Requirements to the design of local automation systems for web-based telecontrol

摘要

The increased popularity and availability of off-the-shelf internet technologies raise a new trend for industrial tele-automation solutions. Most industrial automation systems are offered today with add-on web components for tele-control. This offers an easy integration of these modules into existing local automation solutions and allows the use of advanced tele-control functionality even in small size automation projects. The paper shows that the application of tele-control functionality demands also for new automation system design aspects. Based on the analysis of experiences from conventional tele-control system design some design requirements to web-based tele-control systems are derived.
