Process management tomorrow

Technology Push- Embedded process management through

integrating process, machinery and automation knowhow

- IT and automation networks merge into one network

- Smart sensors and actuators with condition monitoring capabilities

- Best experts always close to you through remote diagnostics

- Mobile user interface provides freedom

- Internet+Wireless=Internet everywhere

Market Pull

- Minimize operational costs

- Maximized return on assets through lifecycle management

- Focus on core competencies

- IT and automation as a competitive tool to streamline processes

- Eco-efficiency

There always needs to be a market demand and justification to use technology as a tool to implement applications that provide the return

on investment required by normal business practice.

Distruptive or emerging technologies from automation technology point of viewGeneral ICT development rules• Consumer driven hardware technology development dominates

- PC and other commercial hardware

- Hardware to be seen predominantly as a resource and not as a major potential to make money

• Defacto standards rule the world

- Ethernet replaces fieldbuses (except for EXi environments)

• Importance of software

- Software architecture is really the future automation application architecture

• Safety and Security coming more into picture
