Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) Systems for Industrial Automation and Control Systems in Industry 4.0

Abstract

In order to respond to the new production models specific to the fourth industrial revolution, a new paradigm of integrated industrial automation and control systems in industry 4.0 management is needed with new web, collaborative and intelligent applications to supervise production processes. The present work represents an analysis of the solutions for the management of production processes resulting from the combination of new technologies and applications conforming to the Industry 4.0 paradigms, in conjunction with SCADA technical solutions for the world of production. The solution that comes with this work is based on the synergy between two concepts, that of cyber-physical SCADA systems and human-centered production, which at first sight may seem antithetical, but which in reality are complementary to each other and actually represent a waysuitable for Industry 4.0. The research method was represented by the systematic analysis of the asynergy of the two concepts found in the specialized web of science literature, as well as corroborated with the real situation in industry 4.0.which is foreshadowed from day to day.
