A non-transitory computer-readable medium may include computer-executable instructions that, when executed, cause a processor to collect a portion of data associated with an asset from one or more sources based on a request received from a digital representation associated with the asset. The digital representation may perform a first set of simulations related to one or more operations of the asset over time. The processor may then generate a plurality of aligned datasets based the portion of the data, the one or more sources, and an identity of the asset. The processor may also aggregate the plurality of aligned datasets into a single dataset and transmit the single dataset to the digital representation to perform a second set of simulations based on the single dataset.

Systems and methods for industrial information solutions and connected microservices

A method for managing device lifecycles within an industrial automation environment. The method includes receiving a scanning configuration and a request for lifecycle management data through a user interface, and based on the scanning configuration, scanning a plurality of industrial devices within the industrial automation environment to produce configuration data for the industrial automation environment. The method also includes transferring the configuration data and the request for lifecycle management data to a product compatibility and download center through a communication interface, receiving lifecycle management data from the product compatibility and download center through the communication interface, and displaying the lifecycle management data to a user through the user interface.

Lifecycle management of industrial automation devices

A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors of a first electronic device to receive data generated by a plurality of components of an industrial automation system and characterize one or more portions of the data by applying metadata to the one or more portions of the data. The metadata enables a second electronic device receiving the data to determine one or more contexts of the one or more portions of the data. Furthermore, the computer-executable instructions, when executed, cause the one or more processors to rearrange an order of the one or more portions of the data and cause the characterized and rearranged data to be sent to the second electronic device.

Common data pipeline for sharing data associated with industrial automation systems

A non-transitory computer-readable medium includes instructions that, when executed, cause one or more processors to perform operations. The operations include receiving a first request to access a digital representation that is assigned to an asset of an industrial automation system and includes code specific to operating, maintaining, or diagnosing the asset. The operations also include verifying a security access for the first request, providing the computing device access to the digital representation, receiving an input to modify the code from the computing device and, performing one or more simulations based on the modified code by utilizing the digital representation. Additionally, the operations include sending one or more simulation results to the computing device, receiving, from the computing device, a second request for pushing the modified code to the asset, and in response to receiving the second request, causing the modified code to be sent to the asset.

Systems and methods for data lifecycle management with code content optimization and servicing

A system may be provided in which an industrial control network may be discovered and characterized such that useful networking data may be presented to a user and/or monitored for events. By configuring an interrogator device to send a 'generic' message to ranges of network locations, presences of devices at particular locations may be determined. The generic message may direct any of numerous devices types to provide a response including multiple parameters. The interrogator may store such parameters in 'data records,' and may advantageously send periodic collections of data records, or &#x201c;data sets,&#x201d; to a processing manager. The processing manager, in turn, may communicate with one or more data structures to format, enrich and/or monitor the networking data to more conveniently and reliably capture and maintain networks and connected devices.
