As a student of engineering is necessary to analyze the different types of technologies used in industry. In fact, the knowledge of what is beyond my hands escapes but I like to think that what I research is relevant ...
The future of SCADA systems is linked to "information services company." The overall trend is to move all data including SCADA HTML format. This SCADA system integrated into a comprehensive database of the company. Improvements in hardware in the past were overshadowed by improvements in software. This will continue in the future. The companies will use WWW to access SCADA data from anywhere in the world. This will allow anyone in the company and beyond to access SCADA data.
The SCADA hardware side, improvements in smart sensors mean that it will continue to see a reduction in the price and size of sensors. Furthermore, while increasing functionality. Fieldbus systems, it seems, are becoming easier to install and use. The trend is to have a Fieldbus system can be installed by almost anyone and is plug and play. This will also reduce the repair time and cost because everything is modular. Smart sensors allow the user to see problems, SCADA software, to the lowest level of the sensor. The movement to a universal protocol is eclipsed slow at best and probably the case for the use of Ethernet as a common carrier for the data. Future systems will use many protocols but each protocol will be embedded in Ethernet packets within a 100 Mhz system compatible with OSI. We will see more use of optical cables and fiber radio for communication.
seeing the connection between SCADA and WSN (Wireless sensor networks), it is clear that sensors and their tendency to be more efficient is common in both fields of technology. "WSN-based SCADA? maybe it's a reality.
