Abstract: A method includes acquiring state variables that characterize an operational state of an industrial plant; acquiring interaction events of a plant operator interacting with the distributed control system via a human-machine interface; determining based on the interaction events, and with state variables as input data, whether one or more interaction events are indicative of the plant operator executing a task that is not sufficiently covered by engineering of the distributed control system. When this determination is positive, mapping the input data to an amendment and/or augmentation for the engineering tool that has generated the application code.

Abstract: An industrial plant operator intervention system for use in an industrial plant includes a processing unit configured to monitor and analyze industrial plant operation data to detect an anomaly in the industrial plant operation data that warrants initiating an operator intervention, and in response to detecting the anomaly, automatically determine a user interface configuration of a user interface to be presented to a designated operator who is to perform the operator intervention. The user interface configuration is determined on the basis of technical context data, including industrial plant operation data associated with the anomaly, and on the basis of operator data pertaining to the designated operator, in such a manner that an anomaly-related and operator-specific user interface configuration is obtained.
