Temporary expanding integrated monitoring network
First Claim
1. A system for monitoring an industrial process, the system comprising a computer program product, the product comprising;
- a code directed to accessing a process controller;
a code directed to an input module coupled to code directed to the process controller, the input module code being adapted to input a plurality of parameters from a process for manufacture of a substance;
a code directed to a computer aided process module coupled to the process controller, the computer aided process module code being adapted to compare at least two of the plurality of parameters against a predetermined training set of parameters, and being adapted to determine if the at least two of the plurality of parameters are within a predetermined range of the training set of parameters; and
a code directed to an output module coupled to the process controller, the output module being adapted to output a result based upon the determining step.

Abstract
A system for monitoring an industrial process and taking action based on the results of process monitoring. Actions taken may include process control, paging, voicemail, and input for e-enterprise systems. The system includes an input module for receiving a plurality of parameters from a process for manufacture of a substance or object. The system also includes a library module. The library module includes a plurality of computer aided processes. Any one of the computer aided processes is capable of using each of the plurality of parameters to compare at least two of the plurality of parameters against a training set of parameters. The training set of parameters is generally predetermined. The computer aided process is also capable of determining if the at least two of the plurality of parameters are within a predetermined range of the training set of parameters. Additionally, the system includes an output module for outputting a result based upon the training set and the plurality of parameters.
