US Classification:
700 18, 717123
Abstract:
An industrial controller comprises a processing component and a memory that comprises logic code that is executable by the processing component. The memory further comprises documentation associated with the logic code and other control components, wherein the documentation is stored in a native form to enable individualized access to a portion of the documentation to an accessing entity. For example, the documentation can comprise one or more of descriptive text relating to a rung of ladder logic, a text box associated with a portion of the sequential function chart, a text box associated with a function block diagram, and embedded descriptive text within structured text.

International Classification:
G06F 17/30
US Classification:
707001000
Abstract:
An industrial control system includes an industrial controller and a programming interface. The industrial controller maintains a control program for interfacing with a controlled process. The programming interface is operable to communicate a transaction to the industrial controller. The transaction includes a plurality of operations for modifying the control program followed by a commit transaction command. The industrial controller is operable to preprocess the plurality of operations, designate the plurality of operations with a pending status, and commit the operations and clear the pending status responsive to receiving the commit transaction command.

International Classification:
G05B 11/01
US Classification:
700 9
Abstract:
An automation control and monitoring system includes an operating system and a data model. The operating system is configured to receive a request for instantiation of an object representing an attribute of the automation control and monitoring system. The operating system is also configured to generate an object identifier when the request for instantiation is received, wherein the object identifier is unique from any other object identifiers employed by the operating system. The data model is configured to store and associate the object with the generated object identifier such that any component of the automation control and monitoring system may access the object by referencing the object identifier.

Abstract:
A control and monitoring system is provided that includes an automation controller. The system includes a distributed model stored on the automation controller. Changes to the distributed model are provided via delta scripts that define only the changes to the model. Further, the control and monitoring system includes distributed execution engines that execute commands based upon trigger events determined in the system. a plurality of automation control components networked together and with the automation controller, wherein the plurality of automation control components are capable of load balancing among the plurality of automation control components in response to performance demands of the control and monitoring system. These features of the control and monitoring system enable load balancing, data and processing redundancy, and collaborative design within the control and monitoring system.

International Classification:
D21C 9/14
US Classification:
162 88
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a method for increasing brightness of pulp, wherein the method includes: contacting a pulp slurry with chlorine dioxide in a final D (ClO) bleaching stage; and adding a brightening additive to the final D bleaching stage after at least a portion of the chlorine dioxide has been consumed, in an amount sufficient to increase brightness of the pulp; wherein the brightening additive is an inorganic compound chosen from hypochlorous acid, one or more precursor compounds that form hypochlorous acid in said final D bleaching stage, or a mixture thereof.
