Abstract :
Manufacturing environments are currently largely isolated from the wider community of general purpose networking and software technologies. This paper explores strategies for developing distributed computing solutions for industrial environments. It offers a case study which introduces emerging technologies and demonstrates how they can be engineered to bridge between proprietary industrially based software technologies such as Active X.
