The results of the standardization work of PROFIBUS and PROFINET International (PI) are usually made available to members and the public in the format of specifications, standards, or white papers. In addition, accompanying documents are often produced, for example as articles in technical journals or as conference papers. In order to make these accompanying documents easily accessible as well, PI is now also providing these documents on the PI website.
