Abstract
Methods and apparatus to reduce memory requirements of software applications in a process control system are disclosed. An example apparatus includes a primary process space to execute a primary application for use in a process control system, a primary user interface associated with the primary application and to be rendered on a display, and a secondary application to be invoked via the primary application. The secondary application includes a client application to enable interaction between the primary application and the secondary application, and a server application that serves the client application to implement at least one software component to generate a secondary user interface associated with the secondary application. The secondary user interface is to be communicated to the primary application to be rendered within the primary user interface.
