Facility Automation Products--Systems--Applications--Trends
Abstract
This paper reviews the current state of
technology as digital systems continue
rapid evolution and migration into
facility control and automation roles.
This digital evolution encompasses
control systems, management and
automation systems, and networking and
communication systems. As these three
technologies are slowly maturing, energy
conservative systems such as thermal
storage and cogeneration are being more
frequently used. Energy management
control strategies required for the
energy systems are more effective when
the global facility digital system
communication network and global data
base is considered and utilized.
As networked global digital control and
automation systems evolve, common global
data bases including manufacturing,
energy control, and process control are
being defined, and provided to provide a
new level of facility wide automated
management and control.
