Smart Digital Twin for ZDM-based job-shop scheduling
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
This research work considers an initial conceptual smart digital twin (SDT) framework for scheduling job-shop orders in a zero-defect manufacturing (ZDM) environment. The SDT virtually replicates the job-shop scheduling issue to simulate it and, based on the deep reinforcement learning (DRL) methodology, trains a prescriber agent and a process monitor. This simulation and training setting will facilitate analyses, optimization, defect and failure avoidance and, in short, decision making, to improve job-shop scheduling.

A Novel MILP Model for the Production, Lot Sizing, and Scheduling of Automotive Plastic Components on Parallel Flexible Injection Machines with Setup Common Operators
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
This paper proposes a mixed integer linear program (MILP) model for the production, lot sizing, and scheduling of automotive plastic components to minimize the setup, inventory, stockout, and backorder costs, by taking into account injection molds as the main index to schedule on parallel flexible injection machines. The proposed MILP considers the minimum and maximum inventory capacities and penalizes stockout. The MILP solves a lot-sizing and scheduling problem, emerged in a second-tier supplier of a real automotive supply chain.

Security Implications of Interoperability
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
The presented paper investigates the relationship between interoperability and system security. This is mainly an optimisation problem, since making a system interoperable means that some APIs need to be exposed, which can potentially open the system to malicious attacks. The paper explores the use of the System Security Modeller (SSM) tool which allows an assessment of the cost of interoperability by calculating the security risks. The security implications of interoperability are illustrated through a case study representing a smart manufacturing scenario.

Big Smart Data – Intelligent Operations, Analysis and Process
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
Many aspects of Industry 4.0 are only made possible by the Internet of Things. Data on production output and quality, operating status etc. can be monitored in real time, but can also be included in the planning and control of production. The scenarios for using this data differ in their degree of integration. In any case, big-data technologies are necessary to gain the full benefit from the data. One such benefit is the coupling of data analysis results from the Internet of Things, especially real-time analytics, with business processes.

A Technical Approach to Achieve Zero Defects Manufacturing Process in the ZDMP Project
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
This paper describes the technical approach to develop solutions to control manufacturing process quality, through the supporting services provided by the Zero Defects Manufacturing Platform (ZDMP). The approach is based on preventive and corrective strategies to avoid quality losses, by extracting meaningful insights from sensor data and other data sources. Quality Management is carried out at different stages along the manufacturing process, whereas ZDMP covers three stages: Pre-production, Production, and Production: Equipment Performance. The goal is to predict and prevent losses, provide deeper process insights and analytics, and learn from the decisions made to enhance process automation.

Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
This work addresses development process of solutions to control manufacturing product quality based on supporting services provided by the Zero Defect Manufacturing Platform. Solutions are of preventing and inspecting types, relying upon sensor data and other product and process information. Preventing strategies can be split into two different approaches: (i) prediction techniques relying on machine learning to model correlation between the product quality and data collected, and (ii) identification of anomalies and critical trends during production. In its turn, product inspection takes advantage of various types of visual sensors and processing tools allowing detection of a whole range of defects.

A Benchmarking of Reference Models for Digital Manufacturing Platforms
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
This paper presents a benchmarking of different reference models for Industry 4.0, using available alignment reports as a tool for benchmarking, a qualitative indicator to assess the relevance of the definitions in the different reference models, and an assessment using existing implementations and proposals as a starting point for future benchmark use cases. The main objective of the benchmark is to facilitate the adoption of reference models for the architectural definition of new digital manufacturing platforms. It can also be useful for the definition of new reference models for specific application domains or meta-models to map features of different reference models in a common framework.

Cyber-Physical Systems: a multi-criteria assessment for Internet-of-Things (IoT) systems
Publication Title :
Publication Abstract
This article addresses a multi-criteria decision problem regarding the more suitable device (system) to perform a task for cyber-physical systems. New embedded systems provided everyday makes engineers’ decision very difficult. Components are proposed to formally describe solutions, criteria, constraints and priorities, taking into account users’ specific aspects. To materialise all formal descriptions, a model-driven approach is followed, allowing the design of enablers for interoperability with standards. Proposed framework enables a better Internet-of-Things system selection, and therefore stakeholders can perform a more suitable design of their cyber-physical enterprise systems.
