Standards update: SCADA, TDM, and enterprise-control system integration

摘要

The ISA112, SCADA Systems, standards committee is developing a comprehensive standard covering best practices design, implementation, and long-term management of supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems. These fundamental systems can be found controlling and monitoring a wide range of industrial applications, including pipeline operations, electric transmission systems, rail and road systems, municipal water/wastewater infrastructure, and canals, tunnels, and bridges. Because of this range, the roles and usage of SCADA technology can vary considerably across industries and geographic areas. For this reason, a major focus of ISA112 has been to develop a set of standardized terminology that can be used for specifying, designing, implementing, and managing SCADA systems. The committee has also worked hard to develop an easily applicable ISA112 SCADA life cycle that can be applied to both large and small SCADA systems, regardless of industry.
