Abstract (English): The objective of this paper is to present firstly the issues involved in the upgrading process of industrial systems and secondly the difficulty of the transition into an automated system. Two interesting methods of analysis have been applied on an example of a grain silo process: SADT (Structured Analysis and Design Technique) and OOPP (Objective Oriented Project Planning). These methods can be applied on a systemic analysis of industrial processes. The paper briefly discusses the design of automated systems and shows some advantages of the application of systemic analysis on the upgrading of industrial systems. Afterwards, the basic principles of the two methods applied on the grain silo are presented. Finally, the different results obtained from the two methods are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
