Methods and apparatus for system and device design and control
First Claim
1. A method for system design and control of a plant using a web-based system including a server and at least one device connected to the server via a network, said method comprising the steps of:
- receiving application data from a user via the device;
integrating the received data into a database;
utilizing the integrated data to monitor plant activities;
collecting monitored plant activity data; and
displaying the collected data through a web interface to a person, wherein said displaying the collected data includes providing notices when at least one of a failure of an equipment used within the plant and a maintenance of the equipment is identified.

Abstract
A system includes a database stored on a server utilized for collecting information throughout a plant and/or component design process, and usable in operation and maintenance of the plant and components. The system provides access to engineering data for all parties simultaneously, even if team members are in different parts of the world and allows changes and/or corrections to engineering documents through remote access. The system also is robust enough to handle large volumes of documents and users and facilitates startup and operation of the plant and components.
