...8/24/2014 An Overview on Industrial Automation - Structures & Technologies To resolve the automation and control issues, industries use the ever changing technologies in control systems for efficient production or manufacturing processes. These requires the high quality and reliable control systems. New trends in industrial automation deals with latest control devices and communication protocols to control field devices like control valves and other final control elements. Some of the smart devices or instruments used in automated industry has the ability to control the processes and also communication capabilities without interfacing to other field level control devices like PLC’s. What is Industrial Automation? Industrial automation is the use of various control devices like PC’s/PLC’s/DCS, used to have control on various operations of an industry without significant intervention from humans and to provide automatic control performance. In industries, control strategies use a set of technologies which are implemented to get the desired performance or output, making the automation system most essential for industries. A ut omat ed proc es s in indus t ries Industrial automation involves usage of advanced control strategies like cascade controls, modern control hardware devices as PLC’s,sensors and other instruments for sensing the control variables, signal conditioning equipments to connect the signals to the control devices, drives and other significant final...

...Learning Objectives - OSI Overview After working with the content of the OSI model overview, you should be able to: Draw a diagram showing how communication takes place between two hosts on a network and the software and hardware objects involved in that communication. Describe the role of layered architectures in networks and data communications. Differentiate between the logical and physical structure of a network. Describe the use and importance of protocols in networking. Describe what data is accessible at each layer of the OSI model during communication and the potential risks avoided based on the placement of protection mechanisms at each layer. Description - OSI Overview Welcome to the OSI model. In this learning object, we will describe each of the layers of the OSI model and its associated protocols. The seven layers of the OSI model are physical, data link, network, transport, session, presentation, and application. We start with this overview, where you will learn how the seven layers work together to provide to users a seamless integration and operation of functions across networks worldwide in a way that potentially eliminates any indication of where the computing Protocols - Application Layer The protocols associated with the application layer include: DNS (Domain Name Service): resolves domain names to IP addresses FTP (File Transfer Protocol): transfers data over a network from one computer to another HTTP (Hypertext...

...Systems Analysis and Design Seventh Edition End of Chapter Solutions Chapter NINE System Architecture ANSWERS TO CASE-SIM: SCR ASSOCIATES CASE-SIM: SCR ASSOCIATES Assignments 1. Jesse wants me to recommend a vendor who offers an ERP strategy. I need to review SAP and Oracle Web sites, and at least two others that offer ERP solutions, and reply to her with the results and the reasons for my recommendations. Answers will vary. Students should realize that SCR foresees a dynamic future. With this in mind, an ERP strategy would be highly desirable. Students should have a basic understanding of ERP. When they research on the Internet, students should be able to find more material they can use in their recommendations. For reference purposes, the following screens are provided: [pic] [pic] 2. Visit SCR’s data library to review SCR’s network configuration and then send Jesse a recommendation for the TIMS system architecture. She wants me to suggest an overall client/server design, number of tiers, and network topology. She also asked me to comment on these issues: legacy data, Web-centricity, scalability, security, and batch processing that might be needed. Jesse said it was OK to make reasonable assumptions in my proposal to her. Student answers will vary. Students should start by viewing the SCR network shown in the Data Library. Based on information in this chapter and previous SCR assignments, students should be able to form an opinion...

It consists of generation, transmission, and distribution subsystems, which used to belong to the same electric utility in a given geographical area. But, currently, the electric power industry is in transition from large, vertically integrated utilities providing power at regulated rates to an industry that will incorporate competitive companies selling unbundled power at possibly lower rates. With this new structure, which will include separate generation, distribution, and transmission companies with an open-access policy, comes the need for tighter control strategies. The strategies must maintain the level of reliability that consumers not...

Sloan School of Management on May 21, 1993, in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the Degree of Master of Science in Management ABSTRACf In an attempt to build better products faster, companies have employed simultaneous engineering, which requires the aggressive overlapping of product development tasks. In doing so, the complexity of product development projects has been dramatically increased, along with the risks of failure. Since product development projects represent a stream of information that results in new or revised products. nlore efficient methods to enhance this complex flow of information will improve the development process. This thesis explores the transfer of information within product development teams with the ultimate goal of improving the process of product introduction. Many barriers to communication exist within the development process, whether organizational, structural, or cultural. This work serves as a paradigm for predicting and...

...1 Community Health (C228) Task 1 Megan Smith Student # 000473853 October 10, 2015 Community Health Task 1 2 Communities are often what shape and instill a sense of belonging for people. One such community is Northridge, which is a neighborhood located in the San Fernando Valley and is part of Los Angeles County. According to available data, there are 52,776 residents in Northridge, and diversity is a key element. A snapshot of Northridge can be seen as 49.5% whites, hispanics/latinos 50.8%, Asians 14.5%, African Americans 5.4% and others 4.6%. Along those lines, 7.6% are nonEnglish speaking and a large percentage of these residents speak languages other than English in the home. Families (married with children) make up 24.1% of households with single parents accounting for 11.8% of the residents (Lacounty.gov). Summary of Tools Population Economic Status Assessment. The median household income for Northridge in 2013 was $81,511, which is relatively high compared to the median income for California which is $61,632 (Northridge Neighborhood). While the median income is high, one source of data states 20% one in five residents of Los Angeles County receive public assistance (L.A. Times. 20% in Los Angeles County Receive Public Aid).
