Fuente: Wipo "Sensorization" Methods and systems for data collection in chemical or pharmaceutical processes with future status prediction and load balancing are disclosed. A monitoring system for data collection can include a data acquisition circuit to interpret a plurality of detection values, each of the plurality of detection values corresponding to input received from an input sensor operatively coupled to a component or a subprocess of the chemical or pharmaceutical process, a data analysis circuit to analyze a subset of the plurality of detection values to determine a future status of a component or subprocess process, wherein the future status includes at least one of: a future state, a future condition, or a future stage, and an analysis response circuit to perform an action in response to the determination of the future status, wherein the action includes rebalancing a process load.
