APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR IDENTIFYING, VISUALIZING, AND TRIGGERING WORKFLOWS FROM AUTO-SUGGESTED ACTIONS TO RECLAIM LOST BENEFITS OF MODEL-BASED INDUSTRIAL PROCESS CONTROLLERS

摘要

A method includes obtaining data associated with operation of an industrial process controller and identifying impacts of operational problems of the industrial process controller. The method also includes generating a graphical display for a user, where the graphical display presents one or more recommended actions to reduce or eliminate at least one of the impacts of at least one of the operational problems. The method further includes triggering at least one of the one or more recommended actions based on input from the user. The method could also include executing one or more analytic algorithms to process the obtained data and identify the operational problems of the industrial process controller. Each of the one or more analytic algorithms could be instantiated as a container, and multiple containers could be instantiated and executed as needed. Results of executing the one or more analytic algorithms could be transformed into a standard format.
