For many small and mid-sized factory managers, the question often arises: "Can programmable logic controllers (PLCs) actually help my facility save money, or are they just for the industry giants?" In ...

Instructions in a program arranged in a prescribed order to solve a problem. Give a requirement to several programmers, each is likely to create different program logic. As long as the program works, ...

In part one of this series, we looked at the PLC’s internal architecture, briefly discussed Ladder Logic programming, Human-Machine Interfaces, advantages of the PLC’s ability to react consistently ...

Capturing data signals during embedded system design can prove challenging. Modern logic analyzers make data acquisition tasks easier by providing advanced triggering capabilities that get to the root ...

Inductive logic programming (ILP) and machine learning together represent a powerful synthesis of symbolic reasoning and statistical inference. ILP focuses on deriving interpretable logic rules from ...
