An engineering system includes a cloud. The cloud includes an engineering tool and a virtual device. The engineering tool is configured to create and debug software for operating a control device that controls a field device installed in a plant. The virtual device is configured to simulate an operation state of the control device in accordance with the software and with simulated input or input to the control device. The engineering tool debugs the software based on an operation result of the virtual device and on output from the control device or the simulated input.

Engineering system and engineering method that use cloud environment

A data collection device includes a data collector configured to collect data from a device that outputs data, a time stamp adder configured to add a time stamp to the data collected by the data collector, a data storage configured to store the data to which the time stamp is added by the time stamp adder, a timing generator configured to generate a timing at which the data stored in the data storage is transmitted to a data server communicably connected via a first network, a request information acquirer configured to acquire request information for requesting transmission of the data, the request information being transmitted from the data server, and a data transmitter configured to transmit the data stored in the data storage to the data server based on the timing generated by the timing generator and in accordance with the request information acquired by the request information acquirer.

Data collection device, data collection system, data server, data collection method, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium

A flow computing apparatus includes: a first computation controller; a second computation controller; and an access controller, wherein the first computation controller: computes a flow rate of a fluid from sensor data indicating a state of the fluid; and generates transaction information indicating the flow rate of the fluid, the second computation controller computes a management index related to supply of the fluid based on at least a part of the sensor data or index values computed during the computation of the flow rate of the fluid by the first computation controller, and the access controller restricts at least a change in a function of the first computation controller.
