Fundamentals of Automatic Process Control

Chemistry

Modern plants require operators and engineers to have thorough knowledge of instrumentation hardware as well as good operating skills. Chemical engineers need to know about the appropriate use of both control hardware and software and must be able to select/write computer programs that interface the hardware and software to run a plant effectively. This book provides an integrated introduction to the hardware and software of automatic control systems. It solves problems from the GATE examination and provides explanations for each solution. It also includes various examples of control systems commonly used in plants, Laplacian mathematics with solutions, as well as virtual laboratory software.

Cloud Enterprise Architecture

Software Networking & Security

This book examines enterprise architecture (EA) in the context of the surging popularity of Cloud computing. It explains the transformation of EA resulting from the strategically significant convergence that cloud computing can achieve. Chapters cover each of the contributing architectures of EA, illustrating the current and impending implications of the Cloud on each of them. The author ties together these topics with chapters on Cloud integration and composition architecture. He also examines the Enterprise Cloud, federated Clouds, and the vision to establish the InterCloud.
