MODULAR OBJECT DYNAMIC HOSTING
First Claim
1. A system capable of implementation upon an industrial control environment or industrial information environment, comprising:
- a resource management component that determines what resources are needed for an object to operate according to a manner; and
an organizational component that pairs the object with a host in an attempt to meet the resource need.

Abstract
An object can be used in an industrial control configuration in relation to performing a function or task. Matching can occur such that an object with operational requirements can bind with a host that has capabilities that meet those operational requirements—matching can occur automatically as well as through user operation. Once matched, different functionality can be presented to a user pertaining to the object. To assist the user, the object can include external references, logic, local or private data, as well as others in addition to resources. To facilitate operation, capabilities and resources can be published in a directory that can be accessed by different entities—sometimes with security constraints in order to protect configuration integrity. Likewise, a subscription system can be employed such that when a change to a related entity is made, a notice can transfer to related entities and operation can alter based upon the change.

20. A system capable of implementation upon an industrial control environment or industrial information environment, comprising:
-
means for evaluating a scheduling and execution component to determine a number of objects in relation to that component; means for analyzing a host to determine how many objects can be held by the host; and means for determining if the host can hold, schedule, or execute the objects based upon a result of the evaluation and a result of the analysis. - View Dependent Claims (21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26)
