Objectives

The objective of this course is to present:
- The organizational model and its hierarchical organization. Control Systems and Industrial Supervision.
- Command and control architectures for industrial including requirements associated with the various levels.
- The industrial product, techniques and associated tools: design, rapid prototyping, CAD / CAE / CAM / CNC / DFM, etc..
- Supervisory and distributed control systems (SCADA)
- The main technologies used in manufacturing companies in the area of ​​data acquisition and communication with the factory floor, including technologies related to Computer Networks and Industrial Field

At the end of this course, students must be able to
- Design, model and implement industrial control systems based on: State Machines, Petri Nets and SFC.
- Design and implement SCADA
- Understand the Technologies and Architectures for Networks and Industrial Control and Supervision Systems.

Teaching methods and learning activities

The theoretical classes present the main concepts while involving the active participation of the students. Some case study cases are presented to illustrate the concepts.
The practical classes are based on the execution of an integrating assignment,the teacher’s help, involving the experimental component and complemented, if possible, with study visits.

Evaluation Type

Distributed evaluation without final exam

Assessment Components

Description	Type	Time (hours)	Weight (%)	End date
Attendance (estimated)	Participação presencial	30,00
	Trabalho escrito	70,00
	Defesa pública de dissertação, de relatório de projeto ou estágio, ou de tese	30,00
	Total:	-	0,00

	Total:	30,00

Calculation formula of final grade

Assessment includes:
- Pratical works (PW) = 6/20;
- Project (PR, including presentations) = 14/20

Final Assessment = PW + PR

Examinations or Special Assignments

Continuous Evaluation includes:
- Evaluation of work done in practical classes
- Project Evaluation
- Assessment of the Project Presentation

Special assessment (TE, DA, ...)

Besides the test equivalent to the final exam, the special evaluation student must reveal some experimental knowledge, by doing a complementary laboratory test, correspondent to the abilities acquired by the ordinary students in the experimental assignment.

Classification improvement

Development and presentation of alternative assignments in the next course term.
