  • Patent number: 11513508
    Abstract: A method, a component, and an electronic device relating to the field of industrial automation technology, particularly relating to the creation of a human machine interface, and are used for automatically creating an HMI of a system. The method for creating an HMI comprises: a first component of a system receives, via an HMI, a first command for creating an HMI for the system; the first component obtains, from each searched and found second component of the system an HMI resource of each of the second components; and the first component creates, on the basis of an HMI resource of the first component and the obtained HMI resource from each of the second components, the HMI for the system. One component of the system collects the HMI resource of another component of the system and creates the HMI for the whole system, providing a method for automatically creating the HMI for the system.

  • Publication number: 20220050441
    Abstract: Disclosed are an information providing method and system. In an embodiment, the method includes: acquiring product data and/or historical operation data; determining at least one feature description tag of an industrial product based upon the product data, and taking the at least one feature description tag of the industrial product as a feature of the industrial product; and/or determining at least one feature description tag of a user based upon the historical operation data, and taking the at least one feature description tag of the user as a feature of the user. The method further includes sending the feature of the industrial product and/or the feature of the user to a human-machine interactive device for display on a human-machine interactive interface. An embodiment further provides a reference suggestion for operative control of the industrial product by the user.

  • Patent number: 10999071
    Abstract: A method is for executing an application in a cloud system. The method includes receiving a request from a first user for executing an application in the cloud system; receiving, from the first user, user data of the first user related to the execution of the requested application; storing the received user data in a first storage area of a computing environment of the cloud system; in the computing environment, executing the requested application based on the stored user data of the first user to obtain an execution result; and storing the execution result in a second storage area of the computing environment, the access permission of the first user to the first storage area being a write-only permission, and the access permission of the first user to the second storage area being a read-only permission. As such, data privacy protection and security can be provided in the cloud system.

  • Patent number: 9983907
    Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for backfilling jobs based on energy aware scheduling are provided. A first job is received at a scheduler, where the scheduler manages one or more running jobs based on a plurality of system resources. The plurality of system resources comprises at least one resource constraint. A resource consumption of the first job is estimated based on one or more resource requirements of the first job. A first resource requirement of the one or more resource requirements is determined to exceed the resource constraint. In response to determining that the first resource requirement of the first job exceeds at least one resource constraint, at least one of (i) the first resource requirement of the first job and (ii) the plurality of system resources is modified. The first job is scheduled.

  • Patent number: 9798304
    Abstract: A production process monitoring system is used to monitor a set of production parameters in a production process of a plurality of production units that perform parallel production operation. The production units comprise at least one reference production unit and at least one distribution production unit. The reference production unit comprises a first sensor, a second sensor, and a reference control unit. The distribution production unit comprises a second sensor and a distribution controller. The first and second sensors of the reference production unit is configured to monitor a first and second parameters in the production parameters in the reference production unit and output a first and second signals corresponding to the first and second parameters. The second sensor of the distribution production unit is configured to monitor the second parameter in the distribution production unit and output a second parameter distribution signal corresponding to the second parameter.
