    Abstract: Unique systems, methods, techniques and apparatuses of an alarm management system are disclosed herein. One exemplary embodiment is a method for monitoring an industrial plant comprising determining a sequence of alarm events for each of a plurality of time intervals including a first alarm event of a plurality of alarm events and a second alarm event of the plurality of alarm events; determining a count of the first alarm events and second alarm events; determining the alarm events exceed a support threshold value; determining a third count of a sub-sequence of the sequences of alarm events including the first alarm event followed by the second alarm event in response to determining the first count and the second count exceeds the support threshold value; determining a ratio using the first count, the second count, and the third count exceeds a display threshold value; and displaying the sub-sequence.

    Abstract: A technology for delivering an audible notification from a process control system in a control room environment, where the delivery is made by one or more first speakers having a first coverage for audible notifications and one or more second speakers having a second coverage for audible notifications. A determination if the location of an operator is covered by the first coverage is made. The audible notification is delivered by the one or more first speakers if it is determined that the location of the operator is covered by the first coverage. The audible notification is delivered by the one or more second speakers if it is determined that the location of the operator is not covered by the first coverage.

    Abstract: A method of controlling a visual operator interface having a plurality of predefined areas, which include one or more monitoring areas configured to display visual elements representing a current state of a technical system. According to the method, it is determined that one of the monitoring areas is to be prioritized; and an incomplete visibility decrease in at least one other area of the visual operator interface is initiated, wherein the prioritized monitoring area is unaffected by the visibility decrease.
