  • Publication number: 20240064218
    Abstract: Various systems and methods for implementing a software defined industrial system are described herein. For example, an orchestrated system of distributed nodes may run an application, including modules implemented on the distributed nodes. In response to a node failing, a module may be redeployed to a replacement node. In an example, self-descriptive control applications and software modules are provided in the context of orchestratable distributed systems. The self-descriptive control applications may be executed by an orchestrator or like control device and use a module manifest to generate a control system application. For example, an edge control node of the industrial system may include a system on a chip including a microcontroller (MCU) to convert IO data. The system on a chip includes a central processing unit (CPU) in an initial inactive state, which may be changed to an activated state in response an activation signal.

  • Patent number: 11637918
    Abstract: Various systems and methods are provided for implementing a software defined industrial system. In an example, self-descriptive control applications and software modules are provided in the context of orchestratable distributed systems. The self-descriptive control applications may be executed by an orchestrator or like control device, configured to: identify available software modules adapted to perform functional operations in a control system environment; identify operational characteristics that identify characteristics of execution of the available software modules that are available to implement a control system application; select a software module for execution based on the operational configuration and the operational characteristics identified in the manifest; and cause the execution of the selected software module in the control system environment based on an application specification for the control system application.

  • Patent number: 10776562
    Abstract: An information processing method, a terminal, and a computer storage medium are provided. The method includes: rendering a target object in a first state on a terminal user interface; and detecting a first operation triggered in a browsing page containing the target object. The method also includes selecting a resource item displacement strategy matching a movement direction of the browsing page according to the first operation. At least two resource items of target object are obtained, each resource item being placed on one layer among multiple layers of the target object. The method also includes generating a dynamic rendering style according to the resource item displacement strategy; and switching to render the target object in a second state according to the dynamic rendering style. The second state presents a dynamic display effect that the target object follows the first operation on the terminal user interface in a multi-layer unsynchronized manner.
