  • Patent number: 8051048
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system and a method for automated transfer and subsequent evaluation of the quality of mass data of a technical process or a technical project in a standardized environment (70) of one or more data processing devices with an assignment module (20) for allocating the mass data from one or more data sources (10) to structure elements in the standardized environment of the data processing device (70) and for generating a defined mapping of the mass data to be read in. The assignment module (20) interacts with a read-in module (30), into which the mass data can be read in an automated operation according to the selected assignment. The data read in can be fed to a checking module (40) for automated checking and/or for generation of a report for evaluation of the quality of the measured data read in.

  • Publication number: 20080004932
    Abstract: A system and a method are disclosed for automated quantity-related comparison between planning/project and default data of a technical process or a technical project, with an input module for the supply of the default data and a planning tool for storage of the planning data. The input module is provided to transmit the individual elements of the default data as default elements to the planning tool for further processing. The planning tool has a planning module, in which the individual elements of the planning data are stored as planning elements. The planning tool further has an assignment module for generating a mapping of the default elements on to the planning elements. Based on the generated mapping of the default elements on to the planning elements, a processing module integrated in the planning tool automatically performs a quantity-related comparison between the number of planning elements and of default elements, and makes the comparison results available to an evaluation module.

  • Publication number: 20060129879
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system and method for automatically and systematically analysing and monitoring operations of a technical process (10) for the status and progress monitoring of the technical process (10), based on data (D) which characterizes the current state of the process (10), in which check routines (C) for describing and implementing check criteria for evaluating the data (D) are defined and stored in a first module (20). The first module (20) interacts with a second module (30) which compiles the check routines (C) stored in the first module (D) to form hierarchically structured check points (CP). The check routines (C) which are stored in the hierarchically structured check points (CP) check, by assigning the data (D).
