is an OpreX Asset Operations
and Optimization solution
that improves plant systems
interoperability and security
through support of the Open Platform Communications
Unified Architecture (OPC UA) communication standard.
Released in June, the platform was developed by this
company and Shell. It is a software suite that brings together
Shell's advanced plant process control technology
and this company's real-time control technology to help
users improve productivity by increasing product yield
and reducing energy consumption. This version upgrade
supports OPC UA, the latest version of a communication
standard that improves plant systems interoperability and
security, and provides the basis for digital transformation
to help customers transition to industrial autonomy. OPC
UA is recognized as a communication standard for Industry
4.0, benefitting from high security and scalability without
hardware or OS dependence. The new version also
includes a new BLC model that employs proportional integral
differential (PID) control logic. - Yokogawa Electric

cal, pharmaceutical or oil-and-gas company. Both Seeq
editions, which run best as software as service (SaaS) on
Amazon Web Service (AWS) or Microsoft Azure, represent
the culmination of learning and experiences with hundreds
of Seeq deployments in process manufacturing organizations.
For these manufacturers, Seeq enables advanced
analytics insights to improve production and business
outcomes across their organizations. Seeq Cortex, a renaming
of Seeq Server, is included in both editions and is
the execution engine that delivers key features, including
multi-source and type data connectivity, security, calculation
scalability and other features. Seeq Cortex ensures immediate
and long-term support for user data architectures
and IT requirements. - Seeq Corp., Seattle, Wash.
