The emergence of industrial Ethernet as the future physical and transport medium of choice puts the whole issue back in the melting pot. Today there is widespread recognition of Profibus as the clear leader for factory automation applications in Europe, but less widely appreciated is the fact that Interbus runs a surprisingly close second, that DeviceNet rides the manufacturing roost in North America, that Modbus, without the benefit of inclusion in either or any IEC standard, is still the protocol of choice for a large proportion of industrial automation applications or that, in Asia, CC-Link, hardly mentioned in Europe or North America, leads the field, again without benefit of an IEC accolade. Move the spotlight to the process automation sector and, if anything, the picture becomes even more confused. True, there are only two serious contenders: Profibus and Foundation Fieldbus (FF), but they can't even agree between themselves what actually constitutes a process application.","PeriodicalId":401124,"journal":{"name":"Computing & Control Engineering Journal","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125865591","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}

In 1997 VIPA formed its ASIC design centre and a new subsidiary called Profichip and began working on Profibus interface chips and other devices, such as ASICs that consolidated much of the functionality of a PLC. Proflchip's next step in PLC evolution is to merge all the functions on its CPU 517 Slot into one piece of silicon, which it calls the PLC 7100.

Industrial computer-based processors, such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs), have been developed to perform control functions and provide the operator with visual information to allow him to operate and control the plant. The PLCs first used by United Utilities had limited functionality and display capability. Nowadays the equipment used typically comprises several networked PLCs and colour human machine interfaces (HMIs) offering both graphical and tabular displays. Connection of the telemetry outstation to the plant control and monitoring system is commonly via the PLC network. The outstation accesses data tables within the PLC memory to avoid the need for costly telemetry I/O and its associated wiring.","PeriodicalId":401124,"journal":{"name":"Computing & Control Engineering Journal","volume":"151 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133508032","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}

These proved hard to write and to interpret; hard to make complete and correct; but uncomfortably easy to make ambiguous and unstable given the extended life of many industrial contracts. Scenarios, along with related structures such as goals and viewpoints, are often the best remedies for these ills. We have spent part of our time over the last two years editing and contributing to a multiauthor book about scenarios, to try to bring some of the benefits of research and industrial good practice to a wider audience. The basic idea of a scenario is a story, told from the point of view of one or several people who want to achieve a given result in the world. The most elaborate ways of describing scenarios include use case models, flow charts (e.g. UML's activity diagrams, with or without swimlanes), and message sequence diagrams.","PeriodicalId":401124,"journal":{"name":"Computing & Control Engineering Journal","volume":"66 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115730002","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 has allowed for more complex algorithms to be developed that can learn, see, identify, and guide. Learning algorithms for machine vision are essential for many of the applications that require inspection and guidance. These algorithms typically require some type of learning step before the actual inspection can take place. Some of the algorithms that fall into this category include pattern matching, geometric matching, colour matching, colour pattern matching, classification and optical character recognition (OCR). Many industries rely on these algorithms to speed-up manufacturing, increase yields, and improve quality.","PeriodicalId":401124,"journal":{"name":"Computing & Control Engineering Journal","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2004-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125240123","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}
