Content is generated on a host system based on real-time data from a controlled process collected over the internet from a customer's client machine tool control system. The client system may request content from a host website. Instructions associated with the requested content, which may be in the form of an application to be run on the client, is delivered to the client via download over the internet. The client gathers real-time data associated with a controlled process and transmits it to the host, where content based on the data can be generated for the client and/or its owner. Data gathered by the host, and content generated on the basis of the data, may be made accessible to machine tool manufacturers. Also, data received by the host is associated with an identifier defined for each client system. A historical database for given client equipment can thereby be created.

1. A method for serving an operator of a machine tool comprising a control system equipped for communicating over a network with a host system, the method comprising the steps of: receiving an identifying code from the control system;transmitting a set of content options based on the identifying code;receiving a request for content that identifies a content option among the set of content options from the control system;identifying a price for the requested content;delivering, by the host system, the requested content, the requested content comprising a list of data items to be captured, at least one trace event that defines when a trace for data associated with a data item of the list of data items is invoked, and at least one trigger event that defines when the trace for the data is terminated; andcharging the operator of the machine tool the identified price. 2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the identifying code identifies a customer that operates the machine tool, and the price is identified on the basis of the customer. 3. The method according to claim 2, further comprising the step of receiving from the control system a machine identifying code for the machine tool. 4. The method according to claim 1, wherein the control system comprises a real-time controller, the method further comprising the step, following delivering the requested content, of receiving data captured from the machine tool. 5. The method according to claim 1, further comprising the steps of receiving and processing data collected by the control system during a machine tool process directed according to the requested content and the at least one trace and trigger events; andcreating a database entry including the received and processed data collected by the control system during the machine tool process. 6. The method according to claim 4, wherein the real-time controller comprises a numerical control kernel. 7. The method according to claim 5, further comprising the step of associating the database entry with the identifying code. 8. The method according to claim 7, further comprising the step of receiving from the customer authorization for third party access to the database. 9. The method according to claim 7, further comprising the steps of charging a fee for access to the database, the fee including a first recurring charge associated with a cycle of time and a second charge associated with delivery of the requested content and processing received data; andproviding access to data derived from the database entry in response to payment of the fee. 10. The method according to claim 9, further comprising the step of providing access to a third party original equipment manufacturer. 11. The method according to claim 10, wherein the third party accessing the data is an original equipment manufacturer that supplied the machine tool. 12. The method according to claim 5, further comprising the step of associating the database entry with a date the data was received. 13. The method according to claim 1, wherein the content comprises software. 14. The method according to claim 13, wherein the software comprises CNC program source code. 15. A system for serving an operator of a tool, the system comprising: a machine tool comprising a control system, the control system being configured to transmit an identifying code and receive a set of content options based on the identifying code,transmit a request for content that identifies a content option among the set of content options,receive content associated with the request for content, the content including a list of data items to be captured, at least one trace event that defines when a trace for data associated with a data item of the list of data items is to be invoked, and at least one trigger event that defines when the trace for the data is to be terminated,perform a machine tool process directed according to the received content, andtransmit data collected during the machine tool process; anda host configured to receive the identifying code and transmit the set of content options based on the identifying code,receive the request for content and identify a price for the content associated with the request,transmit the content associated with the request,receive and process the data collected by the control system during the machine tool process, andcharge an operator of the machine tool the identified price. 16. The system according to claim 15, wherein the identifying code identifies a customer that operates the machine tool, and the price is identified on the basis of the customer. 17. The system according to claim 15, wherein the machine tool is further configured to transmit a machine identifying code for the machine tool.
