ABSTRACT:
A system is first established by connecting apparatus which implements system operations to a digital computer system using an interface system. Machine readable definitions of the system operating configuration are then prepared and fed into the computer system. Included among these definitions are definitions which define designators or names for a number of the system logical variables. These definitions may also include alarm information pertaining to the variables to which they relate and a message which is to be printed out when the related variable enters an alarm state. As each of these definitions is fed into the system, alarm checking of the related variable is immediately commenced. In addition, any system job definition fed into the system at a later time may refer to the variable by designator only, and linkages to the variable are automatically established. A logic director or sequencer may be established by feeding in definitions of jobs which are to be carried out when certain variables enter particular states. Each of these job definitions may refer to one or more variables as triggers. Means within the computer system automatically link each such job definition to the trigger variables in such a manner that when any of the trigger variables changes its state, execution of the defined job immediately commences. The definitions of individual variables and the trigger linkages between variables and executable job definitions may be altered at any time with the same ease that the variable and job definitions are initially fed into the system. All linkage tables within the system are completely rearranged following such an alteration so that no scars remain and so that the maximum amount of space is available within each table for the acceptance of additional linkages.
