	"Inferno called to the bar"

	British Steel has developed a new computer-based system which allows 
	a furnaceman to "see inside" furnaces used to reheat billets for 
	rerolling into high-quality bar.

	Provisionally named Inferno, the system is a significant advance on 
	previous monitoring and control methods, as it provides an on-line 
	method of predicting reheating performance and regulates furnace 
	conditions to achieve the desired results. The predictive 
	information includes real-time furnace conditions and a model based 
	on historical data.

So that's what it's all about.
