Resumen:
A new tasks taxonomy for knowledge-based global supervision (GS) of continuous industrial processes is introduced in this work. Possible required tasks
are specified together with the analysis of their dimensions, which
should be useful in the selection of the final capabilities of supervision. Moreover, these dimensions would help end-users and designers when comparing different systems. Several methodologies based on concepts such as generic task, generic operation or heuristic classification have been proposed to transform knowledge-based system (KBS) development in a systematic knowledge
engineering activity. These approaches have been quite successful in
domains such as medicine or mineral prospecting, identifying a large
number of tasks that experts in the domain articulate to solve the problem. However, this was not the case in the process control area. The selection of tasks
and their capabilities is the first step to be taken, even before
choosing a KBS analysis and design methodology. Authors found a lack of
facilities to do this selection in the aforementioned approaches when
they tried to develop a global supervision
tool in a beet sugar factory in Spain. Hence, this article describes an
attempt to fill this gap. Moreover, it shows how this taxonomy
supported the analysis and design stages of a supervision tool in the mentioned industrial application.
