Title
Integration Of Ontologies To Support Control As A Service In An Industry 4.0 Context
Abstract
The fast development of the so-called shared economy as well as collaborative networked organization increases the call for responsive and strongly interconnected production and delivery systems. The closer connection of information systems and control systems has to be achieved, as "Industry 4.0" developed by leading industries in Europe, USA and Asia requires to set new IT models in order to support agile collaborative business processes and production control processes. Whereas the service-based organizations and technologies, such as Service-Oriented Architecture, Web 2.0, Cloud and Everything as a Service technologies as well as Business models, have been successfully deployed to support agile systems relying on service selection, composition and orchestration, only few works have addressed cloud-based control systems. Despite the flexibility provided by the Internet of Thing, the integration of Cyber-Physical systems (CPS) in production control system is limited due to their lack of interoperability. To overcome this limit and provide a smooth integration of CPS systems in collaborative production process control, we propose a service-based controlmodel integrating sensors, controllers and actuators. To support the Industry 4.0 digital transformation, including collaborative production process design and management, our Control as a Service model relies on control ontology. Our control ontology gathers IoT devices (sensors and actuators...) and services, including their functional and non-functional properties description. Then, a Control as a Service architecture is designed to facilitate the development of cloud control system via two steps: service pre-selection/pre-composition, event-driven and context-aware service orchestration. The measurement of three core components, data manager, event manager and context manager, shows the feasibility of application of our Control as a Service model/architecture in a supply chain temperature control use case.
