  • Patent number: 8055375
    Abstract: A guidance system of an industrial process captures process parameter data that is correlated with a human-machine interface (HMI) in order to learn how an experienced operator selects visualizations of key performance indicators (KPI) in order to take a corrective action to address an abnormal or non-optimal performance condition. Such solution learning can be invoked to recognize onset of another similar occurrence and responding by suggesting visualizations utilized by the experienced operator to diagnose the problem. Analytics can further determine which visualizations provided useful information relative to the problem. In addition, the corrective action can be suggested or automatically implemented.

  • Publication number: 20100082143
    Abstract: Systems and methods for efficiently improving manufacturing conditions are presented herein. A data collection component can record one or more manufacturing parameters of a product during a manufacture of the product. A historical component can retrieve stored manufacturing information related to the product. In addition, a prediction component can predict, during the manufacture, an outcome associated with the manufacture. The prediction can be based on, at least in part, the recorded manufacturing parameter(s) and the retrieved information. A specification component can determine a desired characteristic state for at least one of the recorded manufacturing parameters, and a suggestion component can recommend, during the manufacture, an adjustment of at least one parameter based on, at least in part, the predicted outcome and the desired characteristic state for the at least one recorded manufacturing parameter(s).
