Abstract :
Digital computer systems can provide an efficient means of accessing, correlating, and displaying plant information to the operator. The careful application of human engineering techniques is required to effectively utilize this information. A total systems approach which includes the implementation of redundant sub-systems is necessary to maintain high reliability and availability. This paper describes the design of such a system.
