    摘要: An information transmitting system for use in a factory, which is capable of transmitting information among controllers simply without the complicated lead-around of a communication line nor the need of complicated communication protocol. A controller for every molding cell Ai, where i=1,2 . . . max and max is a maximum number of molding cells, a conveyance controller to control an automatic conveyor, a stock cell and a centralized controller are connected to each other via an Ethernet line to provide a common information storage unit, and information is transmitted among the controllers through the common information storage unit. Since there is no need of parallel communication lines between the controllers, an I/O port or a communication line may be prevented from increasing in number and the lead-around of the communication line is prevented from being complicated, resulting in a reduction of cost required for setting up the devices.

    摘要: An object oriented sensing/control framework architecture includes a sensor/controller framework module, an application services framework module, a signal database, and an application database. The sensor/controller framework module may exist within a sensor/controller gateway; the application services framework module may exist within an application services system. The sensor/controller framework module manages communication between 1) sensing/control subsystem elements, which generate and/or receive data and/or hardware signals; and 2) signal objects in the sensor/controller framework module and/or service objects in the application services framework module, which generate and/or receive event messages. Signal and/or service objects may be selectively associated with particular types of sensing and/or control subsystem elements, and process information within corresponding event messages. Associations between signal and/or service objects and sensing and/or control subsystem elements may be specified in the signal and/or the application database. Signal and/or service objects may be stored upon and distributed by an Object Database Management System.

    摘要: The invention relates to field management in industrial process systems and similar systems. In the invention, maintenance management systems of industrial processes of separate plants located geographically apart from each other are networked in such a way that they may communicate with each other or with a centralized maintenance management server and transmit information on maintenance parameters of field devices of different types. As a result, experience obtained in one industrial process can be transferred to other respective industrial processes and applications. By utilizing this globally collected cumulative information, it is possible to improve and specify the diagnostics of the separate local maintenance systems (6) essentially faster than in case if the local maintenance management system were independent and the diagnostics were changed on the basis of local experience only.

    摘要: Method and apparatus for an improved interface for controlling transactions in a manufacturing execution system. A common display interface is displayed on a computer system display which represents a series of transactions for a single manufacturing process, The common display interface includes a plurality of subdisplays each separately accessible through the common display interface. Each of the plurality of subdisplays includes various information related to the step in the manufacturing process represented by the subdisplay, The common display also can access a first group of the plurality of subdisplays in a sequential order and perform transactions related to the subdisplays in a sequential order. The common display also can access a second group of the plurality of subdisplays at arbitrary time intervals, and performing transactions associated with the second group of the plurality of subdisplays at the arbitrary time intervals.

    摘要: A device supporting big data in a process plant includes an interface to a communications network, a cache configured to store data observed by the device, and a multi-processing element processor to cause the data to be cached and transmitted (e.g., streamed) for historization at a unitary, logical centralized data storage area. The data storage area stores multiple types of process control or plant data using a common format. The device time-stamps the cached data, and, in some cases, all data that is generated or created by or received at the device may be cached and/or streamed. The device may be a field device, a controller, an input/output device, a network management device, a user interface device, or a historian device, and the device may be a node of a network supporting big data in the process plant. Multiple devices in the network may support layered or leveled caching of data.

    摘要: System(s) and method(s) are provided for peer-to-peer exchange of data in a control system. Decentralized storage and multi-access paths provide complete sets of data without dependence on a specific or pre-defined data source or access paths. Data is characterized as data resources with disparate granularity. The control system includes a plurality of layers that act as logic units communicatively coupled through access network(s). Server(s) resides in a service layer, whereas client(s) associated with respective visualization terminal(s) are part of a visualization layer. Peer-to-peer distribution of data resource(s) can be based on available access network(s) resources and optimization of response time(s) in the control system. When client requests a data resource, all the locations of the data resource and the quickest source to retrieve it are automatically determined. The client stores copy of data resource. Peer-to-peer distribution of data resource(s) can be implemented within the service layer or the visualization layer.
