Visual Explorer 2.5 (CVE 2.5) is the fifth release of this firm’s Geometric Process Control (GPC) software this decade. GPC technology mathematically unites, for the first time, the three key plant applications of process control, alarm management and quality control to achieve business objectives. The program allows users to view hundreds of process variables and their alarm limits in a single graph. CVE 2.5 includes new features in alarm management, process stewardship and production reporting, continuous process control, process analysis and trouble shooting, and spectral analyzer support for process analytical technology (PAT). One of the highlights of CVE 2.5 is its batch process analysis and control feature, which enables the analysis of multi-stage and multi-phase process data without the need to do any calculations or data manipulations. — Curvaceous Software Ltd., Gerrards Cross, U.K.
