DESCRIPTION:Industrial Automation &amp; PLCs Training Series – Session 1\n\nJ
 oin IEEE Circuits and Systems Society for a technical training series deli
 vered in collaboration with Synkron\, designed to introduce participants t
 o industrial automation\, Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)\, and thei
 r applications in modern industry.\n\nThe series will be three online tech
 nical sessions\, giving participants an opportunity to connect theoretical
  concepts with real-world industrial applications.\n\nSession 1: Introduct
 ion to Industrial Automation &amp; PLCs\n\nIn this opening session\, participa
 nts will be introduced to the fundamentals of industrial automation and th
 e role of PLCs in automated systems.\n\nTopics covered:\n• Industrial au
 tomation and its applications\n• Key components of an automated system\n
 • Introduction to Programmable Logic Controllers (PLCs)\n• PLC archite
 cture and basic operation\n• Real-world industrial applications\n\nDate:
