In addition to its software characteristics, industrial software also has distinct industry features. With the continuous development of the automation industry, by accumulating industry knowledge and taking industry application knowledge as a key element in the development of the automation industry, it has gradually become a major factor for enterprises to adjust their economic structure and transform their economic growth model.
1. Industrial software cannot function without process support.
Industrial control software for different industries serves different target audiences. For example, the steel industry's software targets the metallurgical industry, making it difficult to adapt to the machinery industry, and vice versa. A good industrial control software not only meets current process requirements but also incorporates advanced control concepts, ensuring it remains relevant for a certain period.
2. Industrial software must be supported by an industry data knowledge base.
An industry data knowledge base refers to a collection of accumulated experience from industry production processes that supports industry control software. It is particularly important to note the compilation of key knowledge, software, know-how, and data related to industry production processes; this is the foundation for equipping my country's automation control systems with a "Chinese brain." Its main contents include:
After collecting various data during the production process, we compile empirical calculation formulas, technical know-how, experience in handling various accidents, and operational experience, including operation manuals, technical specifications, process models, algorithm parameters, coefficients, and weight ratios. This includes both technical specifications, operation procedures, and national standards in document form, as well as core software content and solution tools such as empirical formulas and model algorithms.
The development and production of industrial control software products for different industries are on the rise. Industry knowledge bases are becoming the core and fundamental element of industrial control software, which is also our advantage. Building a good industry knowledge base will turn industry knowledge into the driving force for the development of industry control software and promote the transformation of my country's industrial control software technology from low-end to high-end.
