Distributed control system is a new generation of instrument control system based on microprocessors, adopting the design principles of decentralized control functions, centralized display operations, balancing separation and autonomy, and comprehensive coordination. Distributed Control System, abbreviated as DCS, can also be translated as "Distributed Control System" or "Distributed Computer Control System".

It adopts the basic design concept of decentralized control, centralized operation and management, and adopts a multi-level hierarchical and cooperative autonomous structural form. Its main feature is its centralized management and decentralized control. DCS has been widely used in various industries such as power, metallurgy, and petrochemicals.
