ABSTRACT:
The process control display program receives input in the form of an alphanumeric process control statement. The alphanumeric statement is parsed into its constituent lexical units and graphical icons corresponding to those lexical units are arranged on the display screen in an interconnected network or pattern which corresponds to the syntactic relationship of the lexical units which make up the statement being displayed. The change or flow of live data is depicted by changing the visual quality or color of the icons and their interconnecting network to provide a graphical representation of the alphanumeric statement which is readily understood by users worldwide.
