UniversalAutomation.org Information

UniversalAutomation.org is an independent, not-for-profit association managing the reference implementation of an industrial automation shared source runtime execution engine. The shared runtime is based on the IEC61499 standard for interoperability between hardware from different vendors and portability of software applications. UniversalAutomation.org provides a ready-to-go solution that enables flexible automation architectures and drastically improves return on investment with easy reusability and portability. The ongoing development of the runtime is managed by the association following shared source principles to ensure compatibility. Members act collectively, sharing technology development, insights, and information to create a market of “plug and produce” automation solutions. UniversalAutomation.org is expanding with more end users/SIs/OEMs and vendors eager to implement the runtime in their products. Universities can use the technology to help educate and inaugurate the new generation of industrial engineers driving automation innovation. Any entity looking to help advance industrial automation is welcome to join. #UniversalAutomation #IndustrialAutomation #Industry40 #IEC61499 #Join_UAO
