Industrial software refers to software used in industrial fields, including systems, applications, middleware, and embedded systems. Typically, industrial software comprises programming languages, system software, and is further divided into applications and middleware. System software provides the most basic functions for computer use but is not specific to any particular application area. Conversely, different applications provide different functions based on the user and service area.
Industrial software is generally divided into embedded software and non-embedded software. Embedded software is software that integrates controllers, communication, and detection devices for data acquisition, control, and communication. Non-embedded software is software installed on ordinary or industrial control computers for design, programming, processing, monitoring, and management.
Embedded software, especially when used in military electronics and industrial control, has particularly high requirements for reliability, security and real-time performance. It requires strict control and evaluation, and also emphasizes the design of related software such as CAD and CAE.
Industrial software not only possesses the characteristics of software but also exhibits unique industrial features. With the continuous development of the automation industry, a key factor driving enterprises to adjust their economic structure and change their economic growth model is the continuous accumulation of industry knowledge. Therefore, industry application knowledge is considered a crucial factor in the development of the automation industry.
1. Industrial software is crucial when there is no process support.
The target service objectives of control software differ across industries. The steel industry targets the metallurgical industry, while the machinery industry rarely applies control software, and vice versa. A good industrial control software system can not only meet current process requirements but also enable the implementation of control concepts ahead of schedule. It can be done, and it won't be late.
2. Industrial software must be supported by industry data storage.
An industrial data knowledge base refers to the collection of experience accumulated in industrial production processes to support industrial control software. In particular, the core knowledge, software, collection technologies, and data in industrial production processes are also the foundation for setting up a "Chinese brain" in China's automatic control systems. The main contents include empirical calculation formulas, technical technologies, various accident handling and operation experience, operation manuals, technical specifications, process models, algorithm parameters, and collection of various production process data, including counting and proportional redistribution, as well as technical specifications, operating procedures, national calculations, and software existing in documents.
The development and production of industrial control software products in various industries are on the rise, and industry databases are becoming the core of industrial control software. Core elements are being developed and strengthened, which is also our advantage. The establishment of industry data knowledge bases will make industry knowledge the engine for the development of industrial control software, and China Nuo will transform the technical level of Dongkong software from low to high.
