Aspects and Objects

Aspect Object Concept

Plant entities are represented as Aspect Objects

Valves, Pumps, Vessels, Batch, Product, Raw Material, ...

Objects have different Aspects

Graphics, Alarms, Trends, Reports Mechanical Layout, Control Aspect Order Definition, Cost...

Different aspects are managed through different Aspect Systems
