The design and reorganization of Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) faces challenges due to the growing number of interconnected devices. To effectively handle disruptions and improve performance, rapid CPS design and development is crucial. The Task Resources Estimator and Allocation Optimizer (TREAO) addresses these challenges, by simulating and optimizing the tasks assignment to the CPS machines, recommending sui...
Manufacturing companies are seeking forms of maximizing profits, where reduction of maintenance costs plays a critical part. Avoiding unexpected breakdowns while maintaining productivity is possible through continuously monitoring machine performance, predicting when and where a failure will occur. This allows not only to reduce downtime but also to apply the best maintenance strategy and assure production targ...
Recently, the concept of Human-centered automation is adopted in Human-Robot Collaboration (HRC) scenarios, where interactive manufacturing systems are designed to emphasize human activities, by relating them with Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS). This research is focused on self-adaptation of industrial manipulators to the operator's physiological characteristics, which involve the correlation of diffe...
Component Based Software Engineering is a tradi-tional methodology that has signicant advantages: reductionof production cost, code reuse, code portability, fast time tomarket, systematic approach to system construction and guidedsystem design by formalization and domain specic modellinglanguages. This methodology is used in frameworks for enterprisesystems, user interfaces, Web applications, embedded systemsfo...
The latest advances in industry have been accomplished within the 4th Industrial Revolution, mostly noted as Industrie 4.0. This industrial revolution is boosted by the application of Internet of Things (IoT) technologies into the industrial contexts, also known as Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), which is being supported by the implementation of Cyber-Physical Production Systems (CPPS). In this context, m...
In this paper we show how Component Based Software Engineering (CBSE) concepts were applied to design the Sensor SelComp. Therefore, a component framework to address the abstraction of Component Level within the SelSus European Project ICPS. We show how the framework can be used to tackle IPCS virtualization of sensors, machines and data processing. Moreover, we show the applicability of Sensor SelComp to a rea...
Industrial Internet of Thing's will pave the way for Smart Manufacturing initiatives. Intelligence will be notices even in fine grained devices, resulting in complex but at the same time highly efficient manufacturing systems. The typical field worker job will be replaced by machines and human intervention will be shifted to supervision jobs. This work presents Sensor SelComp, a Smart Component which will act i...
