| 20090265157 | System for simulating automated industrial plants - Automation technology facilities are used for automating industrial processes such as the control of conveyor belts. A high-level control device with a logical model of the plant stored in the control device is disclosed. Simulation models and control programs are generated by the control device. The generated control programs have special data blocks which contain the parameters that are to be optimized by the simulation. The generated simulation models generate the parameters as result values of the simulation evaluation algorithms and supply the values in an automated manner to the special data blocks of the generated control programs. | 10-22-2009 |

| 20110022613 | Method and System for Qualifying CAD Objects - A method and a system for automatically qualifying CAD objects in two different CAx systems, wherein the CAD objects each model components of a physical system. In order to automatically qualify CAD objects in the CAx systems, which describe the same system components, with the same data records, a universal mapping rule is initially determined using system components that are qualified with data records in both CAx systems. The mapping rule is then applied to CAD objects that are qualified with a data records only in one CAx system to respectively identify a CAD object in the other CAx system, where the CAD object represents the same system component and is therefore supposed to be qualified with the same data record. | 01-27-2011 |
| 20110040531 | Method and System for Identification of Grouping Characteristics - A method and engineering system by which relationships are automatically identifiable between CAD objects of different CAD models, where use of a transformation rule which maps points of the envelope geometry of a first CAD object of a first CAD model onto points in a second CAD model is used such that the points involved in the transformation rule each relate to the same modeled raw component. The transformation rule is applied to at least two CAD objects of the first CAD model. If the transformed points in the second CAD model are surrounded by a common-envelope geometry, this spatial relationship is interpreted as a grouping relationship. A hierarchical data structure is then formed automatically within the engineering system, taking account of the already recognized grouping relationship, and allowing synchronous data keeping. | 02-17-2011 |
