Patent
Methods and apparatus for control using control devices that provide a virtual machine environment and that communicate via an ip network
Alexander Johnson,Paul C. Badavas,T. Eric Christiansen,Peter D. Hansen,Thomas B. Kinney,Seyamak Keyghobad,Bo Ling,Richard L. Thibault +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe a virtual machine for control using field and control devices that provide a virtual environment and communicate via an IP network. But their work is limited to the control of a single field device.
Patent
Peer-to-peer hosting of intelligent field devices
Lloyd B. Adams,Alexander Johnson +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe a system in which at least two intelligent field devices (IFDs) connected by a communications connection are stored in the first IFD and a backup of the configuration is stored in at least one other IFD.
Patent
System and method for generating control system database and graphics from schema-based intermediate descriptions
TL;DR: In this paper, a method and system for automatically generating process control databases and process graphics for a distributed control system is presented, which automatically render output in a target process control system environment (e.g., InFusion Engineering Environment - or IEE) from an intermediate representation of process control and process graphical definitions.

Patent
Remote operation of process control equipment over customer supplied network
Alexander Johnson,Chris J. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a DCS protocol message addressed to a remote DCS station is generated at a local distributed control system (DCS), and the protocol message is sent to the remote tunneling device.
