Automation World can help. Join Automation World’s LinkedIn group, http://bit.ly/10UJ9S, and find colleagues sharing their insights and sources for answers to plant challenges. Recent discussions include Industrial Ethernet protocols, integrating tablet computers into an operator’s workflow, what education and tools are needed for today’s engineers, and how automation creates good jobs. The discussion threads can be a respite from your day, a connection to a colleague or the source of some great insight on new technology.
We look forward to seeing you there!
