2. Control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_system

   A control system manages, commands, directs, or regulates the behavior of other devices or systems using control loops. It can range from a single home heating controller using a thermostat controlling a domestic boiler to large industrial control systems which are used for controlling processes or machines.

3. Industrial process control - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_process_control

   Industrial process control (IPC) or simply process control is a system used in modern manufacturing which uses the principles of control theory and physical industrial control systems to monitor, control and optimize continuous industrial production processes using control algorithms. This ensures that the industrial machines run smoothly and ...

4. Industrial control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_control_system

   Industrial control system. An industrial control system ( ICS) is an electronic control system and associated instrumentation used for industrial process control. Control systems can range in size from a few modular panel-mounted controllers to large interconnected and interactive distributed control systems (DCSs) with many thousands of field ...

5. Plant (control theory) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_(control_theory)

   Plant (control theory) A plant in control theory is the combination of process and actuator. A plant is often referred to with a transfer function (commonly in the s-domain) which indicates the relation between an input signal and the output signal of a system without feedback, commonly determined by physical properties of the system. An ...

6. Distributed control system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_control_system

   e. A distributed control system ( DCS) is a computerized control system for a process or plant usually with many control loops, in which autonomous controllers are distributed throughout the system, but there is no central operator supervisory control. This is in contrast to systems that use centralized controllers; either discrete controllers ...

7. Instrumentation and control engineering - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Instrumentation_and...

   Instrumentation and control engineering. Instrumentation and control engineering (ICE) is a branch of engineering that studies the measurement and control of process variables, and the design and implementation of systems that incorporate them. Process variables include pressure, temperature, humidity, flow, pH, force and speed.
