Abstract
Object Linking and Embedding for Process Control (OPC) Foundation is a non-profit industry consortium that develops and maintains standards for open connectivity of industrial automation devices and systems, such as industrial control systems and process control generally. The OPC standards specify the communication of industrial process data, alarms and events, historical data, and batch process data between sensors, instruments, controllers, software systems, and notification devices.
