No doubt it could have been far worse - even catastrophic. An apparent misstep by the attackers behind the malware now known as TRITON/TRISIS that was discovered embedded in a Schneider Electric ...

ISA recently published Safety Instrumented System Design: A Life-Cycle Approach by Paul Gruhn PE, CFSE, and Simon Lucchini, CFSE, MIEAust CPEng. In this Q&A feature, both authors highlight the focus, ...

This publication provides specific recommendations on research reactor instrumentation and control systems and software important to safety, including instrumentation and control system architecture ...

To improve the safety of the operating environment, a holistic method for defining and evaluating the systems that aid an operator with the safe operation of a process unit is required. This approach ...

IIoT-ready instrumentation can quickly enable data-driven reductions in failures and downtime. The second law of thermodynamics states the total entropy—or natural disorder—of any system increases or ...

Based on the foundational IEC 61508 standard’s essential requirements, high-performance supervisory circuits can facilitate functional-safety compliance in safety instrumented systems and other ...
