This paper will then describe specific threats to SCADA Systems and some sample hacking scenarios, and then rank these threats in a security matrix. The following sections after the security matrix describe why security for SCADA systems and control systems are typically overlooked, and what steps should be taken when considering SCADA Security.","PeriodicalId":294424,"journal":{"name":"2nd ISA/IEEE Sensors for Industry Conference,","volume":"259 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121441667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This current investigation focused on elucidating the deposition parameters required for obtaining suitable NiFe thin films. A photolithographic technique was used for masking the wires and selectively depositing the NiFe films. Electrodeposition parameters were established that yielded extremely fine crystallites that were strain sensitive in the operational load range intended for the sensors.","PeriodicalId":294424,"journal":{"name":"2nd ISA/IEEE Sensors for Industry Conference,","volume":"694 15","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133322506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A scalar network analyzer is used to measure the resonant frequency and the corresponding amplitude of the transmission parameter for the fundamental mode. The complex permittivity is estimated by inverting the measured parameters using by an algorithm based on Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The proposed sensor is extremely compact and guarantees a good accuracy for low permittivity material.

Also the admittance of the differential type actuator is derived taking the practical conditions into consideration, although it has no admittance in ideal case.

The validity of the admittance model is proved by comparing between the admittance model and the measured data. At the end, the distortion in the frequency response curve measured by a capacitive sensor is analyzed and it is concluded that the admittance of the actuator is the main cause of this distortion.","PeriodicalId":294424,"journal":{"name":"2nd ISA/IEEE Sensors for Industry Conference,","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-11-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122388488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
