The introduction of Self-X capabilities into industrial control offers a tremendous potential in the development of resilient, adaptive production systems that enable circular economy. The Self-X capabilities, powered by Artificial Intelligence (AI), can monitor the production performance and enable timely reactions to problems or suboptimal operat...

The electric power system is transforming from a strict hierarchy into a distributed scheme that consists of prosumers and other service providers. Some services require interactions more complex than request-response. To reach functional interoperability, such services necessitate an agreement about what actions happen, in which order, and in whic...

The current advancements of energy, information, communication, and automation technologies and their integration have provided ways for the energy industry to transform into cleaner energy systems. This transition has contributed to the concept called energy internet. The recent energy technologies provide clean energy generation, storage and dema...

Modular co-simulation contributes to both engineering and research, but the earlier solutions have lacked the combination of platform independence, loose coupling between the modules, and tools for straightforward development. This paper describes the simulation platform SimCES (Simulation Environment of Complex Energy System) that solves these iss...

Conventional industrial communication systems suffer from rigidness, inflexibility and lack of scalability. The environment is heterogeneous as the systems exchange data with a variety communication protocols, some of which are proprietary. This makes it laborious and expensive to reconfigure or upgrade the systems. As the solution, this article pr...

The ease of software development, maintenance, commissioning and reconfiguration is paramount in industrial systems, because these must be adaptable to changes in customer demand and the evolution of production assets. Such adaptations are a core motivator in the fourth industrial revolution. Additionally, software applications should be able to co...

Due to the networked nature of modern industrial business, repeated information exchange activities are necessary. Unfortunately, information exchange is both laborious and expensive with the current communication media, which causes errors and delays. To increase the efficiency of communication, this study introduces an architecture to exchange in...

The article Information Exchange Architecture for Collaborative Industrial Ecosystem, written by Petri Kannisto, David Hästbacka and Arto Marttinen, was originally published electronically on the publisher’s internet portal (currently SpringerLink) on 15 August 2018 without open access.

The modern mobile machinery has advanced on-board computer systems. They may execute various types of applications observing machine operation based on sensor data (such as feedback generators for more efficient operation). Measurement data utilisation requires preprocessing before use (e.g. outlier detection or dataset categorisation). As more and...

To save the environment and costs, there is a clear need to optimise and coordinate large-scale industrial processes, but the task is challenging. Complex plants may run multiple unit processes that are operated with separate control systems, although the processes are interdependent. Often, optimisation requires appropriate scheduling for both con...

In mobile machines, as well as in manufacturing, the overall productivity is essential for business competitiveness. As the operation of a modern mobile machine is affected by various parameters, they need to be tuned to reach an optimal performance – however, due to machine complexity, parameter optimisation is difficult for a typical operator. To...

Performance improvement is a constantly important topic in manufacturing, and mobile work machines are no exception. In some mobile machines, machine behaviour is affected by various device parameters. Their effect can be examined by statistical analysis, but exploiting analysis results during machine operation requires a sophisticated distributed...

The performance of mobile machine operators has a great impact on productivity that can be translated to, for example, wasted time or environmental concerns such as fuel consumption. In this paper, solutions for improving the assessment of mobile machine are studied. Usage data is gathered from machines and utilized to provide feedback for operator...

Despite the importance of data management in modern automation, it is often the case that it does not receive enough attention to enable efficient business processes. There is a lot of diversity among the types of plant data: some data is generated at design time, some is retrieved from the manufacturing equipment and some is historic. Also, some d...

While striving to increase profits in global competition, companies are trying to improve efficiency and reduce costs by outsourcing and focusing on their core functions. For operation of industrial plants this often results in provision of services even for high-priority activities such as maintenance. Integration of external information systems a...
