Industry 4.0 revolution concerns the digital transformation of manufacturing and promises to answer the ever-increasing demand of product customisation and manufacturing flexibility while incurring low costs. To perform the required factory reconfiguration, a computationally demanding optimisation process has to be executed to find favourable solutions in a relatively short time. While previous research focused on planning and scheduling of smart factories based on cloud-based optimisation, little attention has been paid to effective approaches to describe the targeted factory, the required products and the production processes. However, these matters are fundamental for the optimisation engine to be correctly and efficiently performed. This paper presents an XML-based factory modelling language to effectively describe the above data for a given factory and commodity order and to provide a convenient interface for altering the input information. Finally, two real-world manufacturing plants are provided to illustrate the feasibility of the proposed description language.
Industry 4.0, or Digital Manufacturing, is a vision of inter-connected services to facilitate innovation in the manufacturing sector. A fundamental requirement of innovation is the ability to be able to visualise manufacturing data, in order to disco
Performing dependability evaluation along with other analyses at architectural level allows both making architectural tradeoffs and predicting the effects of architectural decisions on the dependability of an application. This paper gives guidelines
There has been an intense concern for security alternatives because of the recent rise of cyber attacks, mainly targeting critical systems such as industry, medical, or energy ecosystem. Though the latest industry infrastructures largely depend on AI
As the industrial cyber-infrastructure become increasingly important to realise the objectives of Industry~4.0, the consequence of disruption due to internal or external faults become increasingly severe. Thus there is a need for a resilient infrastr
Insurance is one of the fundamental services offered to the citizens to reduce their costs and assist them in case of an emergency. One of the most important challenges in the insurance industry is to address liability challenge and the forging of do
