Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date October 2008 A ProcessControl Network PCN is a communications telecommunications network network that is used to transmit instructions and data between control and measurement units and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition SCADA equipment.These networks have, over the years, used many of the technologies and topologies utilised in other network applications. However, ProcessControl Networks PCNs have several special requirements that must be met in order for the solution to be acceptable to the industry. These requirements are, in no particular order Robustness, Determinacy, Compatibility. Robustness includes requirements such as connection redundancy, reduced sensitivity to Radio Frequency Interference Electromagnetic Interference EMI , and good error checking and correction. Determinacy involves assuring that each device is guaranteed access to the network, and in many cases mechanisms to allow priority information such as alarms through the system. Compatibility allows SCADA and Distributed Control System s DCS from various manufacturers to communicate with control and measurement equipment from others. Many early PCNs were serial based, using low level standards such as Electronic Industries Alliance EIA RS 422 and EIA RS 485 with proprietary Communications protocol protocols on top. One of the de facto standardization standard s which is now becoming an open standard is Modbus , originally from Modicon. Many PCNs used token ring token passing based protocols because they are essentially deterministic. Both Allen Bradley and Eurotherm utilised such mechanisms. Many of the measurement and control unit manufacturers signed up to the Fieldbus consortium but rather than one standard emerging each manufacturer promoted their own standard leading to a myriad, and confusing, range of physical and logical system s.

The most common goals are minimizing cost, maximizing throughput, and or efficiency. This is one of the major quantitative property quantitative tools in industrial decision making. When optimizing a process, the goal is to maximize one or more of the process specifications, while keeping all others within their constraints. Areas Fundamentally, there are three parameters that can be adjusted to affect optimal performance. They are Equipment optimization The first step is to verify that the existing equipment is being used to its fullest advantage by examining operating data to identify equipment bottlenecks. Operating procedures Operating procedures may vary widely from person to person or from shift to shift. Automation ... control and run the plant in manual. Control optimization In a typical processing plant, such as a chemical plant or oil refinery , there are hundreds or even thousands of control loops. Each control loop is responsible for controlling one part of the process, such as maintaining a temperature, level, or flow. If the control loop is not properly designed and tuned, the process runs below its optimum. The process will be more expensive to operate, and equipment will wear out prematurely. For each control loop to run optimally, identification of sensor, valve, and tuning problems is important. It has been well documented that over 35 of control loops typically have problems.

Where a text ...for process groups in data replication Virtual synchrony In POSIX conformant operating system s, a process group denotes a collection of one or more process computing process es. Process groups are used to control the distribution of signal computing signal s. A signal directed to a process group is delivered individually to all of the processes that are members of the group. Process groups are themselves grouped into sessions . Process groups are not permitted to migrate from one session to another, and a process may only create new process groups belonging to the same session as it itself belongs to. Processes are not permitted to join process groups that are not in the same session as they themselves are.
