Batch Control Systems—Design, Application, and Implementation, 2nd Edition William M. Hawkins and Thomas Fisher This revision of the 1990 work by Thomas Fisher covers an introduction to batch processes; batch control system structures; batch control; batch communications and batch control system design. Hawkins offers a comprehensive analysis of the development and evolution of batch control from the original NAMUR model through the most current publications in the ISA- 88 series. Through examples, commentary, analogies and at times, wry humor, the author provides an in-depth philosophical discussion of how batch control and all manufacturing enterprises have been impacted by the work of ISA- 88.
