Low Power Interactive Operating System and SCADA Based Universal Wireless Gateway for Automation Using Cloud Technology

Abstract

Over the past decade, automation has become a trend in every dimension of the technology namely industrial, automobile, aerospace, defence and information technology. But the automation in different fields demands different platforms. Therefore to achieve uniformity and congruity, this paper provides a UNIVERSAL WIRELESS GATEWAY FOR AUTOMATION to support the automation of all the above mentioned fields. SCADA (Supervisory control and Data Acquisition) and Cloud technologies are the two most rapidly evolving technologies in the last few years. The integration of automation with other technologies always escalates its resourcefulness. So an embedded system is proposed and built to endorse the collaboration of SCADA and Cloud technologies to achieve automation through supervision and control of a system or a set of systems from a remote place over different networks. A low power operating system design techniques is presented to avail the services of the input/output devices consuming less power. This paper also provides a platform to supervise and monitor a huge system and avail the cloud services using minimum resources and cost of implementation.
