflict, plant constraints win. That precedence is designed in, not configured.
Requires the scheduler and the plant supervisory layer to share a data model. This is the principal software integration in the architecture.
