N2  - The supervision of complex industrial processes, such as in the chemical, nuclear or aerospace industries, is a difficult task. The FORMENTOR methodology allows the development of supervision support systems to aid operators in their tasks, especially when dealing with perturbations and hazardous situations. A FORMENTOR system presents a synthetic plant-wide view of the current situation, diagnoses the underlying causes of perturbations, predicts possible future evolutions and proposes remedial actions. For this the methodology integrates models, techniques and tools from four domains namely artificial intelligence, safety analysis, real-time computing and ergonomics. The methodological approach provides firm control over the development process while meeting the quality and technical requirements of the client; furthermore it ensures the reliability and maintainability of the obtained system.<p />
