Automation Of Data Center Using Cisco Unified Computing System Director

The upgrade project consisted of the design & construction of a new Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) and Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition (SCADA) system to eventually replace the existing legacy Honeywell/Experion system and equipment which is nearing the end of its life cycle. The new chemical sludge handling PLC, incorporates hot standby Siemens S7400H processors utilising a Media Redundancy Protocol (MRP) remote Input/Output (RIO) network allowing simultaneous PLC and network failure without process interruption.

In fact, the other approach can be doing a pilot implementation at a factory or distribution centers, or only implement for only a few popular units. But this way can cost more time, efforts and cannot test the capability of the whole system. Also, with the investment in consultancy and purchasing the leading solutions from top ERP vendors, the NIBCO aim to get the new system run for all the business unit, and the real time running can also test the performance of the new system, also save cost and time for implementation. Running all at the same time can also help the testing of integration and cooperation among factories and distribution centers.

SCADA is one of the oldest methods to control data across a network. Unlike many other software’s used in the industry, SCADA can be used in any field, be it in electrical power control, mechanical machinery, civil projects, data managements etc. This versatility means more than one type of system, for example both electrical and mechanical systems can be controlled by one software from the same place at the same time.

CE 1.3.3 I studied plant system architecture and the interfaces with the distributed control system (DCS) and emergency control system (ESD) of Honeywell,as this was key aspect for interface. Since the data like signal values, alarms, trips etc. from MCMS was serially interfaced by either Modbus or OPC(OLE for Process Control) to DCS .The trip signals from MCMS system was hardwired signals to ESD, since these are very critical signals for machine shut down.

The control system of the automated warehouse include management/monitor computer, master PLC and lower PLC, which are connected by Modibus and wireless networks and can build up a complete multilevel computer monitoring system, as shown in Figure 2.2. The whole automated warehouse system integrated cargo storage, retrieval, distribution and transportation together, realizes intelligence operations in the whole system, and is an intelligent warehouse without any manual operation. (Yinghua Xue, Hongpeng

The conceptual framework for the deployed system is given bellow. The framework contains one Coordinator which is connected to the control station computer through USB cable, four routers and three sensor devices. Data packets from the sensor device are transmitted to the coordinator via multi-hop routing.

Amazon: Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale computing easier for developers. Amazon EC2 is simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon’s proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes, allowing you to quickly scale capacity, both up and down, as your computing requirements

BPOC was set up in the late 2002. BPOC was a cross-functional decision-making group created to set and drive corporate priorities for the company. The role of the BPOC was like the COO. BPOC had full formal authority to approve any IT initiatives. Though it did not fund the IT projects, it approved them. BPOC was created to set and drive the corporate priorities for

With the significantly increasing demand of electrical and civil services of the country resulting from the urbanization of India, VINSUN, an Indian civil engineering company, has expanded rapidly to meet market demand. Due to the growth of the company, VINSUN has experienced problems, such as information overloading and lack of accessibility to data when needed; VINSUN needs a data management system to manage their business information. The existing information management system is not well set up to fulfill VINSUN’s needed. Employees currently save their work on their local computers while VINSUN has unconnected workstations; it requires enormous effort to gather all data needed every time when there is a project.

Phacil understand that ABC ITSS program is moving to a Distributed Computing Environment (DCE), which must support their current community and allow for future growth. This includes end to end / total life cycle support of it IT eco-system.

IT Automation – Responsible for the population and maintenance of the Workforce Information Database; development, provision, and maintenance

Amble number of challenges will be faced while implementing this technology. As the operation of many tasks will be at different intervals of time, synchronization is a concern for parallelism between sub systems. Also testing this system will pose a challenge as it would be different and require special tools and

A hospitals HIM director needs to understand how to maintain the integrity and security of all financial and clinical data as it travels seamlessly across a network of different applications. For this to happen, the applications must first go through a hardwired translation process to ensure proper communication between the various software systems; this is called integration. However, none of this is possible without interfaces which connect the multitude of hardware devices and software applications that are used throughout the different departments in a hospital system.

The UAS Control Segment Architecture (UCS) is a system interface originally focused on developing interoperability software for UAS ground control stations (Department of Defense, 2013). UCS standards have expanded beyond the original intent of a common open architecture for UAS greater than 20 pounds; the maritime Program Executive Office (PEO) is exploring USC in many of its unmanned platforms (Department of Defense, 2013). UCS is able to eliminate the “stove pipe” acquisition process with the adoption of common standards for the ground control segments which provides interoperability as well as reducing life cycle costs (Blais, 2016). UCS interoperability addresses the following:
