Method and system for the dynamic allocation of program functions in distributed control systems

摘要

A method and a system are disclosed for allocating program components to distributed control devices of a control system, comprising the following steps: a) creating at least two program modules, which each comprise program components, data interfaces and performance parameters for the definition of a performance requirement; b) linking the program modules via data connections between the data interfaces to form a control program; c) ascertaining available control devices and the performance capability thereof in the control system; d) ascertaining possible allocations of the program modules and verification by a comparison between the requirement and performance capability; c) selecting and allocating a verified allocation; and f) configuring data exchange channels between the distributed control devices.
