2. Industrial control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_control_system

   An industrial control system (ICS) is an electronic control system and associated instrumentation used for industrial process control. Control systems can range in size from a few modular panel-mounted controllers to large interconnected and interactive distributed control systems (DCSs) with many thousands of field connections.

3. Operational technology - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operational_Technology

   The term usually describes environments containing industrial control systems (ICS), such as supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) systems, distributed control system (DCS), remote terminal units (RTU) and programmable logic controllers (PLC), as well as dedicated networks and organization units. The built environment, whether ...

4. Industrial process control - Wikipedia

   Example of level control system of a continuous stirred-tank reactor. The flow control into the tank would be cascaded off the level control. A further example is shown. If a control valve were used to hold level in a tank, the level controller would compare the equivalent reading of a level sensor to the level setpoint and determine whether ...

5. Instrumentation and control engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_and...

   Automatic control manages a device without the need of human inputs for correction, such as cruise control for regulating a car's speed. Control systems engineering activities are multi-disciplinary in nature. They focus on the implementation of control systems, mainly derived by mathematical modeling. Because instrumentation and control play a ...

6. Control system security - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_system_security

   Control system security, or automation and control system (ACS) cybersecurity, is the prevention of (intentional or unintentional) interference with the proper operation of industrial automation and control systems. These control systems manage essential services including electricity, petroleum production, water, transportation, manufacturing ...
