<p><P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an analytical server integrated in a process control network. <P>SOLUTION: A process control system integrates the collection and analysis of process control data used to perform certain computationally expensive process control functions, like adaptive model generation and tuning parameter generation, in the same control device in which one or more process control routines are implemented, to thereby provide for faster and more efficient support of the process control routines. This system replaces a layered approach using multiple processing devices by integrating the analytical server which performs computationally expensive analyses used by one or more control routines directly into the real-time control device in which the control routines are located. This integration provides the ability to analyze large quantities of data for multiple process loops controlled by a particular device in a fast and efficient manner. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT</p> |
