Abstract

The article considers the fundamentals of a unified technology for automated training of process plant operators (using handling machines as an example) on computer training complexes (CTC). Using model representations in the graphical notation of UML diagrams, the structure and functioning process of the automated training system (ATS) of the CTC are formally described, invariant to various types and complexity of the software and hardware implementation of the CTC. An algorithm for integrally assessing the quality of exercise performance in the CTC is developed. The created prototype of a static simulator in the form of an application with a web interface for monitoring the knowledge and skills of operators in the maintenance of handling machines is described. Interactive interaction of the operator with the CTC software application is provided: interfaces for performing, evaluating exercises, and generating advisory actions to the trainee about the mistakes made are demonstrated. The results of the study can be adapted for the development of the CTC for various technological installations and production processes, including in the mining industry.

Keywords

Technological installations, handling machines, computer training complex, automated operator training, unified modeling language (UML).
