Autonomous Decentralized System network (ADS-net)

ADS-net is an open Industrial Real Time Network based on Autonomous Decentralized System technology.

What is ADS-net?

  • ADS-net (Autonomous Decentralized System network) is one of the open industrial real-time networks according to ISO/IEC 8802-3 and is based on the ADS technology defined in ISO 15745-4 – Industrial automation systems and integration – Open systems application integration framework.
  • ADS-net has incorporated recent evolutions in network technology – such as advanced priority control, and autonomous re-configuration and communication – developed in collaboration with organizations such as IEEE ISADS (International Symposium on Autonomous Decentralized Systems, established in 1993), as well as IPv6 technology.
