Abstract:
An energy object extension to an industrial protocol having a comprehensive suite of attributes, messages and services utilized for the monitoring and control of energy consuming or producing resources by a manufacturing automation application is provided. The energy object includes an identifier associated with an energy resource that is associated with a manufacturing automation application and an energy type associated with the energy resource. This includes a measurement characteristic associated with the energy resource to facilitate energy management by the manufacturing automation application.
Abstract:
A network security system comprises a first component that generates an address for identifying a communicating device on a network. A second component receives the address generated by the first component and facilitates transitioning from an existent address to the generated address. Such transitioning is effectuated in order to protect the network against attack while providing seamless communications with respect to the communicating device.
