This paper presents a new application software for control conguration selection of interconnected industrial processes,called ProMoVis. Moreover, ProMoVis is able to visualize process models and process layout at the physical leveltogether with the control system dynamics. The software consists of a builder part where the visual representationof the interconnected process is created and an analyzer part where the process is analyzed using dierent controlconguration selection tools.The conceptual idea of the software is presented and the subsequent design and implementation of ProMoVis isdiscussed. The implemented analysis methods are briey described including their usage and implementation aspects.The use of ProMoVis is demonstrated by an application study on the stock preparation process at SCA Obbola AB,Sweden. The results of this study are compared with the currently used control strategy.The study indicates that ProMoVis introduces a systematic and comprehensive way to perform control congurationselection. ProMoVis has been released under the Apache Open Source license.
