In universities, distributed control systems are the most practical professional course close to actual production processes. The book is divided into 7 chapters. Chapter 1, Introduction, introduces the basic content, classification, and development overview of computer control systems, focusing on the characteristics and properties of distributed control systems. Chapter 2 introduces the architecture of distributed control systems. Chapter 3 focuses on explaining the hardware system of distributed control systems. Chapter 4 briefly introduces the composition, structure, and main equipment of the software system of distributed control systems. Chapter 5 focuses on explaining the communication network system of distributed control systems, with main content including the basic principles of industrial digital communication, control network standards and protocols in distributed control systems, and fieldbuses. Chapter 6 introduces the performance indicators of distributed control systems. Chapter 7 explores the engineering design technology and application examples of distributed control systems, listing practical applications of distributed control systems. When writing this book, the author strives to clarify the basic concepts, principles, characteristics, and methods of the system, adhering to a practical approach with a focus on engineering applications. Exercises are provided at the end of each chapter to help readers master the learned content. This book is suitable for senior undergraduate or graduate elective courses with 32–48 class hours, as well as for vocational college students as a reference. It can also serve as a training textbook for automation professionals by administrative departments and as a valuable reference for technical personnel engaged in automatic control engineering and automation systems.
