A programmable logic controller (PLC) is an automated system that collects data from various input devices such as sensors that monitor parameters such as storage level, pressure, temperature, etc. Then, using its own programmed software logic, the PLC processes the collected data, makes appropriate logic-based decisions, and delivers output instructions and commands to control processes and machines.

PLC programming languages are used to develop software for programmable logic controllers (PLCs). PLCs are industrial computers that are used to control machines and processes. There are many different types of PLC programming languages, but the most popular ones are: Ladder logic (LD) Function block diagram (FBD) Structured text (ST) Instruction list (IL) Sequential function chart (SFC)

Edge computing is a distributed computing pattern that brings computation and data storage closer to the sources of data. This is expected to improve response times and save bandwidth. Edge computing is an architecture rather than a specific technology, and a topology- and location-sensitive form of distributed computing.
