Abstract :
The process control industry has many uses for multimedia, from incorporating diverse imaging sensors to visualizing, monitoring and controlling time-critical processes. A distributed client-server architecture, together with specialized image-processing hardware and a number of commercial products, demonstrates the effectiveness of using multimedia data in a simulated film-coating process
