Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a product compilation, which comprises at least one main product and at least one or more subproducts. The main product or a subproduct is provided as a leading object with machine-readable data, which comprise a process key (1), which comprises at least one uniform resource identifier (URI, 2) and a control element region (3), wherein, in the production process, at least one machine recognizes the process key (1) and a work step of the machine is triggered by the process key (1).

Abstract: A method for controlling machines (M1, M2, . . . ), which are provided for the processing of objects (O1, O2, . . . ), includes introducing an object (O1, O2, . . . ) into a working region of a machine (M1, M2, . . . ) and accessing, in a local environment of the machine (M1, M2, . . . ), a process key (PS1, PS2, . . . ), which is associated with the object (O1, O2, . . . ) and which contains at least one URI (unified resource identifier). The object (O1, O2, . . . ) is then processed using the URI contained in the process key (PS1, PS2, . . . ).

Abstract: A conveyor installation (100) includes conveyor sections (111), at least one switch (1111) for switching between the conveyor sections (111), a multiplicity of transportation units (110), which extend along the conveyor sections (111), a radio system (101) for spatially tracking the transportation units (110), and a control unit for controlling the conveyor system. (100), the radio system (101) including radio modules (1013) each assigned to a transportation unit (110) and at least one stationary radio device (1011), which are configured for exchanging radio signals, and a processing unit (109), wherein the processing unit (109) is configured to process the radio signals from the radio signals, and the current position of the transportation units (110) along the conveyor sections (111).

Abstract: The disclosure relates to the control of a printed product processing system, which comprises a collecting system having a conveyer and a plurality of feed conveyers for creating product collections from products fed by the feed conveyers, occupancy plans are generated and stored which specify, for the feed conveyers, in each case a chronological sequence of the products to be fed by the feed conveyer to the conveyer to create the product collections. On the basis of the occupancy plans, for the feed conveyers, in each case one product to be fed is determined and transmitted to mobile transport devices. The occupancy plans enable the operating personnel to announce early and in good time which products the feed conveyers are to be occupied with and which must for this purpose be supplied thereto on pallets.

Abstract: A production configuration is determined for controlling a product processing plant that comprises a collecting system having a conveyor and a plurality of feeders for preparing product collections from products supplied by the feeders. The production configuration defines a production of a plurality of production sequences for a plurality of delivery routes, wherein each delivery route is assigned one or more production sequences, each of which define a production of a plurality of production collections of a collection type comprising a plurality of products. For each feeder an occupancy with products, which are to be conveyed by the feeder to the conveyor for preparation for the product collections, is determined. A production optimization parameter determines whether a defined production order is to be maintained for the delivery routes or whether the production order of the delivery routes can be altered.

Abstract: The invention relates to a computer-implemented graphical user interface (6) for a display (60), comprising an information area (62) for presenting a section (A') of a desktop (A), on which a plurality of widgets (W1, W2, W3, W4, WS) are arranged. The user interface also comprises a navigation area (61), which is substantially smaller than the information area (62) and which is arranged outside of the information area (62) and which has a miniaturized presentation (A*) of the entire desktop and the widgets arranged thereon. The navigation area (61) and the information area (62) are coupled by means of a selection indicator (L), which can be moved in the navigation area (61), in such a way that a sub-area of the desktop (A*) presented in miniature determined in the navigation area (61) by the selection indicator (I) corresponds to the section (A') of the desktop (A) presented in the information area (62).

Abstract: In order to configure a graphical user interface (6?) for displays of various terminals, a graphical configuration interface (81?) is presented, which comprises a miniaturized presentation of a desktop for the graphical user interface (6?). Configuration instructions are received in order to select widgets (W?) and in order to arrange the widgets (W?) on the desktop by positioning miniaturized presentations of the widgets on the desktop presented in miniature. Further configuration instructions selectively associate one or more defined parts of the desktop with the terminals, and the graphical user interface (6?) is defined for a particular terminal on the basis of the associated parts of the desktop and the widgets (W?) arranged thereon.
