Introducing the Automation Connection Network

As you’ll see throughout the April Issue of Automation World, we have created a new section on the Web site called the Automation Connection Network.

2010年4月5日

The network introduces, in a formal way, custom sites “connected” via theAutomation Worldbrand. Content includes Webcasts, blog posts, videos, podcasts, White Papers and case studies on topics such as safety, process automation, discrete automation, control, asset management, energy efficiency, manufacturing operations management software and much more.

The two newest sites includewww.optimizedautomation.com和www.myenum.com/mfgintelligence. The optimized automation site is built on our new custom Web-site platform, which allowsAutomation Worldto produce dynamic Web sites in less than eight weeks.

Take some time and visitwww.myenum.com/connectto find new sources of automation content via the Automation Connect Network.
