Servers in SCADA applications

Conference ·
OSTI ID:427908
The rise of computerized data acquisition, storage and reporting systems has been driven by industries demand for advanced troubleshooting aids and continual, measurable process and product quality improvements. As US companies entered into global competition they discovered ever stiffer customer requirements. These requirements were especially stiff in the auto industry where the Japanese set a very high standard using SPC and other world class manufacturing methods. The architecture of these SCADA (supervisory control and data acquisition) systems has gone through several evolutionary stages over the last few years. This paper examines this evolution from the mainframe computer architecture used in the 1970`s, to the multi-tiered scheme of the 1980`s to the client-server architecture emerging today.
