Abstract
The paper reports on first experiences with modern web-based technologies used in building the human-machine interfaces for the industrial automation applications. It mainly focuses on distributed and intelligent manufacturing control systems designed according to holonic, multi-agent, or service-oriented principles. We briefly introduce Google Web Toolkit, and HTML5, which are gaining increasing popularity for creating dynamic user interfaces running in a web browser. We present two case studies from the industrial automation domain. The former one is the web application developed in Google Web Toolkit, which displays real-time values of tags of the industrial controller. The latter one aims at visualization of a manufacturing ontology in a web browser using both the canvas and the scalable vector graphics features of a new HTML5 standard.
