The general goal of the project is to improve the efficiency, quality and traceability of production systems by means of introducing a high layer of control through the fog. In particular, the project will focus on the design and development of a complete architecture able to execute user-defined applications in terms of plant data acquisition, filtering, processing, establishing methods and developing tools for enabling fog-in-the-loop applications. To achieve the general goal, the project targets a set of specific...

The combination of Internet, intelligent machines, production systems and processes has derived in the fourth industrial revolution. This time, physical world is being seamlessly integrated into the productive processes through the network. The ‘Industry 4.0’ concept arises as a way to face the challenges of the fourth industrial revolution. But this concept is much more than the ‘internet of things’ or smart factory (both included in industry 4.0), as it emphasizes the idea of consistent...

The general aim of this project is to analyse the viability of the application of domain modelling techniques and components technologies to design and develop complex, distributed and reconfigurable applications. We will partilarly focus on the dynamic reconfiguration of applications in two different areas: distributed automatisation applications and distributed embedded applications. Thus, one of the aims of this project is to analyse the use of multi-view modelling techniques both for designing (specification) and...
