VISION 2002 Network an architecture for the future.
Santosh J. Nayak · JAPAN TAPPI JOURNAL · 1986
The VISION 2002 Network architecture provides the modularity and power required of distributed control systems. Given that a user's needs continually change the software oriented design delivers the flexibility to satisfy any situation. It is particulary suitable for plantwide applications because of the inherent global database and the ease of using it. Plant optimization, reporting, data logging and the linking of the process database with data processing applications are a natural extension to the processing needs. It does allow a user to start small-with a instrumentation or reporting system, and allows the system to grow to any size.
