Course Preamble

Stiff competition, higher quality standards and growing concerns of safety & environmental damage have pushed the Industrial sector to adapt state-of-the-art Automation Techniques for effective utilization of resources and optimized performance of the process plants. Automation applications span plant automation, discrete and batch process control, embedded machine control and manufacturing production line automation. In Industrial Automation the present trend is for closer integration of IT and OT. Operational Technology (OT) refers to computing systems that are used to manage these industrial operations. Most Industrial control systems (ICSs) fall into either a continuous process control system, typically managed via programmable logic controllers (PLCs), or discrete process control systems, that might use a PLC or some other batch process control device. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems display the process under control and provide access to control functions through Human Machine Interfaces (HMI).

The focus of the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is on connecting industrial assets, such as turbines, jet engines, and locomotives, to the cloud and to each other in meaningful ways. Field devices in process plants gather valuable additional data on their own condition and environment. Industry4.0 approaches like condition monitoring and predictive maintenance require this information. Both SCADA & IIoT platforms are used to increase overall productivity by integrating smart maintenance, reduce wastage, increase in efficiency and a decrease in downtime. Industrial IoT can effectively detect failures and trigger maintenance processes, autonomously reacting to unexpected changes in production. IIoT can provide ways to integrate legacy devices and legacy software seamlessly into the new technology landscape thereby improving cost and productivity. The growth of IIoT market is driven by increasing adoption of automation by small and midsized companies. SCADA along with IIoT enables monitoring, controlling, analysis and improvement of the industrial enterprise.
