A technical plant, a system for issuing publicly trusted certificates for plant components of the technical plant, an engineering or control system for the technical plant, and a method for issuing publicly trusted certificates for plant components of the technical plant, wherein a) a certification module of a plant component, which is intended to receive a publicly trusted certificate, queries a component identifier; b) the certification module transmits the component identifier together with a certificate request for a publicly trusted certificate to a registration authority; c) the registration authority checks, based on the component identifier, whether the component belonging to the component identifier is assigned to an authorized person or an authorized company; d) if so, the registration authority requests a publicly trusted certificate for the component; and e) the requested publicly trusted certificate is issued and transmitted to the certification module.

Engineering control system, technical installation and method and system for awarding publicly trusted certificates

A method for operating at least a container application and a component application. The container is an application hosting the component application. The method includes the following: providing a library of code files, a bootloader and further executable code files, wherein the component creates a probing message to the container application, and the container creates a response message containing references to code files to be loaded by the component.

Method for reciprocally integrating applications, in particular web applications

Device, computer program product and method for checking properties of resources, wherein a checking device for checking properties of resources of a web server includes a calculation unit for calculating an identifier identifying a particular resource using the particular resource, a detection unit for detecting a license requirement for the particular resource using the calculated identifier, and a determination unit for determining an existing license for the web server in the case of a license requirement detected for the particular resource using the calculated identifier, such that unauthorized posting of a particular resource to a web server can be easily detected and prevented.

The invention relates to a method functions within an industrial automation system. In a method for providing functions within an industrial automation system, the functions are made available by a web application of at least one control unit and provided on the client side during execution of a control program via a Single-Page Application (SPA) as a web client at a client-side user interface. The functions are provided by a standardized data model of the web application which represents the at least one control unit and data that can be made available by the control unit. The standardized data model is accessed via a generic data interface of the web application.

Method for providing functions within an industrial automation system, and an automation system

A method and a system for authenticating a surrounding Web application by a Web application that is to be embedded, wherein it becomes possible for the Web application that is to be embedded to identify the surrounding Web application and for the surrounding Web application to authenticate itself, where a high security standard is provided through storage and evaluation of the necessary key material in the respective. Web server because the key material itself is not transmitted, but only authentication messages for the local use of the key material are instead transmitted.

Method of providing functions within an industrial automation system and an industrial automation system thereof. Functions of the automation system are made available by web applications that are combined by the client during control program execution to form interlinked web applications. The functions are provided on a user interface of the client. The web applications are provided by a standard application programming interface that comprises a cross-component application programming interface for initializing and unloading application components and a component-specific application programming interface for event handling and providing component functions. Component instances are linked by an application programming interface for stipulating interactions between application components.

Environmental sound is captured and mapped. Application of a large number of mobile communication terminals embodied as a data supplier leads to extensive, automatic and continual mapping of environmental sound. For sites that are visited relatively frequently and by a plurality of subscribers, a relatively large quantity of remotely transmitted data records for the environmental sound is obtained informally, which permits a more precise depiction of the environmental noise. Commercially available mobile communication terminals may be augmented using simple measures in order to communicate with a central or local mapping system or mapping service directly or indirectly.

In a method and operating element for establishing an angle of view for an observer with respect to a two or three-dimensional object, which is displayed on an output device, the establishment of the angle of view takes place by control on a simple circular disc. A point on the disc is converted to a position on a virtual sphere. The respective angle of view with respect to the object is established by the axis, determined by the calculated position on the virtual sphere and the sphere center.
