Abstract
Requirements for product quality and the increased number
of complex specialty products as well as flexibility
requirements for the usage of production equipment have
emphasized the benefits of discontinuous batch
production in the process industries. Even if batch
control has for a long been a challenge to control
engineers, emerging standards and software component
technologies have now made novel automation concepts
possible. VTT Auto-mation is developing a new software
component based framework for batch process management.
The experi-mental domain specific framework integrates
the new batch control standard and existing domain
specific experi-ence with object-oriented design pattern
based approach and distributed software component
technology.
