Abstract: The invention relates to a method for extending an application in a client device. The method comprises forming a connection from the client device to a server in order to access a document vault in the server; receiving one or more extension elements from the document vault wherein said one or more extension elements comprise software logic; executing the software logic in said client device in order to adapt a document management application as an extension of a file management system of the client device according to the one or more extension elements.

Abstract: The present embodiments relate to a method and technical equipment for providing a user interface implementation of an electronic form in a client application. The user interface implementation is created by such computer program language structures that are compatible with both a native operating environment and a www operating environment, wherein the user interface implementation of the electronic form is the same in both operating environments. The user interface implementation defines both presentation and logics for the user interface.

Abstract: An operator tool is provided to assist an operator of a process or machine in decision making. The tool is initiated by the operator selecting a key variable, “Variable of Interest”, at the user interface. The variable of interest usually is an output variable of interest (such as quality, cost, etc.). At least most significant variables related to the selected variable of interest are automatically determined by a statistical method and shown at the user interface. The operator can adjust the related variables shown on the interface. The impact of one variable to another is demonstrated by a prediction method and shown in a numerical and/or graphical form. After being satisfied with the result of the analysis, the operator decides on which is the preferred parameter change in order to overcome the problem in question or achieve the desired improvement, and then implements the corresponding change on the real system.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for measuring and analyzing the performance of a control circuit in an industrial process. Different parameters (indices) illustrating the state of the control circuit are combined in an intelligent manner such that each combination of index (VI, IAE, CTI, OI) values represents a specific example state of the control circuit. The indices and combinations of their values are selected in advance on the basis of expert knowledge and process research. A momentary state of the control circuit is deduced by computing the performance indices on the basis of the measurement data illustrating the control loop operation and by examining which (one) of the predetermined index value combinations best correlate(s) with the corresponding reference combination values. The reference state representing the best correlating combinations is then deduced to be the momentary state of the control circuit.
