High Performance Online Key Performance Indicator's Calculations in Oil Refineries

Abstract

It is critical in Oil Refineries to monitor the process online by several departments with respect to various perspectives. Key performance indicators generated by conversion of sensor - based measurements into meaningful data fulfill this requirement. However, the performance indicators must be provided to the users online. In this article, we discuss code optimization and parallelization of key performance indicator's calculation. By using these methods we obtained %696 improvement against the initial algorithm and %55 improvement against the optimal sequential algorithm in the performance of the system.
