We live in volatile times and manufacturing challenges have never been greater. Will you be ready to run when the next expansion happens? How do you determine the best outcomes to focus on and the associated ROI? Is there a

The industrial world has a long history of modernizing their process controls in order to keep production running efficiently and safely while minimizing downtime. Yet many are locked in established IIoT data historian solutions that are expensive, outdated, don’t interoperate

Simulation has been used in many years in the process industry, but now the industry is taking this to a higher level. From being used for smaller parts of the plant and operator training, now more and more of the

Cities are under pressure. More than two-thirds of the world’s population will live in urban areas by 2050. This is creating a wide range of challenges, such as the poor quality of air in Los Angeles, inefficient water systems in

The question is how to secure all these future connected buildings? Fifty years ago, when engineers invented the networking technologies that became the Internet, they never imagined the billions of devices we use today. They introduced something that turned out

The industrial world has a long history of modernizing their process controls in order to keep production running efficiently and safely while minimizing downtime. Yet many are locked in established data historian solutions that are costly and lack the methods

Industrial Control Systems have migrated from stand-alone isolated systems to interconnected systems. In a very standard environment, thousands of devices exist, operated by a more heterogeneous environment in more places than ever before. These interconnected systems leverage existing communication platforms

Spending on Artificial Intelligence (AI) Systems will reach $35.8 Billion in 2019, an increase of 44% compared to 2018. About 75% of enterprise applications will use AI by 2021, according to IDC. Discrete and process manufacturing will complete the top

As more Industrial Control Systems and end devices become connected to enterprise networks, the internet and cloud platforms, security continues to be a rising concern. These converged IT/OT networks introduce security vulnerabilities and challenges that operations managers and information security
