Modern automated process control systems include software complexes for monitoring, dispatching, data processing, and controlling industrial equipment. The correct operation of these systems depends on the predictable and stable deployment of software components, which requires a deterministic approach to configuration management. This paper proposes a mathematical model for software configuration management in APCS, based on difference equations of discrete systems. Numerical modeling was conducted in the Octave environment, confirming the correctness of the proposed model and allowing for the analysis of the impact of control parameters on process dynamics. The obtained results can be used to optimize strategies for automated deployment of software complexes in industrial systems.

This article explores a method for executing data collection systems based on the widely-used industrial protocol, Modbus TCP. In this configuration, the server is a program emulating the Modbus TCP protocol.To implement the client an algorithm and furnished a practical Python programming illustration that employs a lower-level socket library.
