List of automation protocols

This is a list of communication protocols used for the automation of processes (industrial or otherwise), such as for building automation, power-system automation, automatic meter reading, and vehicular automation.


Process automation protocols

gollark: Also, you can just use a wireless card?
gollark: I'd rather be ultra-fancy and have it access some push notification API and send a notification to my phone.
gollark: IRC? What does that have to do with anything?
gollark: ```luapython```
gollark: 0.00001.
