An intelligent decision making and notification system based on a knowledge-enabled supervisory monitoring platform

This work describes a knowledge-based framework which is able to communicate online with process systems utilizing the existing infrastructure and provide knowledgeable actions to the operators. The proposed knowledge-enabled supervisory monitoring (KSM) platform combines components of existing standards such as ISA-95 in order to facilitate the data exchange between the automation system and the data repository. The functionalities of the developed platform are demonstrated using the requirements of an industrial control system of a continuous process and aim at the evaluation of the process and equipment performance based on predefined rules.
