The International Purdue Workshop on Industrial Computer Systems and Its Work in Promoting Computer Control Guidelines and Standards

This short description is an attempt to show some of the extensive standards work now being carried out by the Purdue Workshop in the field of the applications of digital computers to plant data collection, monitoring, and other automatic control tasks. The continued success of this work will depend upon the cooperation with and acceptance of the overall results of these developments by the vendor and user company managements and the help of their personnel on the various committees involved.
