4.7 NAP OPC Server
4.7.1 Introduction
OPC (OLE for Process Control) is the first standard resulting from the collaboration of a
number of leading worldwide automation suppliers working in cooperation with Microsoft.
Originally based on Microsoft's OLE COM (component object model) and DCOM
(distributed component object model) technologies, the specification defined a standard set
of objects, interfaces and methods for use in process control and manufacturing automation
applications to facilitate interoperability. The COM/DCOM technologies provided the
framework for software products to be developed. There are now hundreds of OPC Data
Access servers and clients.
