MonitoringProcess

  • IRI: https://spec.industrialontologies.org/ontology/construct/MonitoringProcess

Annotations

  • example = โ€œUV absorbance and conductivity monitoring during column loading; continous monitoring of temperature and humidity in a clean room; Tablet weight is measured in-line every 30 minutes during compression using an integrated balance; During a fed-batch cell culture process, at-line nutrient monitoring is performed using a Nova BioProfileยฎ FLEX analyzer to measure glucose, lactate, glutamine, and ammonia levels; Flow rate is continuously monitored during tangential flow filtration to ensure consistent membrane performanceโ€

  • explanatoryNote = โ€œ1)Each monitoring process is an execution of a monitoring plan that prescribes it 2) In case a monitoring process is responsible for monitoring the attribute/parameter/indicator in multiple processes (e.g., multiple unit operations) it is a part of the โ€˜larger processโ€™ which has the โ€˜occurrent partโ€™ the unit operations and it does not imply that it is an occurrent part of the unit operations themselvesโ€.โ€

  • example = โ€œUV absorbance and conductivity monitoring during column loading; continuous monitoring of temperature and humidity in a clean room; tablet weight monitoring every 30 minutes during compression using an automated tablet-testing system; During a fed-batch cell culture process, at-line nutrient monitoring is performed using a Nova BioProfileยฎ FLEX analyzer to measure glucose, lactate, glutamine, and ammonia levels; Flow rate is continuously monitored during tangential flow filtration to ensure consistent membrane performanceโ€

  • explanatoryNote = โ€œ1) Each monitoring process is an execution of a monitoring plan that prescribes it 2) If a monitoring process monitors an attribute, parameter, or indicator across multiple process parts, it should be modeled as part of the larger planned process that has those process parts as occurrent parts. This does not imply that the monitoring process is an occurrent part of each monitored process part individually. For example, a decontamination process may include mixing, heating, and adsorption as process parts. If one temperature monitoring process monitors temperature across the decontamination process, then the monitoring process is an occurrent part of the decontamination process. It is not automatically an occurrent part of each of the mixing, heating, and adsorption processes. If temperature is monitored only during heating, then the monitoring process may be modeled as an occurrent part of the heating process.โ€
