What Is SCADA and How It Increases Efficiency

By John Miller on Oct 10, 2018

Supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) is a control system architecture that uses computers, networked data communications and graphical user interfaces for high-level process supervisory management, but uses other peripheral devices such as programmable logic controller(PLC) and discrete PID controllers to interface with the process plant or machinery. The operator interfaces which enable monitoring and the issuing of process commands, such as controller set point changes, are handled through the SCADA computer system. However, the real-time control logic or controller calculations are performed by networked modules which connect to the field sensors and actuators.

What is That Symbol?

By John Miller on Sep 21, 2018

What is “”? 

The ∫ is the ‘Integral’ symbol. It is typically seen as a rite of passage for those who know what it is, but it represents much more than years of calculus and differential equations or the area under the curve. The Integral symbol in math means:  

A function of which a given function is the derivative, i.e., which yields that function when differentiated, and which may express the area under the curve of a graph of the function.
