These patterns originate from state-of-the-art systems from market-leading companies, have been tried and tested, and will address typical challenges in the domain, such as long lifecycle, distribution, real-time and fault tolerance. Each pattern describes a separate design problem that needs to be solved. Solutions are provided, with consequences and trade-offs. Each solution will enable piecemeal growth of the design. Finding a solution is easy, as the patterns are divided into categories based on the problem field the pattern tackles. The design process is guided by different aspects of quality, such as performance and extendibility, which are included in the pattern descriptions. The book also contains an example software architecture designed by leading industry experts using the patterns in the book. The example system introduces the reader to the problem domain and demonstrates how the patterns can be used in a practical system design process. The example architecture shows how useful a toolbox the patterns provide for both novices and experts, guiding the system design process from its beginning to the finest details. Designing distributed machine control systems with patterns ensures high quality in the final product. High-quality systems will improve revenue and guarantee customer satisfaction. As market need changes, the desire to produce a quality machine is not only a primary concern, there is also a need for easy maintenance, to improve efficiency and productivity, as well as the growing importance of environmental values; these all impact machine design. The software of work machines needs to be designed with these new requirements in mind. \u003ci\u003eDesigning Distributed Control Systems\u003c\/i\u003e presents patterns to help tackle these challenges. With proven methodologies from the expert author team, they show readers how to improve the quality and efficiency of distributed control systems.\u003c\/p\u003e Foreword xvii \u003cp\u003eAcknowledgements xxi\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 1 Setting the Landscape 1\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 2 The Domain of Distributed Control Systems 9\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 3 Software Architecture and Quality 71\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 4 About Patterns 79\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 5 Pattern Language for Distributed Control Systems 93\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 6 Patterns for Distribution 109\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 7 Messaging Patterns 129\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 8 Event-Handling Patterns 155\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 9 Patterns for Control System Modes 173\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 10 Patterns for Data Management 199\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 11 Patterns to Handle Scarce Resources 227\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 12 Patterns for Decoupling Software and Hardware 263\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 13 Redundancy Patterns 277\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 14 Patterns for System Start-Up 287\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 15 Software Update Patterns 299\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 16 Human–Machine Interface Patterns 311\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 17 High-Level Services Patterns 349\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 18 Fleet Management Patterns 371\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 19 Patterns for System Configuration 379\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 20 Applying Patterns 399\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eChapter 21 Concluding Remarks 407\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix A Quality Attribute Table 409\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAppendix B Patlets 415\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGlossary 433\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReferences 439\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex of Patterns 459\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIndex 465\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVeli-Pekka Eloranta\u003c\/strong\u003e, is a researcher at TUT.
