VELASQUEZ RODRIGUEZ, Esther  and  CUSTODIO RUIZ, Ángel. Maintenance magnament system of a scada based in free software. uct [online]. 2011, vol.15, n.59, pp.103-113. ISSN 2542-3401.

A SCADA is a computer-based system that allows remote monitoring and control facility of any kind. Modules include a SCADA is the Maintenance, which is responsible for controlling all operations relating to the maintenance of plant equipment or company. The maintenance of the company, is a key element for achieving the same objectives. Without adequate maintenance machinery operation interrupted frequently, significantly altering production schedules and failing to customers. For this reason we designed the preventive maintenance module WATER SCADA is being developed by the UNEXPO, using programming tools based on free software programs such as: HTML, PHP, JAVA, MYSQL, so it (module) to operate under Windows and Linux operating systems. This module will be within the SCADA WATER and it will be accessible through computers connected to the network of Instrumentation and Control Center (CIC) of the UNEXPO Puerto Ordaz. The need for this work is that there are currently no free software based systems dedicated to manage the maintenance of water treatment plants that are linked into a comprehensive system for monitoring and control of the plant (SCADA). Normally these systems are proprietary and are not adapted to the specific needs required by the water companies. Therefore, there is usually to hire an outside service that allows its adaptation, or develop custom software. With the current project will have all the source code as it is based on free software, also to be flexible to adapt to the policies of public water companies.
