Intelligence-Based Systems Processes (IBSP)

Applies standard Embedded Intelligence (EI) Pattern that appears in all intelligent systems of any kind:

• Universally applicable logical roles for intelligent products, processes
• System Management Functional Areas (SMFA) standard patterns
• Unifying framework for diverse Systems of Access (sensors, data communication networks, signals, actuators, documents, human interfaces to products, tools, controllers, other people)
• Roots in Norbert Wiener's Cybernetics: Control and Communication in the Animal and the Machine

Enables improved engineering of reusable controls, data links, integration of computer-based engineering tools and company information systems, human management processes

Applies to operators, maintainers, controllers, software, service personnel, engineers, managers, information systems

Hierarchical intelligence: Local loops, lines, facilities, sites, enterprises
