Abstract

Design and development of Industrial automation systems are undergoing rapid transformation from being islands of automation to large network of Reconfigurable, service based systems. Development of a Low Cost Industrial Automation and Control System Framework based on Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) using OSGi Framework for rapid application deployment has been attempted here. Objective is to develop a user-friendly, Platform and Hardware Independent Industrial Automation System using Free and Open Source Software (FOSS) and COTS Hardware. The developed prototype successfully integrates a SCADA system, which has real time data acquisition and controls various industrial applications using Extensible Messaging and Presence Protocol (XMPP). The prototype also provides informative Graphical User Interface (GUI) for the ease of use, process visualization and remote controllability. An Alarm Event Handling Service with an integrated Short Message Service (SMS) and Remote Service Invocation are the salient features of the developed system. Implementations using Interactive Graphical SCADA System (IGSS) an industry standard SCADA software used world-wide, proves that the work is scalable as required for real-world applications.
