Abstract: A system and method for real time updating of process applications includes a first execution engine executing a first process application to control a process device, an update manager receiving an updated software, the update manager being a second software container deployed in the deployment unit; initializing the updated software in a second execution engine; determining an application state of the first process application; instructing a transfer of the application state from the first execution engine to the second execution engine; instructing the second execution engine to execute the updated process application using the received application state; and instructing the first execution engine to stop writing output signals for the process device, and instructing the second execution engine to write output signals for the process device.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a closure for a container with a base element directly or indirectly attachable to a container, a flip-top lid attached to the base element by a hinge such that the flip-top lid can be moved between an opened and a closed position, and a tamper evident element for indicating whether the flip-top lid had been opened at least once by a user or not. The flip-top lid comprises a top cover element and an outer side wall extending therefrom. The tamper evident element is linearly movable between a first position and a second position, wherein the flip-top lid further comprises an inner side wall, which extends only around a part of the circumference of the closure, wherein at least parts of the inner side wall and at least parts of the outer side wall together form guidance means for enabling and controlling the linear movement.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a closure for a container with a base element (100), a flip-top lid (200) attached to said base element (100) by a hinge (150) such that the flip-top lid (200) can be moved between an opened and a closed position, and with a tamper evident unit (400) for indicating whether the flip-top lid (200) had been opened at least once by a user or not. Said tamper evident unit (400) comprising a first tamper evident element (420) and a second tamper evident element (440), which are, when said closure is in its as-manufactured status or when said flip-top lid (200) has not been opened yet by the user, connected to each other by at least one frangible bridge (430).
