Patent number: 8818757Abstract: An object can be used in an industrial control configuration in relation to performing a function or task. Matching can occur such that an object with operational requirements can bind with a host that has capabilities that meet those operational requirements—matching can occur automatically as well as through user operation. Once matched, different functionality can be presented to a user pertaining to the object. To assist the user, the object can include external references, logic, local or private data, as well as others in addition to resources. To facilitate operation, capabilities and resources can be published in a directory that can be accessed by different entities—sometimes with security constraints in order to protect configuration integrity. Likewise, a subscription system can be employed such that when a change to a related entity is made, a notice can transfer to related entities and operation can alter based upon the change.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2008Date of Patent: August 26, 2014Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Kenneth Scott Plache, Daniel Baliey Seger, Raymond John Staron, Taryl Jon Jasper, James Harry Jarrett, Russell William Brandes, Ronald Eric Bliss, Michael Dan Kalan, Subbian Govindaraj, Kenwood Henry Hall, Douglas James Reichard, Robert John Kretschmann

Patent number: 8677262Abstract: A visualization system that generates visualization(s) in an industrial automation environment is provided. An interface component receives input concerning displayed objects and information. A context component can detect, infer or determine context information regarding an entity. A reference component infers or determines relevance of respective display objects as a function of the context information. A visualization component dynamically generates a visualization from a set of display object, and spatially organizes the display objects as a function of the inferred or determined relevance.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2007Date of Patent: March 18, 2014Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: John Joseph Baier, Clifton Harold Bromley, Mark Hobbs, Teunis Hendrik Schouten, Douglas James Reichard, Kevin George Gordon, Taryl Jon Jasper, Robert Joseph McGreevy, Bruce Gordan Fuller

Patent number: 8327130Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for issuing unique identification credentials to a plurality of devices, and their constituent components, in an industrial control system. Identification credentials are granted by an identification authority and conveyed to each of the credentialed devices and/or component through an identity token. The identification credentials include (1) a unique device identifier, (2) an identification authority component identifier, and (3) an indication of the location of the identification authority component. To secure the issued credentials, such credentials are encrypted and the identification token can be embedded with biometrics features. Identification credentials provide for the following prominent features: (i) Secure access to a device form a client and (ii) determination a topology of a set of credentialed devices in an industrial control system. The topology is network agnostic and facilitates organizational modeling of processes in the industrial control system.Type: GrantFiled: September 25, 2007Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: Rockwell Automation Technologies, Inc.Inventors: John C. Wilkinson, Jr., Kenwood Henry Hall, Taryl Jon Jasper, Michael Dean Kalan
