This paper provides a design for a PLC-based, variable-frequency governing, pressure-constant, automatic water-supply control system. This design is based on the current situations at the water supply plants found in small and medium cities in China. In this control system, the pressure signal across the pipe network is acquired by pressure sensors and then transmitted to PID modules in the PLC in order to control switching between pump motors. At the same time, the PLC is connected with a personal computer for industrial control purposes. On this computer, monitoring and control software has been installed in order to monitor and control the pressure-constant water-supply system on a real-time basis.

A greenhouse monitoring and control system based on Zigbee networks was developed. This system consists of greenhouse data acquisition controller and greenhouse remote monitoring and control software. The system could monitor temperature and humidity, soil water content and concentration of carbon dioxide in greenhouse and could save these greenhouse data to database. Greenhouse acquisition controller had two kinds of control modes, including local manual control mode and remote wireless control mode in monitoring center. Greenhouse remote monitoring and control software can collect, display and record the collected data, also can control greenhouse environment. According to the current indoor temperature, the target temperature and the offset temperature, PID control method is used for temperature control in greenhouse. The system is implemented using low power wireless components, and easy to be installed. A good wireless solution is provided by this system for centralized management of the greenhouse group.

Monitoring and control systems in the energy sector are specialized information structures that are not governed by the same information technology standards as the rest of the world’s information systems. Such industrial control systems are also used to handle important infrastructures, including smart grids, oil and gas facilities, nuclear power plants, water management systems, and so on. Industry equipment is handled by systems connected to the internet, either via wireless or cable connectivity, in the present digital age. Further, the system must work without fail, with the system’s availability rate being of paramount importance. Furthermore, to certify that the system is not subject to a cyber-attack, the entire system must be safeguarded against cyber security vulnerabilities, threats, and hazards. In addition, the article looks at and evaluates cyber security evaluations for industrial control systems, as well as their possible impact on the accessibility of industrial control system operations in the energy sector. This research work discovers that the hesitant fuzzy-based method of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) and the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) is an operational procedure for estimating industrial control system cyber security assessments by understanding the numerous characteristics and their impacts on cyber security industrial control systems. The author evaluated the outputs of six distinct projects to determine the quality of the outcomes and their sensitivity. According to the results of the robustness analysis, alternative 1 shows the utmost effective cybersecurity project for the industrial control system. This research work will be a conclusive reference for highly secure and managed monitoring and control systems.

Today's Industrial Control Applications are done by Remote Process only. Lab VIEW Software plays major role in Industrial Monitoring and control systems. In this paper i am going to discuss about Lab View based induction motor drive control system. It is One of the most common applications required in remote control and monitoring. Drive control system has various types of controller, in order to perform some actions such as control the speed, forward and reverse turning direction of the motor. This approach can be done by Lab VIEW programming, and with the rise of the technology, Ethernet module will be used in order to achieve the remote control system. Lab VIEW is a human machine interfaces design software that is user friendly. It can be easily communicate with different hardware.

Efficient control of DO may increase energy savings, improve productivity, and enhance sustainability for aquaculture. A new monitoring and control system of variable frequency aeration based on PID has been designed. It can real-time monitor environmental parameters such as PH, DO, temperature, and the height of water. In addition, it can control DO in time. According to the actual changes of DO, the frequency converter automatically controls the aerator’s work. The experiment indicates that the relative error of sensor’s measuring DO is controlled in ±1.3%.The system works stably and achieved the function that it can collect environment data automatically, and manage data in real time.

Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are now considered one of the best remote sensing techniques for gathering data over large areas. They are now being used in the industry sector as sensing tools for proactively solving or preventing many issues, besides quantifying production and helping to make decisions. UAVs are a highly consistent technological platform for efficient and cost-effective data collection and event monitoring. The industrial Internet of things (IIoT) sends data from systems that monitor and control the physical world to data processing systems that cloud computing has shown to be important tools for meeting processing requirements. In fog computing, the IoT gateway links different objects to the internet. It can operate as a joint interface for different networks and support different communication protocols. A great deal of effort has been put into developing UAVs and multi-UAV systems. This paper introduces a smart IIoT monitoring and control system based on an unmanned aerial vehicle that uses cloud computing services and exploits fog computing as the bridge between IIoT layers. Its novelty lies in the fact that the UAV is automatically integrated into an industrial control system through an IoT gateway platform, while UAV photos are systematically and instantly computed and analyzed in the cloud. Visual supervision of the plant by drones and cloud services is integrated in real-time into the control loop of the industrial control system. As a proof of concept, the platform was used in a case study in an industrial concrete plant. The results obtained clearly illustrate the feasibility of the proposed platform in providing a reliable and efficient system for UAV remote control to improve product quality and reduce waste. For this, we studied the communication latency between the different IIoT layers in different IoT gateways.

The article renders the special features of the design of a tracked mobile robot (MR) for moving over inclined ferromagnetic surfaces while performing specified technological operations. There is conducted a synthesis of the functional structure and selective technological parameters (such as control coordinates) of the computerized monitoring and control system (CMCS) intended for use with this MR. Application of the CMCS with the proposed functional structure allows substantially increasing the accuracy of the MR monitoring and control, which in turn provides for a considerable enhancement in the quality and economic efficiency of the operations on processing of large ferromagnetic surfaces.
