The main aim of the project, presented in this paper, is to create a system that will give a solution to the variety of situations we can encounter in industrial plants control; to achieve this goal we have given the system different automation, remote control and remote monitoring functionalities. Industrial installations can be composed of several plants; for this reason we offer a solution capable of defining a central office that is in control of all plants, each plant with its own controller. Apart from the problem of geographically disperse locations, it is also of the essence to offer automation for the tasks that take place in the plants. In order to achieve an automation system capable of giving answer to a range of situations, as wide as possible, we have designed an engine so that the user may create its own rule based system, defining himself the rules by means of an interface that abstracts the user from the formal definition of the rules.
