Abstract
AVEVA, AmsterCHEM and Shell share some findings on interoperability achieved through CAPE-OPEN, between no less than 5 distinct pieces of software. After describing the process engineering context, performance comparisons are made to assess overhead attributed to CAPE-OPEN to COM middleware, to COBIA middleware and to marshaling between threads. All scenarios are based on an industrial case of the Shell process proprietary modeling framework.
