Introduction to Digital Logic Systems for Energy Monitoring and Control Systems.
Abstract
Recent advances in the state-of-the-art of digital electronic technology have made feasible the concept of distributed data processing in energy monitoring and control systems (emcs). These advances were brought about largely due to the advent of micro-miniaturization of electronic integrated circuit components and the development of the microprocessor, a discrete semiconductor device with many of the capabilities of the central processing unit of the familiar mainframes of minicomputers, but vastly reduced in sized and cost. It is now possible to design a reliable emcs consisting of a central computer control system and remote microcomputers which can perform many functions independent of the central system. When properly applied, these emcs installations can aid significantly in conserving our dwindling sources of energy. Keywords: login devices; computer logic; computer architecture; assembly languages; high level languages; interfacing computer systems.
