An industrial integrated development environment (IDE) provides a development framework for designing, programming, and configuring multiple aspects of an industrial automation system using a common design environment and data model. Projects creating using embodiments of the IDE system can be built on an object-based model rather than, or in addition to, a tag-based architecture. To this end, the IDE system can support the use of automation objects that serve as building blocks for this object-based development structure. To ensure consistency within and between projects, as well as to ensure that a given industrial project is dynamically updated to reflect changes to an industrial asset's attributes (e.g., control code, visualization definitions, testing scripts, analytic code, etc.), embodiments of the IDE system can use automation object inheritance features to propagate changes made to an automation object definition to all instances of the automation object used throughout a control project.

A method for digitally modeling an industrial space, the industrial space including a plurality of pieces of equipment (E3) disposed in an industrial building (B), the modeling method including a step of three-dimensionally digitizing the industrial space so as to obtain a web (NAP) defining meshes representing the outer envelope of the industrial space with all of its pieces of equipment (E3), a step of real-time segmenting the web (NAP) in a virtual environment by a user during which: a bounding box (F) is positioned to bound at least one piece of equipment to be segmented (E3), and the points of the web (NAP), belonging to the volume of the bounding box (F), are associated so as to form a virtual object (OBJ).

A production design support device stores facility element information composed of specifications of facility elements; stores operation element information composed of specifications of operation elements including triggering conditions of necessary operation elements and an output destination after completion of operation; stores a production line model defined by a combination of components including link information that associates the facility element and the operation element, the facility element information, and the operation element information, or basic data of the production line model including a combination of operation elements and facility elements; sets a plurality of pieces of information among changeable specifications, changeable specifications in the operation element information, and changeable link information as variable parameters of a plurality of independent variables to generate a problem space; and causes a learning processing unit to execute an analysis process of acquiring an optimum solution or an optimum solution group of a production design.

Disclosed are a self-adaptive configuration method and system for linkage response of a construction type, a motion type, a control type and an optimization type. The disclosure aims to provide the self-adaptive configuration method and system for linkage response of quick adjustment and design of a workshop production line. The self-adaptive configuration method comprises the following steps of step A: construction type configuration; step B: motion type design; step C: control type design; and step D: optimization type evolution, wherein the step D comprises first-level iterative optimization, second-level iterative optimization and third-level iterative optimization. A closed optimization cycle is formed by the first-level iterative optimization, the second-level iterative optimization and the third-level iterative optimization jointly, and the multi-level iterative optimization is performed on the production line linkage design framework, so that the workshop production line can be self-adaptively and quickly adjusted and designed.

An industrial IDE supports development of control programming using an industrial domain-specific language (DSL) that allows control programming to be written using a scripted programming language having features catered to the industrial domain. The industrial DSL can simplify and streamline development of industrial control code relative to using conventional graphics-based control programming formats such as ladder logic, since a script-based industrial DSL can be used to write programming code using fewer mouse clicks relative to traditional control programming environments. Editing tools inherent to the industrial DSL can provide dynamic programming feedback that guides the developer through the process of developing control code. A development interface of the industrial IDE can comprises two editing windows that render the control program in a graphical format and in a text-based format simultaneously, allowing the user to edit the program in either format on the same interface.

A system construction assistance program causes a computer to execute a history creation step, an input step, a storage step, a search step, and a display step of displaying action information searched. The history creation step is for receiving a plurality of pieces of setting information indicating settings of production devices and storing the setting information. The input step is for receiving an input of action information indicating an action against an abnormality. The storage step is for storing the action information and the change content of the setting information accompanying occurrence of the abnormality in association with each other. The search step is for searching, in a case of occurrence of an abnormality in the production devices, for the action information for the abnormality occurring in the production devices from among the stored action information, using as a search condition the change content of the setting information.
