Abstract :
After more than ten years of experience with applications of fieldbus in automation technology, the industry has started to develop and adopt Real-Time Ethernet (RTE) solutions. There already exists now more than ten proposed solutions. International Electrotechnical Commission standards are trying to give a guideline and selection criteria based on recognized indicators for the user.
