Dans la jungle des réseaux de terrain : vers un guide de choix dédié automatisation d'applications : Les réseaux de terrain : applications pratiques

- The type of production environment will largely determine the predominant criterion for an automatic control system (safety, availability, maintainability, etc.). And the choice of a field-bus system will also depend on factors such as application size, data throughput, and interaction of time considerations. Other important criteria include cost, confidentiality, and compatibility with existing equipment. - To help users select the most suitable field-bus solutions for their applications, CIAME is publishing a field-bus selection guide. This organization is also working on a tool for designing intelligent sensors.
