A recent research paper delves into the vital role of protocol translation in industrial facilities by looking at the protocol gateway. It is a small device that translates the different protocols used by machinery, sensors, actuators, and computers that operate smart factories, dams, power plants, and other industrial facilities. If protocol gateways fail, then the […]
