Since about 2015, when Don Bartusiak, the then chief engineer at ExxonMobil Research & Engineering, publicly advocated for the development of a new, standards-based, open—yet secure—process control ...

Open-Loop vs. Closed-Loop So where exactly does open-loop end and closed-loop begin? The line seems clear for some systems, but muddy for others. How much feedback is enough to qualify?

The system is made up of three main pieces of hardware. The first part is the core (or server), which is essentially a Linux PC running an OSC (Open Sound Control) server.

This method requires a more complex control scheme and is costlier to implement and maintain. Since closed-loop heating relies upon various components for precision feedback and optimized control, the ...

Years before groups like the Open Process Automation Forum (OPAF) were attempting to build an open and secure control architecture, Bedrock Automation had already built it. Albert Rooyakkers, Bedrock ...

Students in Michigan Tech's graduate certificate in Control Systems program mathematically model and analyze complex dynamic processes and apply feedback control laws capable of stabilizing systems ...
