Speeding new process developments
Article Abstract:
Developers of mathematical and statistic software have added Hyper Text Markup Language outout capabilities to their products to meet the increasing demand among users who want to publish documens throgh corporate intranets or Internets. However, another standard called Mathematical Markup Language (MathML) has been introduced for describing mathematical expressions. Among the new products that use MathML are Waterloo Maple Inc's Maple V, Wolfram's Mathematica 4 and Design Science's MathType 4.

Linux woos industrial users
Article Abstract:
Several projects are currently being undertaken that aims to bring Linux into the industrial arena. For instance, the FREEdraft project is developing a Linus-based two-dimensional computer-aided design system while control.com is designing programmbale logic controllers with Linux as the operating system. On the other hand, the Linux Lab project is using Linux to create a series of data acquisition and process-control software.

Make your plant the model of efficiency
Article Abstract:
Advanced control systems and simulation packages used in automating chemical plants have been upgraded by their developers. For instance, MDC Technlogy released the latest version of its realtime optimization software, the RTO+ 2.4, with improved data gathering functionality via a data exchange server. Simulation Sciences has also launched an updated version of its Rigorous Online Modeling and equation-based optimization software. The new version has 55 new features and enhancements including increased speed, improved usability and functionality.
