Hello Rizmi,

Here on Control.com, there are some other areas of the site you might investigate:

Our Links page is at
http://www.control.com/control_com/contained_pages/links_pageIt contains references to many online automation and control magazines, professional organizations, and many other sites organized according to the topics covered in our forum.

Also, on our home page www.control.com, look near the top of the central column for the heading "Cool Stuff". Here are links to each topic area of the forum: Business, Engineering, HMI, PLCS, Software, and more. When you go to each of these topic pages, you'll find links to relevant tutorials and white papers at the bottom of most pages (following the collection of past messages).

Good luck!

Some suggestions for magazine sites:

ISA for its 3 magazines InTech, Industrial Computing, Motion Control and
refereed journal ISA Transactions: www.isa.org
Managing Automation: www.managingautomation.com
Control Magazine: http://www.controlmagazine.com/ct/index.html
Sensors Magazine: www.sensorsmag.com

I'm sure there are lots more but these will get you started.
