Abstract
Systems and methods for field device interaction monitoring may include an analysis compute device having circuitry configured to obtain user interaction data produced by one or more field devices used in an industrial process of an industrial plant. The user interaction data may be indicative of interactions made by one or more users through a human machine interface of a corresponding field device. The circuitry may be additionally configured to analyze the user interaction data to determine a responsive action to increase an efficiency of the industrial process at the industrial plant and perform the responsive action.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- an analysis compute device having circuitry configured to:
- obtain user interaction data produced by one or more field devices used in an industrial process of an industrial plant, wherein the user interaction data is indicative of interactions made by one or more users through a human machine interface of a corresponding field device;
- analyze the user interaction data to determine a responsive action to increase an efficiency of the industrial process at the industrial plant;
- and
- perform the responsive action.
A method comprising:
- obtaining, by an analysis compute device, user interaction data produced by one or more field devices used in an industrial process of an industrial plant, wherein the user interaction data is indicative of interactions made by one or more users through a human machine interface of a corresponding field device;
- analyzing, by the analysis compute device, the user interaction data to determine a responsive action to increase an efficiency of the industrial process at the industrial plant;
- and
- performing, by the analysis compute device, the responsive action.
One or more machine-readable storage media comprising a plurality of instructions stored thereon that, in response to being executed, cause a compute device to:
- obtain user interaction data produced by one or more field devices used in an industrial process of an industrial plant, wherein the user interaction data is indicative of interactions made by one or more users through a human machine interface of a corresponding field device;
- analyze the user interaction data to determine a responsive action to increase an efficiency of the industrial process at the industrial plant;
- and
- perform the responsive action.
