20080294275 | DIAGNOSTIC TOOL FOR RETROACTIVE ASSESSMENT OF INDUSTRIAL PROCESS PERFORMANCE - An industrial control monitoring system provides visualization of historical data acquired from an industrial process in a manner that mimic real-time visualization of real-time data acquired from the industrial process. The monitoring system provides an operator interface that allows the operator to direct playback interactively, such as rewinding and forwarding of the playback. | 11-27-2008 |
20100071057 | REAL-TIME EQUIPMENT BEHAVIOR SELECTION - At creation, a state machine of an industrial control configuration can be hard-coded with a number of states in a hierarchical manner. Once implemented into the configuration, it can be desirable for the states, interpretations of the states, and the like to be modified in accordance with particular desires and processes. Therefore, a user can select a change to a hierarchical rule set of the state machine while the state machine is part of the configuration and the change can be implemented. | 03-18-2010 |
20100082814 | SELF-ARBITRATED RESOURCES FOR INDUSTRIAL CONTROL SYSTEMS - An industrial control system is provided. The system includes two or more industrial control resources that are employed to operate a control process. This includes at least one arbitration component installed with each of the industrial control resources, where the arbitration component is employed to resolve priorities between the industrial control resources. | 04-01-2010 |

20130123944 | Data Resource Identity - An automation control and monitoring system includes an operating system and a data model. The operating system is configured to receive a request for instantiation of an object representing an attribute of the automation control and monitoring system. The operating system is also configured to generate an object identifier when the request for instantiation is received, wherein the object identifier is unique from any other object identifiers employed by the operating system. The data model is configured to store and associate the object with the generated object identifier such that any component of the automation control and monitoring system may access the object by referencing the object identifier. | 05-16-2013 |
20130123953 | CONTROL ENVIRONMENT COMMAND EXECUTION - An automation control system is provided that includes one or more components. The components include an embedded execution engine that is configured to execute one or more commands based upon data communicated to the one or more components from another component of the automation control system. The data is representative of a change to an object in the control system. | 05-16-2013 |
20130124575 | System and Method for Dynamic Meta-Data in Control and Visualization - An automation control and monitoring system is provided that includes an automation control component and a data store. The automation control component is configured to store measurement data acquired from a sensing component of the automation control system in onboard memory. The automation control component is configured to store the measurement data in the onboard memory in a manner defined by a data structure of the measurement data. The data store is configured to store and dynamically associate meta-data with the measurement data acquired from the sensing component such that the meta-data extends the data structure by linking at least portions of the meta-data with the measurement data. | 05-16-2013 |
20130124613 | Systems and Methods for Asynchronous Searching and Filtering of Data - An automation control and monitoring system includes a server configured to receive a subscription request from a client component. The subscription request provides one or more criteria to the server. The server is configured to provide a set of data, via a first notification, to the client component based upon the one or more criteria in the subscription request. The server is configured to provide, via additional notifications based on the subscription request, additional sets of data, modifications to the set of data, or both, when additional data or modifications corresponding to the one or more criteria are available. | 05-16-2013 |
20130131840 | SCALABLE AUTOMATION SYSTEM - An automation control and monitoring system is provided that includes a common framework for components of the control and monitoring system through a resource oriented architecture (ROA). The ROA may enable enhanced scalability and distribution within the control and monitoring system. Further, the framework may provide a base set of functionalities to be implemented across components of the control and monitoring system, creating vertical scalability. | 05-23-2013 |
20140325009 | MESSAGING CONFIGURATION SYSTEM - Systems and methods that facilitate messaging capabilities within a unified plant model (UPM) via employing a plurality of core messaging primitives for configuration of messages that interact with a message engine of the industrial plant. In a related aspect, initially messaging host modules can be located on a network and associated policies identified. Next, data type ID and name syntax can be defined and unique UPM system identifiers generated by the system. | 10-30-2014 |
