Abstract :
A concept for distributed control systems is outlined. The concept is based on a plant database containing descriptions of the plant and the control system. The database is object-based and supports multiple view of an objects. A demonstrator is presented where a DCS of this type is emulated. The demonstrator contains a number of control, monitoring and diagnosis applications that execute in real time against a simulation of a Steritherm sterilisation process
