- Adaptive production management using a service-based platformPublication . Wajid, Usman; Chepegin, Vadim; Meridou, Despina T.; Papadopoulou, Maria-Eleftheria Ch.; Barbosa, JoséThis paper presents a platform for adaptive production manage-ment developed in the ARUM1 (Adaptive pRodUct Management, http://arum-project.eu/) project. The design of ARUM platform started with applying a tra-ditional enterprise Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) paradigm to solving an integration problem for the production ramp-up of highly customized products such as aircrafts, ships, etc. The production of such articles is exceptionally challenging for planning and control, especially in small lot sizes. Often re-quests for changes at any stage of the production, immature products and pro-cesses bring serious additional risks for the producers and customers. To coun-ter such issues requires new strategies, the core elements of most of them in-clude early detection of unexpected situations followed by rapid mitigation ac-tions. Furthermore, human beings cannot cope any longer with processing a massive volume of data that comes with a high velocity from various sources that is a requirement for any modern production shop floor. The traditional IT solutions also fall short when trying to satisfy all those requirements and this motivates the need for ARUM platform to help humans in making effective decisions.
- Standardization in cyber-physical systems: the ARUM casePublication . Leitão, Paulo; Barbosa, José; Papadopoulou, Maria-Eleftheria Ch.; Venieris, Iakovos S.Cyber-physical systems concept supports the realization of the Industrie 4.0 vision towards the computerization of traditional industries, aiming to achieve intelligent and reconfigurable factories. Standardization assumes a critical role in the industrial adoption of cyber-physical systems, namely in the integration of legacy systems as well as the smooth migration from existing running systems to the new ones. This paper analyses some existing standards in related fields and presents identified limitations and efforts for a wider acceptance of such systems by industry. A special attention is devoted to the efforts to develop a standard-compliant service-oriented multi-agent system solution within the ARUM project.
