Abstract: A method of generating control code for an industrial plant comprises: defining control logic for controlling the industrial plant by editing a cause-and-effect matrix provided by an engineering tool, wherein the defining comprises defining both instrument-based control logic and service-based control logic using the same cause-and-effect matrix; and generating the control code for controlling the industrial plant on the basis of the defined control logic.

Abstract: A method for custom logic engineering in an industrial modular plant executing a production process includes receiving process data for the production process using at least one physical process module; determining a custom process topology by selecting, based on the received process data, at least one module type package, MTP; correlating to the at least one respective physical process module from a database, wherein the module type package is a digital representation of the respective physical process module; selecting at least one extender unit from the database based on the received process data; representing a logical function of the production process; determining connections between the extender unit(s) and the at least one MTP; setting properties of the extender unit(s) based on the received process data; and determining an extended control scheme for controlling dynamic behavior of the production process using the determined custom process topology.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a construction plan for a modular plant that is to execute a given industrial process includes: providing a flow chart of the industrial process, the flow chart including a sequence of actions, each action having at least one input for an educt to be processed by the action and at least one output for a product produced by the action, at least one product of one action being an educt for another action; providing at least one catalogue of module descriptions, each module description characterizing at least the educt inputs and the product outputs of at least one physical process module, and physical actions performed within the physical process module; and decomposing the flow chart into functional units with at least one educt input, at least one product output, and one or more actions leading from the one or more educts.
