Request a sales quotePlant Intelligent Automation and Digital Transformation is an expansive four volume collection reviewing every major aspect of the intelligent automation and digital transformation of power, process and manufacturing plants, from the specific control and automation systems pertinent to various power process plants through manufacturing and factory automation systems.
The fourth volume, Plant System Security and IIoT applications reviews the challenges of plant cybersecurity threats to newly digitized networks and their mitigation using IIoT security applications. In order to understand variations of controls in different plants, detailed discussions are presented on plant and industry types. Through appendices required additional details on various transmission media, SCADA/Telemetry, simulation, fault tolerance/fault tolerant network, electrical area classification, enclosure class and intrinsic safety have been included to make the entire volume consistent.
- Introduces modern analysis of advanced cyber threats, including Distributed Denial of Services (DDoS) attacks, together with security for control systems using IIoT, and firewall protection.
- Provides extensive conceptual and applied discussion of wireless communication and design and architecture of relevant Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems in plants.
- Reviews remote control and robotic automation strategies and control systems for a wide array of power, process and manufacturing plants.
Primary: Early career engineers dealing with plant automation, networking, system integration and digitization projects in the power, process or manufacturing industries. Plant managers.
Secondary: Researchers in electrical engineering, process engineering and mechanical engineering, instrumentation, and controls.
