Abstract :
The need to manage the production in different industrial sectors creates a strong demand for process information. Information is generated and presented by a supervisory system, by collecting and treating raw data from the processes. Data can arrive from different physical processes and through different communication protocols and/or access media. This paper proposes an acquisition methodology to allow the supervisory system to access data independently of these characteristics of the process and of the communication channel
