Description

EDF,as an operator of nuclear power plants, is upgrading its practices and methods by integrating the latest progress in information technologies through a series of innovative projects. For instance a new technology is developed and it will soon allows information to be passed from one system to another system while keeping a level of no-intrusion security almost as high as a physical isolation of the 2 systems. This new technology will open the way for virtual reality, interactive graphs, wireless sensors, wireless communication to be broadly used without jeopardizing safety and security. (A.C.)
