| Abstract | The design of the basic control of a chemical plant is mainly based on the P&IDs (pipe & instrumentation diagrams) of the plant. These diagrams, which are complemented by further documents, contain the information which is needed to specify the sensors, actuators, and the binary and continuous control functions in between to run the plant at steady state and to ensure its safe operation. In the past, P&IDs have been available for control engineers only in the form of paper drawings, which required tedious manual analysis before the control specification and implementation could start. Today's computer-aided engineering tools, as used by the process and plant design engineers, provide P&IDs in electronic format, but the control engineering workflow has not changed. However, the CAE tools' underlying database provides the basis for a computer-aided and more efficient control engineering process: the contents of the database can be parsed by computer algorithms which search for well-known patterns, e.g. certain combinations of plant objects (tanks, pipes, sensors, and actuators), and which assign well-known control solutions to each pattern found in the particular plant. Thus, repetitive, tedious, and error-prone engineering tasks can be automated. This paper describes an approach how this can be achieved, based on a standardized plant description model called CAEX and on rule-based algorithms. The concept is described taking the specification and implementation of interlocks as an example. Interlocks are pieces of control code that ensure the safety of a plant. Faulty or "forgotten" interlocks may have a severe impact on the integrity of the plant and the process running therein, thus their development requires significant engineering and test effort. Since CAEX contains all necessary plant details to find and implement a certain set of interlocks automatically, an algorithm parses the CAEX file and generates a table of causes (process events, detected by sensor signals) and effects (process actions, executed by actuators), which can be automatically converted into control code. The automatically-generated C&E table can also support HAZOP studies. The authors have designed and developed a knowledge-based system which implements these above mentioned functions |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
