Description

This paper reports on automatic control and instrumentation equipment. The use of micro-processor based systems has become widespread in the form of programmable control devices, computers and programmed systems dedicated to safety. The use of digital techniques has brought about important changes in numerous aspects of control and instrumentation systems, involving especially the improvement of operating conditions and performances while respecting the severest safety restrictions
