Listening to the process data, to
highlight change
Alstom Aerospace announce the release of their latest condition monitoring software product Novus, which addresses the increasing problem of extracting useful information from data
Novus is an 'out of the box' novelty detection package which is entirely data driven and which can be applied to any system or process where data is routinely logged, and where the concept of 'normal' behaviour is meaningful Novus can best be described as an early warning tool, designed to highlight subtle changes in processes which may herald the onset of a more serious problem

RFID software captures entire goods flows
Siemens Automation and Drives has launched new software which allows the integration of RFID (radio frequency identification) systems into business processes
It complements existing DCS systems because it works inside the normal process limits, seeking abnormal behaviour patterns in the measured variables.
Novus is able to rapidly sift through large amounts of data, highlighting only those aspects which are different from anything seen during normal behaviour.
It combines data processing, statistical and pattern matching techniques into an intuitive engineer-friendly environment, where a workflow concept guides the user through the training and testing operations.
A series of powerful analysis screens allow the user to identify the cause of any novelty found.
The software is supplied with a batch version which can be triggered to run automatically on receipt of new data.
Alstom is particularly targeting condition monitoring applications in the process industries where the early detection of anomalies directly translates to financial or safety benefits.
