This paper aims at discussing possible automation and control system architectures based on fieldbus networks in which the controllers can be implemented either in a centralized or in a distributed form.
Before the family leaves their house, they set the home automation controller to holiday mode.
The architecture is based on the use of software agents distributed among networked automation controllers, which together autonomously cooperate to control and reconfigure the ship's systems.
Trends in control and automation show an increase in data processing and communication in embedded automation controllers.
The framework concerns equipment found within the context of an automation system on the field network level, i.e., Programmable Logic Controller (PLC), Distributed Control System (DCS), actuator, sensor, wired fieldbus, and in addition wireless networks.
The control system comprised a controller made up of a processor unit (PM851K01) and an automation system (IndustrialIT 800×A 5.0; both ABB, Malmö, Sweden).
Robust controller synthesis is of great practical interest and its automation is a key concern in control system design.

The fieldbuses take more and more a major place in automation systems, in embedded systems, and in building automation.
Air traffic controllers and technicians had fought the new equipment, the Standard Terminal Automation Replacement System, or Stars, but representatives of each group said they were now satisfied.
