Abstract: The present invention relates to a system and methodology facilitating automated
audit recording and tracking of PLC-based interactions. A recording component is
provided that interacts with an application that can change or alter one or more
characteristics of PLC operations. The recording component can be client-based on the
same or associated platform as the application or can be embedded within a control
system component. When interactions have been recorded, a tracking component
aggregates such interactions in a file or record stored in a local or remote database,
wherein audit reports that document control interactions or changes can automatically be
generated from such files. Recorded interactions can be stored in a substantially real time
manner and include records of all interactions with a control system as opposed to merely
saving a final program or resultant image of such interactions, thus facilitating a more
controlled and secure auditing environment.

Abstract: A method for determine blurring in a test video sequence due to video
processing includes detecting blocks within each frame of the test video
sequence that have valid image edges. An edge point within each valid
image edge block is selected and a series of points defining an edge profile in
the block along a line normal to the valid image edge at each edge point is
defined from an enhanced edge map in which video processing blockiness
artifacts have been removed. From the edge profile a blurring value is
estimated for each frame or group of frames within the test video sequence.
Additionally a reference blurring value may be derived from a reference video
sequence corresponding to the test video sequence, which reference blurring
value may be generated at a source of the reference video sequence and
transmitted with the test video sequence to a receiver or may be generated at
the receiver. The reference blurring value is then compared with the blurring
value from the test video sequence to produce a relative blurring value for the
test video sequence.
