Abstract
There was a time not many years ago when the transmission of information to and controlling devices and the logging of manufacturing and processing data were simply a routine part of the control engineering task. Without question, today, the tail is wagging the dog, so to speak—with communication systems, including the quest for communication standards, now demanding much of the creative thinking of the practitioners of automation technology. And this situation, of course, has arisen for many excellent reasons that have been repeated many times over in the professional automation literature.
