Open control systems can be understood as multi-vendor control systems, composed of components that comply to open, non-proprietary standards, for hardware as well as for software. This is a general definition, but there might be other views of open control, other perceptions of the words and terms 'open' or "open control". As Open Control Laboratory director, I would be interested
to learn what "open control" means to you, whether you are a system integrator, an end-user, or a supplier of control components. What does "open control" mean to you in terms of components in a control system (HMIs, PLC, DCS), in terms of their architecture and the their granularity (very important!), in terms of
protocols between those components, etc. ?
