Frequently Asked Questions

Home > Frequently Asked Questions
You may find hereafter questions that were raised now and then and answers provided by CO-LaN to these questions. Feel free to ask more questions to the webmaster.

  • How will organizations find the resources to migrate to CO compliance and still meet their original goals of delivering the capability of the Software Components? And, what will prevent organizations that are good at wrapping for CO compliance (but not so good at modeling) from dominating the market?
  • What is the role for universities and research institutes in the CO marketplace?
  • Won’t having to pay for the use of many components be a nightmare?
  • What is the incentive for different companies to share models?
  • How does CO address which criteria to choose for process optimization?
  • Who is providing CO-compliant environments and/or components?
  • What is the relationship between CO and Open-Spirit?
  • What is the relationship between CO and OPC?
  • What is the relationship between CO and STEP?
  • What is IMS?
  • How will CO compliant Software Components be distributed?
  • How much effort will be required to make a Software Component CO compliant?
  • How users know which Software Components are CO compliant?
  • How is the CO-LaN funded?
  • What is the CO-LaN?

Consultancy Services: how does it work?

The purpose of the Consultancy Services scheme is to provide assistance, in the form of access to a specialist consultant and funding, in the new implementation of CAPE-OPEN interfaces or the improvement of existing interface implementations. Look out for the next round of service requests and apply.

Dynamic simulation and numerical analysis tool

The simulation environment Diana (Dynamic simulation and numerical analysis tool) performs the numerical analysis of problems such as the ones usually found in process engineering.

One of the main aspects of Diana is that it relies on the CAPE-OPEN Numerical interfaces. The models handled by the solvers within the numerical kernel of Diana, or plugged in Diana, are object-oriented models based on the CAPE-OPEN Equation Set Object (ESO) concept.
