Description

FIELD OF TECHNOLOGY

[01] The present invention relates to computer systems and, more specifically, to systems and methods for modeling and calculating chemical-technological systems, as well as to systems and methods for calculating apparatuses of chemical-technological schemes.

BACKGROUND

[02] When creating a new technological system (in particular, a chemical-technological system) or modernizing an existing one with the aim of creating efficient production or increasing the efficiency of existing production, it is necessary to know the parameters of the elements of the technological (in particular, the technological scheme modules) scheme and the technological scheme as a whole . In order to find out the parameters of the technological scheme, it is necessary to carry out its calculation. Such calculations can be made by modeling technological schemes.

[03] Simulation is one of the main ways to accelerate technological progress, create and commission new installations, etc.

[04] The disadvantages of existing systems, such as CHEMCAD, Aspen PRO II, as well as HYSYS, which implement the calculation of chemical-technological schemes in various ways, include the single-user mode of operation of such systems, since they are software installed on the user's computer, using only the Microsoft Windows operating system.

[05] One of the features of the system that implements the method described in the present invention is the cross-platform of such a system, ie platform client system independence. In particular, the system described in the framework of the present invention can be implemented as an Internet application (web application), in which the client is a web browser, and the server is a web server, which allows several users to provide access to the calculation of the designed technological scheme or several projected technological schemes.

[06] Also, one of the drawbacks of existing systems that implement methods for calculating technological schemes is the inability to use more than one calculation system (including systems for industrial modeling of technological schemes and devices), a calculation algorithm, a calculation model, a program for calculating a technological scheme or device ( apparatus of chemical technological schemes).

[07] Another feature of the system that implements the method described in the present invention is the ability to use several systems (algorithms, modules) of calculation / simulation simultaneously (hereinafter, the calculation module implemented by at least one software module) designed for calculating devices and modules (including for calculating the same apparatus and / or technological scheme with different calculation systems), which allows you to combine the results of calculations of various calculation systems (including industrial systems simulation), including in one technological scheme. Also, each module of the technological scheme can be calculated by various industrial modeling systems, which allows comparison of calculation results. If some characteristics are known (for example, characteristics / parameters of the device’s output flows, gas temperature after the compressor, etc.) of the components of the technological scheme (for example, the user editing / modeling the existing technological scheme already knows some of its characteristics), then the user can evaluate which of the proposed calculation systems more accurately describes the existing technological scheme (for example, see and evaluate which of the used calculation systems most accurately calculated the value ue elements flowsheet (flowsheet modules), e.g., gas temperature after the compressor), which improves the simulation efficiency flowsheets.

[08] It is worth noting that in existing systems for modeling and calculation of chemical-technological schemes, the addition of new calculation modules of chemical-technological schemes is carried out only by adding to the calculation system in the form of dynamically connected libraries (Dynamic Link Library, DLL), which severely limits the possibility of integration different calculation models into the calculation system of chemical technological schemes and makes it impossible to connect calculation modules / software modules not written specifically for Windows Object Linking and Embedding (technologist I Object Linking and Embedding in other documents and objects, abbr. OLE).

[09] Another drawback of existing systems for calculating chemical-technological schemes and chemical-technological processes is the single-user mode of operation of such systems (applications) and require the installation of a separate copy of the software (such a calculation system) on each user computer on which it is planned to calculate the chemical -technological schemes, which makes it difficult to use the results of calculations of chemical-technological schemes and created by one user chemical-technological schemes by other users ovatelyami. Such decisions also depend on the computer platform (computer processor architecture, type of operating system, software installed on the user's computer, etc.), which makes it impossible to use software written for a single computer platform (for example, on a personal computer running operating system Apple OsX / MacOs), on another computer platform (for example, on a personal computer running the Microsoft Windows operating system).

[010] Also, in addition to existing (for example, on the server or connected to the server) systems (calculation algorithms, calculation modules / calculation modules), calculation, in particular, implemented by at least one software module, in the calculation of technological schemes, modules and apparatuses, calculation algorithms / calculation modules / calculation modules / calculation models written, for example, by a user, server administrator, by means of systems connected to a server performing the calculation mentioned above, in one of the programming languages in particular, in a scripting programming language, as described below, moreover, such calculation algorithms can be specified in the process of creating or adjusting a technological scheme or in the process of updating or adding a module of a technological scheme, as well as after calculating the technological scheme, apparatus, module of the technological scheme and etc. Thus, in the system described in the present invention, the described method for calculating technological schemes is implemented, it is possible to add elements of the technological scheme, in particular, modules of the technological scheme (which are not already in the system for calculating the technological scheme) on the user side, and it is also possible to introduce corrections for the technological scheme (in particular, the flow parameters can be adjusted, for example, by adding heat losses in the pipeline between two duli technological scheme).

[011] Thus, the individual calculation of the module can be integrated into the described system not only as a Windows component, for example, in the form of a DLL library, but also as a separate process on any computer system, which increases the efficiency of integration of the technological scheme modules.

[012] In addition, the system described in the present invention allows you to specify a simplified description of the modules, allowing for quick preliminary calculation of the technological scheme. Further, after preliminary calculation of the technological scheme, the used modules with a simplified description of the calculation can be replaced by modules with a full description, i.e. modules that more accurately describe real-life devices, after which the system is able to perform a detailed calculation of the technological scheme. A simplified description of the modules can be set by the user through one of the computer programming languages, including scripting programming languages, as will be disclosed as part of the description of the present invention.

[013] Another advantage of the method and system described in the present invention is the use of the standard language of the Enterprise Service Bus. On the server, for the modulated system, a configuration file is created with the configuration task processed by the means / elements of the Enterprise Service Bus. The configuration file contains data recorded in a text format, which makes it possible to read and edit it without using additional software, including, for example, a software or graphical user interface, and allows you to use any standard text editor already installed on the user's computer.

[014] In existing systems for calculating technological schemes, as a rule, to add a new apparatus, it is necessary to update at least the graphical user interface, for example, by adding a new form containing the characteristics / parameters of the apparatus for such an apparatus, including the parameters of the apparatus to be added. In addition, when adding a new device to the settlement system on the server, the graphical user interface is not automatically updated.

[015] In turn, the calculation system and method described in the present invention allow generating inputs, outputs of apparatuses, modules, etc., their parameters / characteristics, as well as a form for inputting / setting characteristics / parameters for the apparatus based on the description of the corresponding module located on the server.

[016] In addition, the known existing systems for calculating technological schemes, as a rule, use for computing the computer device on which it is installed, in particular, the user's personal computer, while the calculation on a server or several servers (described in the framework of this invention) allows you to use the resources of powerful computing devices, thereby reducing the time spent on the calculation of technological schemes, which allows to increase the speed of calculation of technological schemes and its components by using a distributed computing system.

[017] Accordingly, based on an analysis of the current state of the art and capabilities, there is a need in the art for a system and method for modeling and calculating chemical-technological systems, as well as a system and method for calculating apparatuses of a chemical-technological scheme.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

[059] The objects and features of the present invention, methods for achieving these objects and features will become apparent by reference to exemplary embodiments. However, the present invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments disclosed below, it can be embodied in various forms. The essence described in the description is nothing more than the specific details provided to assist the specialist in the field of technology in a comprehensive understanding of the invention, and the present invention is defined only in the scope of the attached claims.

[060] A chemical-technological scheme (CTS) is a description of a technological system characterized by at least one technological process and consists of apparatuses (in particular, chemical apparatuses, chemical-technological apparatuses, technological apparatuses, etc.). Devices (in which technological processes occur, including chemical and chemical-technological processes) are modules of the technological scheme connected by technological channels through which flows are transferred (chemical-technological flows). Each flow in the technological scheme corresponds to at least one Channel connecting at least two modules. Examples of apparatus include mass transfer apparatus, evaporators, distillation column, adsorber, etc. Channels, both for the technological scheme module and for the technological scheme, are divided into input channels and output channels. In the particular case, the output channel from one module of the technological scheme is the input channel for another module of the technological scheme. Channels serve / are used for communication / connection of the modules of the technological scheme and are used for transmitting flows between the modules of the technological scheme. Each device is included in the module of the chemical-technological scheme. The module of the technological scheme can be calculated by at least one calculation module (implementing at least one algorithm for calculating the module of the technological scheme), which is a software solution (software, program) by which the calculation is performed. For one type of apparatus, there may be several calculation modules that are capable of calculating this type of apparatus in various ways, for example, a compressor-type apparatus can be implemented by calculation modules such as:

[061] - calculation module that allows you to calculate a specific model of the apparatus using software supported by the system described in the framework of the present invention;

[062] - a calculation module that allows you to calculate a specific model of the device using the industrial modeling program (calculation program);

[063] - calculation module that allows you to calculate a specific model of the device using MatLab software (calculation program)

[064] etc.

[065] The task of modeling is to determine the output streams of apparatus 110 in FIG. 1 (chemical-technological process, chemical-technological scheme, chemical-technological system, chains of chemical-technological schemes, etc.) based on its mathematical model (120, 130, 140 in FIG. 1), i.e. mathematical description of the apparatus and the definition of its properties and features. The technological scheme consists of devices that convert input streams to output streams. The possible number of such devices can be in the tens, hundreds, etc., while the technological schemes that can be created using the devices can be created by an infinite number. In this regard, as a rule, a mathematical model for each scheme is not created, since it is an extremely resource-intensive task. Mathematical models of devices describe in detail the operation of devices, for example, describe how the output stream will change, based on the input stream and the properties of the device. At the same time, the mathematical model does not take into account which technological scheme one or another apparatus is used in, since such parameters as initial data (properties, characteristics, parameters of input streams and apparatus), set, for example, by the user or parts of an automated control system, play a role . However, even if a mathematical model of the apparatus is used, the parameters of the apparatus output streams cannot always be calculated with high accuracy. Often, the most accurate methods for calculating chemical-technological apparatuses (apparatuses of a chemical-technological scheme) are based on solving differential equations of ordinary or partial derivatives, on complex iterative methods with unwarranted convergence, especially if the initial conditions are inaccurate. Thus, several models can be used for calculations, so the ability to choose a model is very important for the user. In this regard, to solve a mathematical model, various algorithms can be used (150, 152, 154, 156, 158, 159 in FIG. 1), which solve the mathematical model with one degree or another. Thus, there are a technological apparatus (compressor, pump, separator, mixer, etc.), a mathematical model that describes the operation of the apparatus (there may be several mathematical models) and algorithms that calculate mathematical models (which may also be several for each mathematical models). The calculation module (160, 162, 164, 166 in FIG. 1), described in the framework of the present invention, is an implementation of one of the possible algorithms for calculating the mathematical model of the apparatus.

[066] For example, gas is supplied to the compressor, the chemical-technological parameters of the flows are known, i.e. the composition of the gas, the concentration of the chemical elements that make up the gas, pressure, temperature and flow, it is necessary to determine how its pressure, temperature and flow will change after passing through the apparatus. The calculation module calculates the devices and / or modules of the technological scheme, that is, determines the properties / parameters of the output flows based on the type of apparatus and / or module of the technological scheme and input information. The output stream for one device and / or module of the technological scheme is the input for the next.

[067] The module of the technological scheme, calculated by at least one element of the Service Bus of the Enterprise, in particular, the calculation module (calculation module), is characterized by at least the type of at least one device, a set of input and output flows and their characteristics, as well as properties describing the apparatus and / or module of the technological scheme, for example, such properties for the heat exchanger include the heat transfer coefficient, and for membrane separation - the membrane area and its parameters.

[068] Streams, both for the module of the technological scheme, and for the technological scheme, are divided into input streams and output streams. Streams can be divided into at least two types: material flows (material flows) and energy flows. Material flows describe the flows of substances and their properties / parameters, such as the composition and concentration of components / components (chemical elements), consumption of components and physical properties of components, for example, temperature, pressure, etc. Energy flows describe energy flows (thermal, electric, etc.) supplied to modules or removed from process modules.

[069] Thus, for example, the material stream may be a liquid or gas stream. If we consider a compressor as an apparatus (described by the technological module), the compressor input stream can be represented by gas, which is supplied to the compressor input, and the output stream can be represented by gas leaving the compressor. For the compressor to work, electricity must be connected to it - this is the energy flow, which is measured in kilowatt hours (kWh).

[070] In FIG. 2 shows an exemplary embodiment of the production line (in the form of a technological scheme) using the example of the production of sour cream. The input stream 210 for this production line in this particular case is whole milk. The characteristics of the input stream can be the following parameters: temperature 12 degrees Celsius, flow rate 100 l / h; composition: water 12%, milk 84%, fat 4%.

[071] In the first apparatus 215 (represented by a mixer), the input stream 210 is mixed with the normalized milk stream 248, while the milk parameters (in particular, the composition of the milk and its temperature) are changed, thus dynamically changing the characteristics of the input stream 210. Then through apparatus 220 (represented by a pump) milk (a mixture of whole and pasteurized milk) is supplied to apparatus 225 (represented by a pasteurizer), where the milk is heated to a temperature of 60 degrees Celsius. Next, the milk enters the apparatus 230 (which can be a pasteurization bath). Next, pasteurized milk 234 (which in this case is the output stream of the apparatus 230 and the input stream of the apparatus 235) enters the apparatus 235 (represented by a pump) and then is supplied to the apparatus 240 (cream separator). In the apparatus 240, pasteurized milk is divided into two streams with different fractions of fat: stream 241 (with high fat content) and 242 (skim milk). The stream 242 through the apparatus 244 (pump) is supplied to the apparatus 246 (which is a storage bath / normalization bath), from which it is then mixed with the input stream 210 in the apparatus 215.

[072] Stream 241 enters the apparatus 250 (which is a pasteurizer), from which, using the apparatus 255 (represented by a pump), the finished sour cream is supplied. The output stream (258) of this production line in this particular case is sour cream with certain characteristics (temperature, fat content, flow rate, etc.).

[073] Shown in FIG. 2, the circuit can be calculated in the system shown in FIG. 3, in order to determine the parameters of the output stream (258), as well as the parameters of each of the devices (in particular, 215, 220, 225, 230, 235, 240, 250, 255, 258, 244, 246), as well as intermediate streams ( in particular, 241 and 242) present in the technological scheme (technological line, technological system), for example, power consumption and productivity of each device.

[074] FIG. 3 shows a block diagram of one embodiment of a system that implements the present invention. As shown in FIG. 3, the system 300 can be represented by two parties: the client side / client part 310 and the server side / server part 370. The client part 310 can be represented by at least one computing device, for example, a personal computer, a server, a mobile device (smartphone, phone, laptop, etc.). The client part 310 includes at least a data input interface 320 (in particular, a user interface) and at least one technological scheme 330 (consisting of modules of the technological scheme, 340A ... 340N, in particular, the technological modules of the devices 215 220, 225, 230, 235, etc. shown in FIG. 2 and streams 350, in particular, 248, 242, 241 shown in FIG. 2, including output streams 210 and 258). As mentioned above, the calculation modules are software or program code with which the devices and modules of the chemical-technological scheme 340A-340N can be calculated in various ways, in particular, the calculation modules 388A-388N reflect the software, which can be used to calculate the devices, while the modules of the technological scheme (in particular, the algorithms by which the devices are calculated and, accordingly, the algorithms of the modules of the technological scheme) can be placed on the server side 370, and, in the particular case, on the client side 310, i.e., calculations can be performed both on the server side 370 of the system, and on the client / user side 310 of the system. It is also worth noting that part of the devices and modules of the chemical-technological scheme can be designed on the server side, and part on the client side. So, for example, at least one user script (described below) can be processed / on the server side, and at least one algorithm / program code of the modules for calculating the modules of the technological scheme can be located (and / or calculated / processed) on the server side. As the data input / output interface 320, a user interface / user interface (user-side interface) can be used (used, for example, as a web interface, an application / software interface for personal computers, servers, mobile devices (e.g. smartphones, mobile phones, tablets) and other computing devices. It is worth noting that the input-output interface 320 can be implemented in the form of a Graphical User Interface (GUI), a command line, and other tools that allow the user to interact with the system 300, for example, to collect / construct / assemble a technological scheme and enter the initial data for devices (for example , as shown in FIG. 5), enter the source data for the apparatus and modules of the technological scheme and the entire chemical-technological scheme, etc. (in more detail, possible types and methods of user interaction with system 300 will be described below). It is also worth noting that as the data input / output interface 320, an application program interface / application programming interface / application application interface (API) can be used, which can provide the system 300 with other computing devices (e.g., a remote computer / server, mobile device) ), software, services (in particular, web services, web services), services, and / or at least one other system whose functionality may be similar, similar, or different from system 300, etc. to ensure their interaction / communication with the system 300.

[075] It is worth noting that the implementation of the client part, in particular, using the web interface allows you to implement the system 300 in the form of a cross-platform solution / cross-platform system (in the form of a cross-platform / cross-platform system that operates on more than one hardware platform and / or operating system ) and as a multi-user system. The data input interface or any other means and method of interaction / communication of a user, software, service or device allows you to create, assemble, configure, etc. technological scheme, enter / transmit the description of the technological diagram / scheme and the data necessary for calculating the technological scheme (chemical-technological scheme), chemical-technological diagram, technological process (for example, chemical-technological process), technological system (for example, chemical-technological system), individual modules of the technological scheme, a set of modules of the technological scheme (blocks of the technological scheme), etc.

[076] The data collected on the user side (client side) 310 is sent to the server side 370 to perform calculations, in particular calculations of the technological scheme and its components (in particular, technological scheme modules), i.e. characteristics of at least one output stream, characteristics of at least one output / input stream, characteristics of devices of the technological scheme, parameters of modules describing devices, etc.

[077] The server side of the system 300 may include at least one server 380 that controls the process of calculating the technological scheme, technological system (calculating its parameters / characteristics, etc.) and the characteristics of its components, as well as calculating all associated with the technological scheme and process data.

[078] After the calculation, the calculation results can be stored on the server or related devices (other servers, personal computers, storage devices, etc.) and can be sent to the client side to demonstrate / visualize the calculation results to the user (for example, in the form of an XML file containing, in particular, the properties of all streams calculated on the server side). The XML file can be transformed by the user interface into a visual representation of the calculation results to the user.

[079] It is worth noting that the configuration task can be represented by a configuration file (can be saved as a configuration file), for example, as an XML file (XML file), in a database, which, in turn, can be stored in the storage of the described server and / or on the client side. Also, the configuration file can be supplemented with calculation results and stored on a storage device, for example, in a database.

[080] Also, the configuration file can be used by the user (for example, downloaded by the user to the client side and / or opened by the user from the server), for example, to restore the original chemical-technological scheme (which, for example, was stored on the server and / or for which a calculation was made), for example, to reuse the chemical-technological scheme and / or modules of the chemical-technological scheme to conduct a new calculation of this scheme or to create a new or edited chemical-technological scheme with emy.

[081] It is also worth noting that the calculation results can be stored on the user side, including the personal computer from which the request for the calculation of the technological scheme was sent, as well as including computing devices and data storage devices connected to it.

[082] After receiving the data, the user can use the obtained calculation data, for example, to create a technological system based on the provided calculations or to adjust an existing technological system. Also, the user can change the configuration of the technological scheme, including by overriding the parameters of devices, technological scheme modules, flows, adding new technological scheme modules, changing calculation algorithms / calculation modules of devices and technological scheme modules, etc., and send a request for recalculation of the technological scheme to the server side 370.

[083] The calculation of the technological scheme is performed on the server side through the Enterprise Service Bus (from the English Enterprise Service Bus, in short - ESB). The Service Bus of the Enterprise (385 in FIG. 3) is an industrial software that describes the interaction between the elements of the Service Bus of the Enterprise in the form of Messages between the elements of the Service Bus of the Enterprise, using the configuration file / configuration task, which is described in more detail below. The Enterprise Service Bus element is part of the Enterprise Service Bus described in the configuration task (describing the properties of the various elements of the Enterprise Service Bus and the direction of information flows (in the form of messages) between them and can be represented, for example, by a text file in XML format), the task of which is Convert incoming Messages to outgoing Messages. In other words, the technological task 330 associates the configuration task (contained, for example, in the configuration file), which is used by the Enterprise Service Bus.

[084] So, for example, in the particular case, if we consider a part of the technological scheme (consisting of modules of the technological scheme of devices 234, 235 and 240) in FIG. 2, then the local task in this case is to separate the input stream 234 (corresponding to the input channel 434 in FIG. 4) for the technological module of the apparatus 235 of the technological scheme into cream 241 and skim milk 242. This technological scheme can be represented as sets of Service items Tires of the Enterprise, in particular, the Activator of the Service Bus of the Enterprise (hereinafter the Activator) and the Adapter of the Service Bus of the Enterprise (hereinafter the Adapter), i.e. module for calculating the elements of an Enterprise Service Bus. So, for example, the technological module describing the apparatus represented by the compressor / pump 235 can be represented by at least two elements of the Enterprise Service Bus: the Activator (438 in FIG. 4) and the Adapter (439 in FIG. 4). In general, an Activator is an element that describes a conversion, with one input and output. Thus, the Activator receives a Message and, depending on the parameters (user-defined for the module and / or the technological scheme and its components), calls / activates the Adapter, which calculates the device 235 described by the corresponding technological module. As an adapter, any technological calculation system can be represented (algorithm for calculating a module of a technological scheme, apparatus, technological scheme, etc., implemented by a calculation module, in particular, a software module). Each module of the technological scheme can be associated with at least one adapter, with which this module is calculated. Depending on the adapter settings, the calculation of each such module can be performed on different servers, which is able to optimize the calculation process of the technological scheme and the technological scheme module, in particular, which can increase the efficiency of the calculation system of the technological scheme and its components. In general, an adapter type element is used to convert and send a message to a channel and process a message from a channel. The channel is an element of the Service Bus of the Enterprise, connecting the elements of the Service Bus of the Enterprise with each other, and models the direction of flows of the technological scheme (corresponds to the flows of the technological scheme). The channel is used to transmit information about flows in the form of Messages with a description of flows of the technological scheme. Messages, as an element of the Enterprise Service Bus, are a set of data describing the characteristics of the flows of the technological scheme that are transmitted through the Enterprise Service Bus Channels. So, for example, the incoming Message for apparatus 235 (pump / compressor) describes the input stream 234, and the outgoing Message for apparatus 240 (represented in this case by two elements of the Enterprise Service Bus: Activator 443 in FIG. 4 and Adapter 447 in FIG. 4) describes (sets all its necessary parameters) the output stream 241 (represented by the output channel 441 in FIG. 4) and the output stream 242 (represented by the output channel 442 in FIG. 4).

[085] That is, a message (in particular, for input channels) is data from a configuration file related to a specific flow of a technological scheme.

[086] Each apparatus of the technological scheme is represented by an information system (technological process module, technological scheme module), which, upon receipt of the Message, which contains the description of the input stream, starts the calculation module, which determines the values of the output flows. Further, these results in the form of at least one Message are transmitted to other elements of the Service Bus of the Enterprise.

[087] In FIG. 5 shows the interface for setting the source data of the device, implemented as a graphical user interface. The interface for setting the parameters of the device may include visual / graphical representations of the device (image of the device) 510, as well as elements for entering the initial data / parameters of the device 520. Saving / confirming the initial data (parameters) of the device can be performed using button 530 or automatically by closing the window for entering initial data / parameters. The interface shown in FIG. 5, may also contain an element that allows you to copy the source data for the device from the database of parameters of other devices, for example, devices of a similar type or close to the current device for which the source data is entered, for example, by selecting such devices from the list of existing / registered in the system (or connected to it) devices.

[088] FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of the process of creating, editing and calculating a flow chart. The process begins at step 610. At step 615, the initial parameters of the technological scheme are set / set, for example, the values of the input flows for the technological scheme, after which the process proceeds to step 620. At step 620, the process checks whether it is necessary to create a new technological scheme. If at step 620 it is established that there is no need to create a new technological scheme, the process proceeds to step 630, in which the user selects, for example, at least one of the existing technological schemes, after which the process proceeds to step 640. In step 640 a process verifies the need to edit a flow chart, for example, the need to add a new flowchart module, specify the parameters and properties of a new or at least one of the existing flowchart modules, the need setting parameters of input streams and output streams of the technological scheme, the need to establish links between the modules of the technological scheme through channels or redirect communications, delete, etc. existing relationships between the modules of the technological scheme and the need to change any other parameters of the technological scheme and its components. It should be noted that when establishing a connection between the modules of the technological scheme, the system can automatically select the types of channels for communication between the modules of the technological scheme, or the user can determine the type of channel by himself, choosing them from the list. Channels can be selected depending on the type of module of the technological scheme, the type of apparatus and their characteristics, for example, input streams and output streams. In the event that the user determines the wrong channel, the system will notify the user of an error when choosing the type of channel.

[089] It is also worth noting that the properties of the modules of the technological scheme are used to calculate the modules and can be set from the set of properties for each module of the technological scheme, for example, determined by the programmer (software developer who created the module) when developing the calculation module and / or calculation module or by the user when adding a flowchart module to the system described in the framework of the present invention. In the particular case, the calculation of the module of the technological scheme means the definition (calculation of the value of the output stream) of the output stream of the module (or the output flows of the modules, if there are several) of the technological scheme.

[090] If the need to edit the flowchart is established in step 640, the process proceeds to step 650, in which the process verifies the need to add a new flowchart module. If in step 650 the necessity of adding a new module of the technological scheme was not established, the process proceeds to step 660.

[091] If the need for adding a new flowchart module was determined in step 650, the process proceeds to step 655, in which one of the existing flowchart modules is selected, for example, by a system user, and then the process proceeds to step 660.

[092] In step 660, the process verifies the need to edit the added flowchart module or an existing flowchart module. If you do not need to edit the flowchart module (for example, when adding a new flowchart module, it is added with the default parameters and properties, and they meet the requirements for calculating the created / edited flowchart), then the process returns to step 640. If in step 660 establishes the need to edit the flowchart module, for example, the need to introduce the properties of the apparatus, change the calculation program / calculation module of the flowchart module, change If its properties and / or parameters are determined, as well as establishing relationships, changing relationships with other modules of the technological scheme, the process proceeds to step 670, in which the parameters and properties of the technological scheme module created or selected for editing are set, as well as the calculation method (calculation models / calculation model / calculation module / calculation module /, for example, in industrial modeling programs / applications) of the selected module (which can be represented, for example, in the form of an algorithm, program, method / method, etc.). After you configure the flowchart in step 670, the process returns to step 640.

[093] If it was determined in step 640 that the setup of the technological scheme was completed and does not require further editing, the process proceeds to step 675, in which data is transmitted to the server 380 to calculate the technological scheme and its parameters, including the parameters of its constituent parts (in particular devices, input and output streams, etc.) in step 680.

[094] After the flowchart is calculated on the server, the calculation results are sent to the client part in step 690, so that the user receives the values of the flow properties (output and intermediate) and the parameters of the flowchart modules, as well as the parameters of devices, for example, chemical devices , such as a distillation column, an adsorber, etc., and the process ends in step 695. For example, when setting input streams and their parameters (for example, for an apparatus, a technological scheme, parts of a technological scheme, ennyh chained / block, etc.) as a result of the calculation unit (processing circuit flowsheet parts united in a chain / block, etc.) are determined by the output flow and their parameters. For example, if you use an example mixer to mix two streams, then to calculate the output stream and its parameters, you need to specify the characteristics / parameters of the two streams. So, for example, water can be selected as the substance of the first stream, and alcohol as the substance of the second stream. If the same flow rate is selected, as a result of the calculation of the apparatus (mixer), the output stream will be determined, which will contain 50 percent water and 50 percent alcohol, and the characteristics / parameters of the output stream (the resulting substance in this case), for example, flow rate, temperature, pressure etc.

[095] As mentioned above, in the process of creating, editing and adjusting the technological scheme, the user can choose the method of calculating the module (calculation model / calculation model of the module / calculation model of the module). Thus, not only one module of the technological scheme can be calculated in various ways (calculation models), but several modules of the technological scheme can be calculated in at least one way (calculation module). So, for example, each module of the technological scheme can be calculated by different calculation methods, and, in the particular case, by different calculation modules.

[096] Also, in the process of calculating the apparatus (technological scheme, modules of the technological scheme, parts of the technological scheme combined into a chain / block, etc.), in particular, the chemical-technological apparatus, using at least one calculation model the properties of the apparatus (technological scheme, modules of the technological scheme, parts of the technological scheme combined into a chain / block, etc.) necessary for the implementation of a given process can be calculated, for example, the values of the optimum temperature in the output flow can be calculated e unit (at the outlet of the device).

[097] It is worth noting that modules can be arranged in blocks / chains of modules. If a block (chain), consisting of at least one device, is already described by the technological calculation system, the user can include such a block in the technological scheme as one block element, including a calculation module for it. For a block of modules, a block model calculation model (block calculation model) can also be selected. Also, part of the technological scheme can be allocated (for example, by the user) in blocks / chains, which can be stored separately from the technological scheme. The stored blocks / chains of the flowchart may include initial / input parameters / characteristics. Saved chains / blocks, including several parts of the technological scheme and the connections between them, can be added to the technological scheme (for example, to another technological scheme, which contains the same set of devices as contained in the chain) as a single module of the technological scheme. For such a module of the technological scheme (which is a set of devices and connections between them, or a set of modules and connections between us), the calculation program / calculation module can calculate its characteristics, including input, output and intermediate flows and their characteristics, which can be stored together with the module of the technological scheme and can be used to calculate the technological scheme, in particular, the module of the technological scheme, in which such a module of the technological scheme was added. It should be noted that saving the parameters / characteristics of the module together with the module or in a separate database is applicable not only to modules containing a set of devices and modules of the technological scheme, but also to the technological module describing a single device.

[098] It is also worth noting that when creating, editing and adjusting the technological scheme, the properties and parameters of the apparatuses can be set, as shown in FIG. 5. For example, in the case of using the user interface represented by the web interface, the user can enter the properties and settings of the device through a web form, in particular, an HTML form that is dynamically generated on the server from the description of the device, in particular, contained in the configuration file (configuration task), which can be stored on the server or on the user's device on the client side. As one of the input parameters (input data) describing the device, the method / method (program / model) for calculating the device (at least one element of the Service Bus of the Enterprise, in particular, the calculation model / calculation module of the device) can be used, so that a single device (or a set of devices) can be calculated by various methods / methods, in particular, elements of the Service Bus of the Enterprise.

[099] As mentioned above, technological schemes consist of technological scheme modules, each of which models the behavior of a real (or virtual apparatus, for example, when developing a new device) apparatus (compressor, heat exchanger, distillation column, etc.). To calculate each module of the technological scheme, in addition to the input flows (in particular, the characteristics / parameters / properties of the input flows), as a rule, the characteristics of the module of the technological scheme are indicated, on the basis of which the chemical-technological scheme and this specific module of the technological scheme can be calculated (for example, its output parameters), as well as at least one other module (for example, the input stream and its characteristics) of the technological scheme. The list of necessary parameters for calculating the module of the technological scheme is determined by the calculation program (calculation module that allows you to determine / calculate the characteristics of the devices, modules, technological scheme, blocks and chains of the technological scheme). The list of necessary parameters is determined by adding a flowchart module to the system, as described above (by a programmer or user, and can also be determined by the system, for example, by using the data entered by the user in the process of creating a new flowchart module, or it can be copied from the configuration file containing a description of another module of the technological scheme, similar in its functionality to the created module of the technological scheme, and the parameters of the new techno module logical scheme can be changed by the user, including changes made by the user) calculated by the calculation module, made, for example, in the form of a module calculation configuration file, which may include, but is not limited to, the name of the module / calculation program / calculation method, module description, types variables (used to calculate the apparatus during operation of the technological module), values and / or interval of possible values of the parameters of the apparatus or technological module, values for y olchaniyu (which are used for display to the user adding module flow chart), etc. In addition, the configuration file may contain a description of the types of input and output flows of the modules of the technological scheme, blocks / chains of the technological scheme or the entire technological scheme. After the block configuration file is specified, the client side / client side can request the created or edited such configuration file and provide the user with the possibility of using it to calculate the flowchart module or flowchart, or a set of flowchart modules.

[0100] It is worth noting that the configuration file can be created on the server side or on the client side, as well as on devices connected to the client side (user computer) or the server side (server 380). If the configuration file was created on the client side, then for its use it may be necessary to transfer it to server 380.

[0101] As mentioned above, when setting up the module of the technological scheme, the user can specify the calculation method of the module, including the calculation method not contained in the calculation system, for example, by connecting / enabling methods for calculating the components of the technological scheme, in particular, the modules of the technological scheme. An indication of the calculation method (in particular, by choosing a calculation module) allows you to integrate third-party developments, for example, methods for calculating modules or the modules of the technological scheme, into the calculation of the technological scheme and the modules of the technological scheme.

[0102] In addition to selecting at least one of the technological module registered in the system, the calculation module for this technological module, the user can create a technological module (for example, by setting flows, parameters, characteristics of the technological module, etc. .) and its connection with other modules of the technological scheme not only by choosing the type of module, flows and characteristics of the module from the system offered to it (presented, for example, in the form of drop-down lists, y, etc.), but also through one of the programming languages, including scripting programming languages, such as JavaScript, Jscript, Perl, Lua and others. In this case, the program code that defines the technology modules does not need to be converted into a configuration task (configuration file), since the methods described by such code are implemented inside the technology module. It should be noted that the calculation modules can be written in the language of the Service Bus of the Enterprise, for example, EL, in particular, in addition to the already created calculation modules.

[0103] It is also worth noting that the user can describe the algorithm for calculating the module (calculation module) of the technological scheme (the entire technological scheme or its chains) in various programming languages, including scripting languages, and not choose from calculation algorithms previously registered in the calculation system. Under registered programs for calculating a module or technological scheme, apparatus, etc. in the calculation system refers to plug-in third-party calculation modules / calculation programs / third-party software modules (SPM) calculation 390A-390N in FIG. 3, as well as calculation modules written by a user or server administrator / programmer (flowchart module or its chains) and stored on server 380 or related devices, including but not limited to other servers, personal computers, data storage devices, including network and cloud data storages, etc.

[0104] Using for calculation (a flow chart module, a flow chart, etc.) algorithms / programs / calculation modules (user algorithms / user programs) written by a user, a server administrator, etc. allow the calculation of modules of technological schemes, parts of technological schemes, chains of technological schemes, etc., for which there are similar algorithms, without using third-party plug-in algorithms and programs developed and / or written by third parties, for example, other companies, etc. . It is worth noting that for the calculation of such user-defined algorithms (in particular, calculation modules) that calculate the technological scheme modules, the execution / execution environment of such program code (in particular, script execution environment) 388A-388N can be used. So, for example, if such an algorithm can be defined (written) in JavaScript, then the server can use (for example, such a runtime environment can be installed on the server, or the runtime environment can be granted access via a network, in particular, a LAN or a network Internet) JavaScript Runtime Environment (JsRT) 388A. A code execution environment (a computer program execution environment) is a computing environment capable of executing program code.

[0105] The use of modules and technological schemes for describing modules of a technological scheme / process and / or calculation algorithms (calculation modules) can significantly simplify the process of modeling and calculation of modules and technological process schemes, in particular, by performing calculation / calculations on a server in the Service Bus Enterprises.

[0106] Thus, any apparatus (or module of a technological scheme) can be defined abstractly, for example, based on the function that it performs. For example, a compressor-type apparatus can be defined as a flowchart module that increases the value of the input flow by a certain amount, or a heat exchanger temperature sensor apparatus can be presented as a process flowchart module that increases or decreases the temperature of the inlet flow. The specific parameters and type of the simulated technological module can be determined, for example, by a calculation system or a recognition system of technological module by their characteristics and flows, after calculating the technological scheme, module or chain of the technological scheme, including preliminary calculation of the technological scheme in a simplified form, using simplified descriptions of the modules of the technological scheme. Preliminary calculation differs in that during the calculation of the technological scheme and, in particular, the modules of the technological scheme, less accuracy can be set, which allows to reduce the calculation time of modules in order to obtain estimated results of the technological scheme and its components, including devices, modules and flows .

[0107] As mentioned above, after the technological scheme has been configured, then all its parameters, the parameters of the technological scheme modules, devices, flows, etc. can be saved on the client side (for example, on a personal computer on which the creation and / or setup / configuration of the technological scheme and its components was performed) in the form of a description of the technical scheme and its parameters, for example, as a configuration file in any known storage format information / data, in particular, in XML format, and transmitted to the server side, to the server 380 for calculating the technological scheme and its components. It should be noted that the configuration data (setup data, configuration task) of the technological scheme can be transmitted to the server 380 (for example, in the form of a configuration file in XML format) without saving on the user / client side.

[0108] It is also worth noting that the configuration file can be created on the server 380 from the initial data set by the user for the flowchart and its components, including flowchart modules, streams, devices, etc. The initial data set by the user for the technological scheme and its components, including the technological scheme modules, flows, devices, etc., can be stored on the client side or server side, both in the form of a configuration file / task, and in the form of a list / table etc. source data and other data necessary to perform the calculation of the technological scheme, at least one calculation module.

[0109] A configuration file containing a description of the structure of all the technological scheme, as well as all the necessary parameters of modules, flows, devices of the technological scheme, etc. for the calculation of the technological scheme can be edited by the user or administrator of the calculation system before or after the calculations. Such editing of the configuration file can be performed in a text editor, including the popular text editors Notepad, Wordpad, Notepad ++, etc., and can also be edited using a web browser or user interface, including a web interface.

[0110] In the particular case, the initial data and all necessary data for performing the calculation of the technological scheme are transmitted to the server 380, where they are converted into a configuration file / configuration task, which is stored on the server side.

[0111] If the technological scheme or its parameters, modules of the technological scheme, characteristics of devices, flows, etc. will be changed (for example, by the user editing the technological scheme), for example, a new module of the technological scheme will be added or a new connection will be created, the parameters of the device will be changed, etc., then such changes will be reflected in the configuration file.

[0112] It is worth noting that the configuration files can be stored simultaneously on the server side and on the client side and be synchronized. If the configuration file is changed on the client side, the configuration file on the server side will be updated. If the configuration file is changed on the server side, this will lead to a change in the configuration file on the user side. It is worth noting that before synchronizing configuration files with new information, a configuration file containing "outdated" information can be saved, depending on whether the configuration file is updated: on the server side or on the client side.

[0113] The calculation of the technological scheme is carried out on the server side after the data for calculating the technological scheme are sent to the server side. If the data for calculating the technological scheme arrived at the server side in the form of a configuration file, the process calculates the technological scheme. If the server side received data in the form of source data that was not converted to a configuration file / configuration task, then the server 380 converts the source data (including a description of the technological scheme, modules of the technological scheme, devices, etc.) into the configuration task / configuration file . It is worth noting that such Enterprise Service Buses as WebMethods ESB, ActiveMatrix Service Bus, Oracle Service Bus, WebSphere Message Broker, Sonic ESB, WebSphere ESB, ESBRE, FuseSource, MuleESB, WSO2, JBoss ESB and others. The following example configuration file with comments (text after “//”) uses the Enterprise Service Bus / Corporate Service Bus built using at least Spring Integration (the framework for enterprise application integration based on the Spring / SpringFramework kernel and designed to develop integration solutions with an event-driven architecture or with a messaging-based architecture) and “Springframe work” (a framework for developing business applications), it is also worth noting that it can be used any other Enterprise Service Bus is used:

[0230] FIG. Figure 7 shows a block diagram of an exemplary embodiment of data processing and calculation of the technological scheme, an exemplary embodiment, the process begins at step 710. At step 720, it checks whether all necessary data for calculating the technological scheme were transmitted to the server from the client side (from the client / user side), for example , identifiers of the constituent parts of the calculated chemical-technological scheme (in particular, modules and units of the chemical-technological scheme), the relationship between such constituent parts and / or other information described in the framework of this about the invention. If in step 720 there is not enough data to calculate the technological scheme (for example, the user did not specify any parameters of the device, did not determine the characteristics of the input stream, etc.), an error message may be sent to the user and a proposal to enter the missing data for the calculation. If it was determined in step 720 that the received data is sufficient to calculate the technological scheme (i.e., all the necessary data was received from the client part of the system by the server part), then the process proceeds to step 730.

[0231] In step 730, data received from the user (description of the technological scheme / system and its components), for example, in the form of an HTTP request (that is, data sent by the user is preliminarily generated in at least one HTTP the request to the server described in the framework of the present invention) is converted to the format of the Service Bus of the Enterprise (for example, by substituting the received data from the user side into the template of the configuration task located on the server) as a configuration task for the Service Bus s Enterprises as shown below. For example, the flows whose parameters are defined can be represented as (in recording format) the input messages of the Enterprise Service Bus, which, in turn, will be fed to the input of the Enterprise Service Bus according to the specification provided by a particular Enterprise Service Bus.

[0232] Next, the process proceeds to step 740, in which each module of the technological scheme is converted into elements of the Enterprise Service Bus, depending on the number of input and output streams, and the process proceeds to step 750.

[0233] In step 750, each device is calculated using the most suitable element of the Enterprise Service Bus, for example, if the separation of flows occurs (the device has several output streams), the Router element of the Enterprise Service Bus mentioned above can be used, and if the device has several input streams, then the Aggregator element can be used, which can collect several messages into one, as shown in the example code above.

[0234] Next, the process proceeds to optional step 760, in which the layout / collection of calculations of all modules and components of the technological scheme is carried out in the calculation results of the technological scheme. It should be noted that the calculation results of the technological scheme and its individual modules of the technological scheme, devices, etc. can be transmitted to the client part of the system 300 as they are ready, i.e., for example, the calculation of the first module of the technological scheme, then the third, then the sixth, then the second, etc. can be transmitted. It is also worth noting that the layout of the calculation results of the technological scheme can be carried out on the client side, as soon as the client side has received all the calculation data. The data transfer in parts can reduce the load on the computer network, so in the case of calculating a large technological scheme, the assembled file can have a sufficiently large volume for its transfer, in this case, transferring by calculation packets (as they are ready) each of the parts of the technological scheme to the client side significantly relieve the computer network, in particular the network channel between the client and server sides.

[0235] After step 760, the process proceeds to optional step 770, in which the calculation results are saved to the server 380, for example, as a list in text files, in the form of tables, or in any other format.

[0236] After step 770, the process proceeds to step 780, in which the client side is transmitted / made available to the client side (or the client side, these results can be accessed over the network without the need to transfer them in the form of files to the client side / client device, for example, they can be accessed by the user via the web interface via the Internet) the results of the calculation of the technological scheme, for example, as a text file, in particular in XML format, and the process ends in step 790.

[0237] The following is an example of the calculation of the technological apparatus on the server side using the Enterprise Service Bus.

[0238] As mentioned above, to calculate the technological apparatus (apparatus) in the Service Bus of the Enterprise, the representation of the technological apparatus in the configuration task is set. In the general case, such a representation of the technological task may have the following form:

[0239] "

[0240] <int: channel id = "moduleInputChanner />

[0241] <int: channel id = "moduleOutputChannel" />

[0242] <int: service-activator input-channel = "moduleInputChannel"

[0243] output-channel = "moduleOutputChannel"

[0244] ref = "moduleService"

[0245] method = "process" />

[0246] <bean id = "moduleService" class = "com.almeesoft.moduleCalculation">

[0247] <constructor-arg ref = "moduleOutputChannel" />

[0248] <property name = "inputSource1" value = "module1" />

[0249] <property name = "inputSource2" value = "module2" />

[0250] <property name = "outputSource1" value = "module3" />

[0251] <property name = "outputSource2" value = "module4" />

[0252] <property name = "moduleProperty1" value = "value1" />

[0253] <property name = "moduleProperty2" value = "value2" />

[0254] <property name = "moduleProperty3" value = "value3" />

[0255] </bean>

[0256] "

[0257] For each, an input channel ("<int: channel id =" moduleInputChannel "/>") and an output channel ("<int: channel id =" moduleOutputChannel "/>") are defined. A message is sent to the input channel "moduleInputChannel" ("<int: service-activator input-channel =" moduleInputChanner ""), after which the activator calls the method "process" ("method =" process "") of the class "com.almeesoft.moduleCalculation "(" <Bean id = "moduleService" class = "com.almeesoft.moduleCalculation"> "), in which the technological apparatus is calculated. After the calculation is completed, a message with the values of the output streams is sent to the output channel "moduleOutputChannel" ("<constructor-arg ref =" moduleOutputChannel "/> <property name =" inputSource1 "value =" module1 "/> <property name =" inputSource2 "value =" module2 "/> <property name =" outputSource1 "value =" module3 "/> <property name =" outputSource2 "value =" module4 "/>)). The parameters "moduleProperty1", "moduleProperty2", "moduleProperty3" ("<property name =" moduleProperty1 "value =" value1 "/> <property name =" moduleProperty2 "value = can be determined / calculated "value2" /> <property name = "moduleProperty3" value = "value3" /> »).

[0258] Thus, as shown above, the activator can have only one input and one output stream. If the device has several input streams, then they are combined in one Message in the form of a HashMap array (an array based on hash tables that implements storage of hash sums in the form of key-value pairs) with keys transmitted in the properties of the modules of the technological scheme “inputSource1” , "InputSource2" as shown above. Also, as was shown above, as an element of the Service Bus of the Enterprise, an Aggregator element can be used that can combine several Messages into one. So, for example, an Aggregator can be added to the configuration task, which is able to receive input Messages from the modules of the technological scheme and combine them into one Message in order to transmit the combined Message to the Activator.

[0259] "<int: aggregator id =" messageAggregator "

[0260] input-channel = "moduleAggregatorInputChanner"

[0261] output-channel = "moduleInputChannel"

[0262] ref = "aggregatorService"

[0263] method = "aggregateMessages" />

[0264] <bean id = "aggregatorService" class = "com.almeesoft.messageAggregator">

[0265] <property name = "waitingMessageNumber" value = "2" />

[0266] </ bean »>

[0267] If the device has several output streams, the Router described above can be added to the circuit, which routes the output Messages through the appropriate channels, depending on the “outputSource” property defined in the messageChannel header of the message.

[0268] "

[0269] <int: channel id = "module3InputChannel" />

[0270] <int: channel id = "module4InputChannel" />

[0271] <int: header-value-router input-channel = "moduleOutputChannel" header-name = "messageChannel">

[0272] <int: mapping value = "module3" channel = "module3InputChannel" />

[0273] <int: mapping value = "module4" channel = "module4InputChannel" />

[0274] </ int: header-value-router>

[0275] "

[0276] The following describes a process for integrating a process module into the system described in the framework of the present invention. To integrate a new device into the system (by the user or server operator), the server side operator (or developer) or the user must define / describe at least one module for calculating the device (or module), for example, in XML format. Such a description of the calculation module (determination of the modules with which the apparatus can be calculated) consists of two parts: client and server. The client part of the description may contain:

[0277] - type of module;

[0278] - the name of the module;

[0279] - a short textual description of the module displayed to the user on the client side;

[0280] - the number and types of input and output streams;

[0281] - a list of available adapters to the user on the client side;

[0282] is a list of parameter descriptions for each adapter.

[0283] The adapter parameter description may include a parameter name, parameter description, type and range of valid parameter values.

[0284] Based on the client part of the description, the above-described interface can be created (a user interface, for example, a web interface), with which, for example, the user can enter the data necessary for calculating the technological scheme, modules of the technological scheme, devices, as was described above.

[0285] The server part of the description of the calculation module for each of the adapters contains a configuration task, which is used by the Service Bus of the Enterprise to calculate the module of the technological scheme, and a list of the necessary parameters necessary for calculating the device.

[0424] In FIG. Figure 8 shows an example of a general-purpose computer system that includes a multi-purpose computing device in the form of a computer 20 or a server including a processor 21, a system memory 22, and a system bus 23 that couples various system components, including the system memory to the processor 21.

[0425] The system bus 23 may be any of various types of bus structures, including a memory bus or memory controller, a peripheral bus, and a local bus using any of a variety of bus architectures. System memory includes read-only memory (ROM) 24 and random access memory (RAM) 25. The ROM 24 stores the basic input / output system 26 (BIOS), consisting of basic routines that help exchange information between elements within the computer 20, for example, at the time of launch.

[0426] Computer 20 may also include a hard disk drive 27 for reading from and writing to a hard disk, not shown, a magnetic disk drive 28 for reading from or writing to a removable magnetic disk 29, and an optical disk drive 30 for reading from or writing to a removable optical disc 31 such as a CD, a digital video disc, and other optical means. The hard disk drive 27, the magnetic disk drive 28, and the optical disk drive 30 are connected to the system bus 23 by means of the hard disk drive interface 32, the magnetic disk drive interface 33, and the optical drive interface 34, respectively. Storage devices and their respective computer-readable means provide non-volatile storage of computer-readable instructions, data structures, program modules and other data for computer 20.

[0427] Although the typical configuration described here uses a hard disk, a removable magnetic disk 29, and a removable optical disk 31, one skilled in the art will appreciate that other types of computer-readable media that can store data that are accessible with using a computer, such as magnetic tapes, flash memory cards, digital video discs, Bernoulli cartridges, random access memory (RAM), read-only memory (ROM), etc.

[0428] Various software modules, including operating system 35, may be stored on a hard disk, magnetic disk 29, optical disk 31, ROM 24, or RAM 25. Computer 20 includes a file system 36 associated with the operating system 35 or included in it, one or more software applications 37, other program modules 38 and program data 39. The user can enter commands and information into the computer 20 using input devices such as a keyboard 40 and pointing device 42. Other input devices (not shown) may include yuchat a microphone, joystick, game pad, satellite dish, scanner, or any other.

[0429] These and other input devices are connected to the processor 21 often through a serial port interface 46 that is connected to the system bus, but can be connected via other interfaces, such as a parallel port, game port, or universal serial bus (USB). A monitor 47 or other type of visual display device is also connected to the system bus 23 via an interface, such as a video adapter 48. In addition to the monitor 47, personal computers typically include other peripheral output devices (not shown), such as speakers and printers.

[0430] Computer 20 may operate in a networked environment through logical connections to one or more remote computers 49. The remote computer (or computers) 49 may be another computer, server, router, network PC, peer device, or other node on a single network, and also typically includes most or all of the elements described above with respect to computer 20, although only an information storage device 50 is shown. Logical connections include a local area network (LAN) 51 and a global computer network (GCS) 52. Such network environments are usually common in institutions, corporate computer networks, and the Internet.

[0431] The computer 20 used in the LAN network environment is connected to the local area network 51 via a network interface or adapter 53. The computer 20 used in the GC network environment typically uses a modem 54 or other means to establish communication with the global computer network 52, such like the internet.

[0432] The modem 54, which may be internal or external, is connected to the system bus 23 via the serial port interface 46. In a networked environment, program modules or parts thereof described with reference to computer 20 may be stored on a remote information storage device. It should be noted that the network connections shown are typical, and other means may be used to establish communication communication between computers.

[0433] In conclusion, it should be noted that the information provided in the description are examples that do not limit the scope of the present invention defined by the claims. One skilled in the art will recognize that there may be other embodiments of the present invention consistent with the spirit and scope of the present invention.
