Abstract: A system manages human machine interface (HMI) applications for industrial control and automation. Software instructions stored on a tangible, non-transitory media and executable by a processor receive data indicative of a manufacturing/process control system being monitored and display a user interface indicative of a status of the manufacturing/process control system being monitored wherein the status is based on the received data.

Abstract: A security component within a supervisory process control and manufacturing information system comprising a set of user roles corresponding to different types of users within the information system, a set of security groups defining a set of security permissions with regard to a set of objects, wherein each security group includes an access definition relating the security permissions to at least one of the set of user roles, and a set of user accounts assigned to at least one of the defined roles thereby indirectly defining access rights with regard to the set of objects having restricted access within the system. The security permissions within the supervisory process control and manufacturing information system are assigned at an object attribute level.

Abstract: An industrial control and automation human machine interface (HMI) technology migration scheme is embodied in object management, graphics technologies, and namespace handlers for HMI applications. New features of the second technology are supported for HMI graphics while retaining the functionality of systems embodying the first technology, including the ability to export to the first technology, graphics developed and/or managed in the second technology. A combination of facilities is provided to accommodate both the first and second HMI graphics technologies: name space integration, graphics rendering integration, and HMI application management integration.
