A FAQ on IEC 61499 developed by ISaGRAF

This article published by the magazine Automazione Oggi in 2008 reports an experience of applying the IEC 61499 method, created by ITIA-CNR with the ISaGRAF platform for the development of the control of a flexible production plant

This 2008 IEEE article, edited by a professor from the University of Auckland and the General Manager of ISaGRAF, describes how to implement the IEC 61499 standard in version 5.1 of ISaGRAF

This booklet contains an overview of the fundamentals of distributed and object-oriented programming according to the IEC 61499 standard.

A few simple tricks to make good programming C. In summary, some good rules to avoid or at least reduce sleepless nights.

Another course developed by Prometeo in the 90s. An example of the approach to system design of the real-time designers of the old guard.

A course on software testing (recommendations, practices and regulations) developed by Prometheus in 1994. In theory it should therefore be very obsolete, but in reality we doubt that it is completely obsolete.

The GAMP regulation is adopted for the development of software in the pharmaceutical and medical sector. It is a very strict and therefore interesting software development standard. This text is nothing more than a set of notes that can give an idea of ​​the legislation. However, it should be borne in mind that a more advanced legislation currently exists in the sector: the GAMP5.

Web HP-Leakage Detector Cloud Service (SaS) Brochure. This is a Service that allows an accurate daily calculation of the losses of the water districts. This SaS allows you to simply create and manage an efficient Active Leakage Control system, because it calculates losses simply on the basis of the District Balancee, without requiring estimates of the number of inhabitants served, their legitimate night-time consumption, nor data on pressures in the Districts, on the km of network and on the materials used for the pipelines.

This presentation, made by Giuliano Ceseri at IWA WaterLoss2024 in San Sebastian, describes the HP-Leakage Detector leak calculation algorithm and the future AI developments of the AI-HP-PMZ pressure control system.

This Report, which will be presented at IWA Waterloss 2024 in San Sebastian, analyses the
accuracy of the HP-Leakage Detector algorithm. A comparison is made between the data of the
CCAM's Active Leakage Control system (an ALC that has been in operation for over 15 years and complies with the IWA best practices) and the HP-Leakage Detector (HP-LD) pattern-recognition algorithm estimates.
The conclusion is that HP-LD computes losses with an average deviation from CCAM's ALC
less than 10%. Moreover, since HP-LD calculations are based only on the water balance per quarter of an hour, they are much less prone to errors of assessment due to the incorrect choice of
calculation parameters. This advantage is of course enormously amplified in tourist areas and
in metropolitan business areas, with strong variation in the daily number of inhabitants served.
The features of HP-LD allow to make accurate loss estimates, without big initial investments
and even on water networks that are not yet accurately districted, provided that ithe Area water balace is available. In fact, HP-LD is able to estimate losses even in Districts for which no parameters are available (e.g. number of inhabitants

This White Paper aims to highlight some critical issues encountered
in estimating losses with the formulas proposed by the IWA Good
Practices Document. These difficulties allow us to highlight the simplicity and
the effectiveness of using the HP-Leakage Detector Algorithm.

The report "Remote control systems for the digital Utility: application principles" presented by Giuliano Ceseri at the 2017 Remote Control Forum, held in Verona, was awarded as the best report of the conference.
