Instrumentation and process control can be traced back many millennia. Some
of the early examples are the process of making fire and instruments using the
sun and stars, such as Stonehenge. The evolution of instrumentation and process
control has undergone several industrial revolutions leading to the complexities
of modern day microprocessor-controlled processing. Today’s technological
evolution has made it possible to measure parameters deemed impossible only
a few years ago. Improvements in accuracy, tighter control, and waste reduction
have also been achieved.
