SUMMARY:Hertfordshire Local Section: Operations Technology Evolution, by Ian Verhappen
UID:352
DESCRIPTION: \n\n       Ian Verhappen, of Willowglen Systems\n\n \n\nThe automation sector like any other microprocessor-based technology continues to evolve capabilities at exponential rates, however, its adoption in the operations technology (OT) domain lags significantly.\n\nIn the latter 1990’s it was fieldbus-based communications driving change, then it was packet-based ethernet networks, and now IoT and its industrial cousin IIoT. All of which have gained traction in the automation space, but to a lesser degree in the process industries.\nThis presentation will in addition to discussing the different generations of control systems for context examine some of the drivers for change and reasons why the adoption of each generation of technology lags in the OT domain and process industries in particular.\n\n \n\nTo join the event via Microsoft Teams please click here\n\n \n\n
